The program also supports independent mobile app developers who target providers and patients. App Orchard, for its part, lets developers use a FHIR-based API to access an Epic development sandbox. Previously, Epic wouldn’t let mobile app developers connect to its EMR until a customer requested permission on their behalf.
FHIR use cases, back-office process automation, advances in digital therapeutics, and the potential of generative AI all came up. Dr. Seth Eaton at pediatric provider MedPeds talked to Colin about using AI to read faxes, match them to patients, and insert the fax into the right record in the EHR.
Apple recently announced that its mobileHealth app will link to electronic health record (EHR) systems. This will allow patients/consumers access to their personal health record (PHR). FHIR is finally allowing true interoperability to become a reality.
Legacy EHR systems, reliant on traditional HL7 interfaces, are struggling to meet modern interoperability demands. Legacy EHR systems, heavily reliant on the 36+ year-old HL7 2.x FHIR , with its RESTful APIs, real-time capabilities, and granular data access, is better equipped to meet todays healthcare needs.
“Mobilehealth — the application of sensors, mobile apps, social media, and location-tracking technology to obtain data pertinent to wellness and disease diagnosis, prevention, and management — makes it theoretically possible to monitor and intervene whenever and wherever acute and chronic medical conditions occur.
The health care section of Mary Meeker’s 334-page annual report, Internet Trends 2019 , comprises 24 of those pages (270 through 293). For health care, the application of FHIR standards helps mobilize data for better health, turbocharging this trend.
