This requires a variety of technical strategies and ongoing collaboration for the industry to converge and embrace emerging standards for healthcare data interoperability, such as HL7 FHIR and the Argonaut Project. I got involved with the FHIR community early when I wrote the first open-source FHIR server.
I am especially excited about the latest standard from HL7 - FHIR. The FHIR standard leverages modern platforms and interaction models. It models the healthcare data-model using XML or JSON; and interaction-model using http REST.
In the first two posts, I covered how Redox is overcoming current limitations with bulk FHIR and translating data between HL7 ® v2 and HL7 ® FHIR ®.
