Thus, SAS Health Solutions offers a common data model, ingesting data from disparate sources of FHIR data into the appropriate fields for analysis. SAS will be adding more and more input formats, but initially is focused on FHIR. Most data about patients exists in EHRs or other repositories in a variety of legacy formats.
Interoperability for better outcomes and clinical advances. The goal of Azure Health Data Services is interoperability that drives better patient outcomes and clinical advances. The key to unlocking the data is interoperability across the entire health ecosystem. Healthcare IT News is a HIMSS Media publication. HIMSS22 Coverage.
Each of the teams with whom we collaborated did a stellar job with their pitch desks, business model articulation, and deployment of the latest technology – for example, chatbots working toward mental health and FHIR standards toward interoperability.
Plus, Wilder shares what he was hearing about the Trusted Exchange Framework and Common Agreement (TEFCA) at the HIMSS 2023 annual conference and offers up a few takeaways. FHIR, the API for automated data sharing, is mature and being adopted.
In a number of contexts, people are using FHIR in production to make or report on patient appointments. How to represent this in FHIR: Mark an appointment as a virtual appointment. Examples include telephone conference, email exchange, robotic surgery, and televideo conference. All of this is happening very rapidly.
Certainly AI us currently doing that in health IT, but in the world of interoperability TEFCA and QHINs are grabbing all of the attention. There are a lot of views on TEFCA, but the one thing that’s certain is that it’s grabbing a lot of the interoperability focus from government regulators and the industry.
At the HLTH conference last month, I had a chance to talk with Ricky Sahu, CEO at 1upHealth. For those not familiar with 1upHealth, the provide a FHIR platform for payers, providers, and developers.
They also discuss how FHIR and TEFCA are helping the cause.
