HIE future bright -- FHIR API to Document Sharing

Healthcare Exchange Standards

I think the most useful value-add that an HIE can add is an API that is based on FHIR.

Healthcare Exchange Standards

My point in this article is that this does not need to be a restriction on those that do want to move on to FHIR. Just add FHIR FHIR is a content format.
