SQL on FHIR 2.1 flagged for March release - Pulse+IT
A representative indicated that SQL on FHIR 2.1 is scheduled for release in March.
Summary
The SQL on FHIR working group is targeting a March timeframe for the release of SQL on FHIR 2.1. This update aims to standardize how FHIR data is flattened and queried specifically for analytical purposes.
Details
The SQL on FHIR working group has set its sights on releasing version 2.1 by March. The core focus of this effort is standardizing the process of flattening and querying FHIR data when it is used for analytics. This timeline was announced by Nikolai Ryzhikov, CTO of Health Samurai, during a recent online conference titled 'Analytics on FHIR®'. FHIR itself is an international standard for exchanging electronic health information. SQL on FHIR extends this capability by providing structured querying power over the data. As the demand for utilizing complex healthcare data in analytics grows, this version update is crucial for establishing a unified foundation to handle diverse datasets and derive advanced insights. For Japan's healthcare IT sector, where the need for analyzing structured data—such as electronic medical records or claims data—is rapidly increasing due to digital transformation (DX), FHIR-based querying capabilities are vital. They represent a key element in accelerating both data interoperability and AI utilization within the Japanese healthcare landscape.
