Our desire for data liquidity has eluded us across the health/care ecosystem for too long, notwithstanding American taxpayers’ $35 bn investment in EHRs dating to the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 that embedded the HITECH Act funding EHR adoption for hospitals and physician practices.
FHIR and APIs. New proposed standards for interoperability and new FHIR standards for letting systems share health information, as well as facilitating patient access through open APIs, recently made waves through the healthcare landscape. In fact, 2018 had more phishing attacks than ever before in healthcare.
App Orchard, for its part, lets developers use a FHIR-based API to access an Epic development sandbox. 2018 Digital Health Prediction 2: Voice technology will be the first step to personalising pharma. In Q1 2017 Epic launched a new program App Orchard – serving physician practices and hospitals to help them build customized apps.
This familiar scene exemplifies the unnecessary burdens traditional EHRs have placed on providers, patients, and the overall healthcare system. As a former ER physician and current digital health professional, I’ve dealt with these challenges firsthand—and see the enormous potential EHRs hold to change care experiences for the better.
As we enter the 8th week of 2018, I wanted to share my thoughts on what I see as the cutting edge, emerging, developing and mature technologies from around the digital health world visualised in a "Digital Health Hype Cycle 2018" infographic.
I’m very honoured to make a guest today from Mike Morris, who I met at the HL7 FHIR Applications Round Table in Washington DC a couple of weeks ago. Mike is a cancer patient who is using FHIR improve his own treatment. My white blood cell count was so low in January 2018, I had to go to the ER, chemo destroyed my blood counts.
expect to see an Apple electronic health record in 2018 or 2019. FHIR is a standards framework featuring a RESTful API designed to enable the exchange of health care information between applications and systems. What is the Argonaut Project?
On January 10, 2019, Jim Cramer of CNBC’s Mad Money recommended that Apple buy Epic, a market leader in EHRs. A few of my favorite comments were: “Jim Cramer needs a crash course in FHIR standards” from the wonkier section of peanut gallery. I found this tweet of mine from 2009 about Apple and Epic’s collaboration for a mobile EHR.
Founded in 2018, Myndshft is the only unified platform that streamlines prior authorization and related services for both medical and pharmacy benefits. Managing PAs is a significant burden on medical practices because of time-consuming manual processes and lack of integration with electronic health record (EHR) systems. and Canada.
In fact, survey results published in early 2018 concluded that 80% of the organizations they surveyed had begun to track and use SDOH data. For the last few years, a growing number of healthcare organizations have been integrating information on social determinants of health into their population health management efforts.
The good news is that FHIR has a Document model, and the FHIR Document model has a directly convertible data model A FHIR Document travels an HIE easily CDA will fade, but never disappear. Up to now we have focused on getting EHR to publish or simply make available the data they have. It is just way too hard to get right.

Amwell offers a suite of APIs, web services and SDKs to seamlessly embed telehealth into an organization’s existing digital assets, such as Cerner, Epic and other EHRs, in order to enable providers to work directly in the EHR for a streamlined experience. Mend has customers across the spectrum of healthcare specialties.
In the first two posts, I covered how Redox is overcoming current limitations with bulk FHIR and translating data between HL7 ® v2 and HL7 ® FHIR ®. We have been a Carequality implementer since 2018 and more than 6,000 organizations are connected to Carequality via Redox Access. Let’s dive in. What is Carequality?
I discussed the current state of the EHR with Michael Nissenbaum of Aprima. The EHR has always been a data collection tool, a mechanism for data aggregation. Aprima belongs to CommonWell, has done some FHIR development, and Michael would like to see Congress condition Medicare reimbursement on real interoperability.

Upcoming information blocking rulemaking and the final version of TEFCA are due out by the end of 2018 (so we will all have some reading material to get to). Leslie sees development of open APIs, of FHIR, to be positive, but not yet the dominant reality, in terms of widespread adoption and use. David Harlow. The Harlow Group LLC.

Both use IHE XCPD and XCA standard CommonWell -- a EHR vendor consortium. Payer access with WISHIN will become a reality Q1-2018 The underlying standard (XCA) is designed to support many kinds of access, most exposed by the PurposeOfUse assertion. Very minor mention of FHIR. Both are managed by Sequoia Project.
As part of my advisory position on SHIFT Shift (formerly Protecting Privacy to Promote Interoperability PP2PI) was founded in 2018 and formalized in 2020 with a mission to advance safe, equitable, and patient-empowered sharing of health information. So I now end up reviewing and commenting on very targeted sections. Why do I express this?
“Integration of Sensor, Smartphone, and Electronic Health Record (EHR) Data for Patients and Clinicians. That said, integration with the electronic health record (EHR) is currently extremely challenging and costly. 44 FHIR allows external third-party apps to integrate into the EHR workflow.
These two dozen exhibits detail growing adoption of digital tech in health care, the growth of genomics and EHR adoption, examples of these tools from “A” (Apple) to “Z” (Zocdoc), and on the last page of that chapter, medical spending in the U.S., the highest in raw and per capita numbers versus the rest of the world.
A Bright Future for EHRs and Telehealth. Today, most EHRs and telehealth systems integrate data, transporting patient demographic, financial, medical and visit information back and forth between systems using protocols like HL7.
