Details
This bootcamp is a hands-on training program designed to systematically teach complex FHIR resource specifications and implementation guides. Participants build five distinct applications over 10 weeks to acquire practical skills. The curriculum covers diverse topics, including patient management apps (REST API operations), displaying EHR information via SMART on FHIR integration with Epic, similar functionality in Cerner environments, backend application development using the Epic sandbox, and implementing FHIR Facades. This structure allows learners to gain practical problem-solving skills beyond mere theory, covering real-world challenges such as connecting with actual medical systems (Epic, Cerner), data retrieval/manipulation (CRUD operations), and handling large-scale data streaming. Furthermore, the program incorporates weekly open sessions and mentor feedback, providing a structure for community learning and support.
