The following is a guest article by Jay Nakashima, President at eHealth Exchange An FDA project aims to make it as easy as possible for clinicians to report adverse drug events and share important clinical data with public health agencies to investigate the event.
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 healthinformation. WHY IT MATTERS. "Developers have to build their own secure pipelines from scratch. THE LARGER TREND. ON THE RECORD.
In the USA and elsewhere, there are Document Sharing based HealthInformation Exchanges. They also have mature testing tools, events, and have been specialized for many projects. They also have mature testing tools, events, and have been specialized for many projects. Just add FHIRFHIR is a content format.
There is also a big push for increasing a patient’s autonomy around their personal healthinformation and the access they have to it, especially via personal devices which are likely to be used in the future to communicate directly with providers, if they aren’t already. FHIR and APIs.
Most of the data that we are looking to share is highly sensitive healthinformation, the kind of information that cybercriminals love to hold for ransom. Taking a deeper look, privacy, and security of health data are critical to ensure that care is provided in and with confidence. The following is what they had to share.
The key to unlocking the data is interoperability across the entire health ecosystem. Microsoft took a step to address health data interoperability with Azure API for FHIR in 2019. The company's next evolution of that journey is Azure Health Data Services. Email the writer: bsiwicki@himss.org. HIMSS22 Coverage.
This profile shows how to build a Document Sharing Exchange using IHE profiled FHIR® standard, rather than the legacy IHE profiles that is dominated by XDS and HL7® v2. The MHDS Profile specifies how a collection of IHE profiles can be used by communities for exchanging healthinformation. 3 - Section 4.0 3 - Section 4.0

Sign Up for our daily or weekly newsletters Patient experience: new perspectives on person-focused care Full coverage: HIMSS22 APAC Health Conference News 5 sessions to look out for at HIMSS23 APAC Healthcare IT News’ APAC Managing Editor weighs in on the sessions he's looking forward.
The event will bring health care industry leaders together to share ideas and best practices around improving healthinformation exchange and interoperability. DirectTrust is pleased to announce the inaugural DirectTrust Summit to be held at the Marriott Suites Midtown in Atlanta, GA, June 10-11.
This is an update of what is going on in Security and Privacy in, and around, the FHIR specification. This is an update of what is going on in Security and Privacy in, and around, the FHIR specification. GDPR driven activities: The Security WG has done an assessment of FHIR in the context of GDPR.
This winter quarter will be a lighter load, recognizing the holidays: Patient Scheduling, prospective look at FHIR R5/6, and evaluating impact of Gender Harmony. In a similar way to the DSUB profile, a subscription is made in order to receive a notification when a document publication event matches the criteria expressed in the subscription.
Just a few weeks ago, CommonWell was announced as one of six applicants—along with eHealth Exchange, Epic TEFCA Interoperability Systems, Health Gorilla, Kno2 and Konza— accepted to continue in the onboarding process to become a Qualified HealthInformation Network (QHIN) under TEFCA. I feel it throughout the industry now.
The overall models between XD* and FHIR are the same. Centralized Administration In XDS This architecture is long standing Document Sharing HealthInformation Exchange based around PIX and XDS. Digital-Signatures might be more likely to succeed in a Controlled Exchange. A directory could be used like HPD or CSD.
That will make HIMSS less helpful than not having the event. The purpose of the agreement is to help accelerate the development of new and updated IHE profiles and associated real world testing that support advancing FHIR. Demonstrate how organizations can engage providers using FHIR and FHIR-based apps.
Consequences for non-participation are currently unclear, although providers may be cited for non-compliance with federal information blocking regulations which, according to the recent HHS proposed rule could be up to $1 million per violation. Of note, the XCPD, XCA, and XDR profiles do not currently support FHIR natively.
As always, there have been a lot of new products and partnerships announced at the event, with a heavy emphasis on generative AI, and we wanted to try and cover as much as we could for the Healthcare IT Today community. You can also visit our HIMSS23 page to see all our coverage of health IT’s biggest event.
We approved for Public Comment three brand new Supplements Adding a FHIR AuditEvent feed capability to the ATNA profile. Thus the ATNA profile would now include a Query on AuditEvent to support reporting and alerting applications, and now a Feed (RESTful Create) of AuditEvent to support applications recording audit events.
To seamlessly obtain information from various systems, healthcare data exchange standards are essential. Healthtech providers can adopt HL7 (Health Level Seven) or FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources). This will prevent information loss in the event of cyberattacks or malfunctions.
On Friday last week, an article by Wendy John was published by Wild Health , in which I’m quoted as saying, regarding the My Health Record and the Strengthening Medicare Taskforce report : FHIR guru Grahame Grieve has advocated for interoperability standards in healthcare for over two decades. But will it work?
Add an ITI-65 FHIR Documents Publish option with support in ITI-65 to include a FHIR Document Bundle as an alternative to Binary. Converted from PDF to a FHIR IG. Added in conformance resources and Basic AuditAudit events with examples. Each of these new options may survive or may be removed. was released.
Patient engagement platforms in healthcare are instrumental in enabling patients to securely communicate with their healthcare providers, access their health records, and receive personalized healthinformation.
Eden Avraham-Katz, VP of Legal & Compliance at 1upHealth While I appreciate the efforts to simplify the prior authorization process with FHIR APIs, the underlying issues with prior authorization are fundamentally systemic. This critical information can help identify or avoid serious adverse events, including hospital readmissions.
A truly effective interoperability ecosystem should provide an information infrastructure that uses technical standards, policies, and protocols to enable seamless and secure capture, discovery, exchange, and utilization of healthinformation, with appropriate controls to ensure proper and effective use.
Leslie sees development of open APIs, of FHIR, to be positive, but not yet the dominant reality, in terms of widespread adoption and use. Some CHIME members are leveraging FHIR today, but not all are doing it as robustly as possible. She notes that “The CIO’s battle cry is ‘Standards!’”

It takes time to write a programming library that can extract each field from an EHR and present it to an outside program, even given the modern FHIR standard (itself complex and evolving). In short, Real Time is typical of a very hot, fast-growing area of analytics in health care. ” Now let’s turn back to Real Time v.
A truly effective interoperability ecosystem will provide a unified infrastructure that uses technical standards, policies, and protocols to enable seamless and secure capture, discovery, exchange, and utilization of healthinformation, with appropriate controls to ensure proper and effective use.
Blockchain's interoperability could underpin data exchange, serving as an alternative to today's healthinformation exchanges (HIEs); essentially, it would act as a mesh network for transmitting secure, near real-time patient data for healthcare providers, pharmacies, insurance payers and clinical researchers, according to IDC.
Clinical Service Provides direct access to a patient’s health record, as provided by a healthcare service provider ( provides direct healthcare services for the consumer as a patient e.g. a GP / hospital). A consumer is able to control access at a very fine grained level, in advance of any information sharing that happens. Governance.
