Harm responded that these health IT professionals should ask more from their single-source vendor such as demanding interoperability that is user-experience grade. This could translate into the health IT customer demanding the use of standards such as FHIR, to enable greater interoperability and appification of the EHR (my word).This

The Trusted Exchange Framework and Common Agreement (TEFCA) was followed recently by the HealthData, Technology, and Interoperability: Certification Program Updates, Algorithm Transparency, and Information Sharing (HTI-1) Final Rule. Patients will have access to data and can share it across healthcare systems.
That speaks to Steve’s phrase, “ecosystem of ecosystems,” because that’s not just “digital” health — that’s now the true nature of health/care, and what is driving connectivity toward interoperability, cloud computing, and the adoption of APIs to enable healthdata liquidity.
Telehealth in the pandemic was, in Philips’ words, “crucial but underused” Interoperability is still an obstacle, and, Digital technology will be pivotal in the next few years. The top-line findings across the five countries were that, Younger physicians remain, mostly, committed to the profession in the crisis.

The growing use of APIs in health information technology innovation for patient care has been a boon to speeding development placed in the hands of providers and patients. Using APIs can help drive interoperability and make data “liquid” and useable.
While there have been many events on interoperability and data sharing, what’s unique here is our focus on the BUSINESS rationale for healthdata sharing. • Hoarding data is not only bad for business but can be catastrophic in a crisis. Robert Havasy, Senior Director, ConnectedHealth, HIMSS.

Some observers say there are ulterior motives – for instance see these 30 seconds of Yale cardiologist Harlan Krumholz at ConnectedHealth 2016, on how a health system CEO told him flat out: “You don’t understand – why would we want to make it easy for people to get their healthdata?
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. What makes a good hack, anyway?
The PHTI notes many benefits from using digital health, organized in this second chart captured from the report: For patients, the ability to self-care at home, more timely and convenient access to services (both primary and specialty care), improving medication management, and enhancing the healthcare experience (when well-designed).
The HRS/CTA guidelines offer pros and cons of wearable tech, providing a balanced view on the current state of efficacy, quality, and physician willingness to accept consumers’ use of digital health tools. On the “pro” side of the equation are, Immediate access to real-time healthdata. Unproven benefits.
We can extend my air travel metaphor and say that a nationwide network makes it easier for a traveler, in this case, patient data, to get from one end of the country to another safely and on time. Once TEFCA and the QHINs reach critical mass, we will be a much more connectedhealth system. What are you excited for at ViVE2023?
To address inclusive AI and help deal with the algorithmic under-served challenge, TRAIN is also collaborating with OCHIN , which partners with community health centers and supports the largest collection of community healthdata in the U.S.;
