Microsoft is previewing its new Azure IoT Connector for FHIR, an API feature that enables healthcare organizations to scale secure connectivity for an array of devices streaming protected health information. WHY IT MATTERS. "Developers have to build their own secure pipelines from scratch. THE LARGER TREND. ON THE RECORD.
FHIR DevDays Amsterdam/Europe edition is coming up soon: November 17-20. I didn’t just write this blog post to flog the DevDays event, much as I love it. And, of course, it’s in the european timezone, though there’s also a session specially scheduled for a friendly time in Asia/Pac. LMICs discount.
One of the SMA objectives is to consider the Conference in advance and offer thoughts about what we’ll expect, which I did here in the HIMSS blog space. The cloud and FHIR standards are fostering a new era of interoperability in health care.
I am getting excited to give two IHE on FHIR tutorials at FHIR DevDays in Boston. The FHIR DevDays event is focused on educating IT professionals in the newest standard in healthcare, FHIR – Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources. My blog articles on the topic of FHIR , Document Sharing , and Privacy
Over the next several weeks I will release a series of blogs highlighting the way Redox is helping our customers overcome these gaps to uncover the possible. Up first: Using bulk FHIR. What is bulk FHIR? That’s where bulk FHIR comes in. bulk FHIR is a significant step closer to that.
This year marked my inaugural voyage to HL7® FHIR® DevDays , alongside my Redox colleagues, Autumn Ike , and Mike Paetz. This blog represents our collective Top 5 takeaways from this year’s 4-day affair. This expert community built around FHIR is as collectively passionate as they are incredibly knowledgeable.
A survey published in JAMIA found 73% of digital health vendors are using standards-based FHIR APIs when integrating with EHR systems. The news isn’t all good, as ONC noted in a blog post , as 68% of vendors are also using some form of proprietary APIs as well.
Introducing GlobalMed’s New Interoperability Tools. But this kind of integration isn’t complete and it definitely doesn’t enable interoperability. And when it comes to running a robust and clinically responsible telemedicine program , interoperability is vital. We’ll explain more about that in upcoming blog posts.
There’s a thread running on chat.fhir.org about the FHIR JSON format. In FHIR, the base types are called ‘primitive types’ – things such as ‘string’, ‘integer’, ‘boolean’ etc. This thread needs some background, so here goes… Background. Current JSON Form.
I blogged half as many articles as last year, and yet my readership only dropped by 16%. I wish I had more than 28 blog articles this year to give you. Falling mostly in the category of FHIR, Consent/AccessControl, or De-Identification. I am amazed at all you loyal readers. I hope that they were useful.
This is a cross-post from my personal blog. The organizers of the FHIR #DevDays conference next month have announced the four finalists who will come to Amsterdam to present their ideas to a panel of judges. In contrast to this, the HL7 FHIR organization said explicitly this June that #FHIR exists to serve patient needs.
OVERVIEW: This webinar examines specific ways that EHR interoperability and electronic health records systems integration can deliver a range of benefits to remote patient monitoring (RPM) for driving improved care coordination.
The topic is about a vision of how things could/should be at the point of care because of successful interoperability. Historically discussions in Health IT have been around very basic interoperability fundamentals. These things are accelerated by FHIR and US-Core. The whole purpose of Interoperability MUST be for some end goal.
Interoperable Consent Standards My main focus is on enabling Health Information to flow given proper Security and Privacy. I have been involved (sometimes lead) the efforts to define an Interoperable Standard for these use-cases in IHE for Document Sharing Exchanges (BPPC, APPC, XUA), and in CDA (CDA Consent), and in FHIR (FHIR Consent).
But this kind of integration isn’t complete and it definitely doesn’t enable interoperability. And when it comes to running a robust and clinically responsible telemedicine program , interoperability is vital. Essentially, we’re enabling interoperability in telemedicine so you can deliver full-service virtual care. Contact Us.
As a healthcare innovator, Intermountain has worked diligently to put in place both patient-facing and back-end integrations needed for successful enterprise-wide telehealth interoperability. For example, we leverage a lot of FHIR APIs to pull information from Cerner and communicate that with DFD.
Interoperability is an overlapping set of technical and policy challenges, from data access to common data models to information exchange to workflow integration – and these challenges often pose a barrier to healthcare innovation. Microsoft has been engaged for many years on developing best practices for interoperability across industries.
Two and a half years ago I wrote my first blog at Redox. My debut focused on how the CMS proposed Interoperability and Prior Authorization rule would dramatically improve prior authorization processes with electronic processing via APIs. can also opt to use a FHIR-only exchange for prior authorization going forward.
This should be of value to servers implementing an IPS endpoint as well as useful to FHIR beginners as it has a number of useful visualizations. I’m also going to use Node-RED to create an IPS document from a FHIR server using a ‘facade’ pattern. IG’s are the ‘next big thing’ for FHIR.
Live blogging notes during meeting. 10B contract w/Cerner = HUGE opportunity, 1ce in a lifetime, to rally around and use it to make something BE interoperable, and show the way to the rest of the healthcare landscape on how to do it. VA Lighthouse update. Open Q&A / Townhall style discussion. No rules, unconference. OpenAPI pledge.
I’ll start this blog in the same way that I started my talk : I am not a generative AI expert. A tremendous milestone in itself, Google has been able to structure all of their tooling in HL7 ® Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR ® ), ensuring standardized use and avoiding implementation scatter.
Nikhil Krishnan, founder of Out of Pocket Health—and a treasured source of healthtech comic relief—recently published two blogs: one with his own predictions, and another featuring some of his readers’ predictions. Original prediction: We won’t see accelerated adoption of interoperability standards (e.g.,
2022 Predictions for Healthcare Interoperability – A third predictions post doing so well. Does this mean people cared about RPM and Healthcare Interoperability the most in 2022? Where Are We At With FHIR? The State of Interoperability – COVID and Beyond. Big Bet on FHIR Pays Off.
News In a blog post, ONC highlighted trends in patient access to electronic health information. Partnerships Darena Solutions, Leidos, and SLI Compliance unveiled a verification process for AI applications built using SMART on FHIR standards. Home care EMR software maker Smartcare Software rebranded as Aaniie.
I am very pleased with my chapter in the book, 32 pages: "Interoperability Within and Across Healthcare Systems". Much of the material comes from my blog, but even that had to be rewritten to fit the editorial style of a book. I expect an update in a year to add chapters on FHIR. I am honored to be among them.
Who best to reach out to than those who understand and are interested in what I do through following my blog. My philosophy is that Interoperability Standards are not a destination, they are a catalyst that enables something far greater to happen. I am especially excited about the latest standard from HL7 - FHIR.
I am short on ideas of topics that I should elaborate on in a blog article. I look at and respond to Comments anywhere on my blog, but I recognize that some don't like google's requirement for google account. All questions and suggestions posted are subject to this Blog's Policies. It costs you nothing. I might not even answer.
These standards organizations focus on health informatics interoperability, they are not experts in CyberSecurity. My HL7 FHIR Security and Privacy Education track. I covered risk in a blog article 12 years ago , and it is still relevant. See the 2023 HL7 Cyber Security Event with all recordings available now.
I have the great honor to be hosting a panel discussion in Washington DC as part of the Office of the National Coordinator's 2nd Interoperability Forum. Example is Apple adopting FHIR. Ideal Patient Centered Privacy Here are my notes extracted from my blog on Privacy Principles. This event is, next week, August 6-8. Provenance?

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. This first step is critical to Interoperability. This first step is critical to Interoperability.
While the underlying FHIR (aka, fast healthcare interoperability resource) deployed by DeepMind for Streams uses an open API, the contract between the company and the Royal Free Trust funnels connections via DeepMind’s own servers, and prohibits connections to other FHIR servers.
ONC published a blog post highlighting how to meet the 2015 Edition Cures Update requirements for ONC certification. 31 deadline for meeting requirements for FHIR-based API standardization. CareCloud earned ONC certification for two EHRs , VertexDR and talkEHR, for compliance with 21st Century Cures Act interoperability requirements.
Managing diverse IT needs and supplier contracts can drive up costs, despite advancements in interoperability standards like FHIR. Functionality and cost : Fragmented functionality in legacy systems hinders tasks like test ordering or appointment scheduling.
I imagine a federated set of systems – that is, an eco-system of services run by multiple organizations that have common governance, policy and interoperability standards. Serves at least the FHIR Argonaut (AU) interface (clinical summary and clinical documents) but may provide additional services (see below). Conclusion.
This blog post by Dr Joe Kvedar reflecting on Apple’s Health Record announcement makes for interesting reading ( I’m very optimistic about what this means for Patients and Carers ). mHealth Insight. “To quote Yogi Berra, “It’s déjà vu all over again.” Or so it seems.
