A healthcare informatics expert offers comprehensive support for technical challenges and interoperability risks in system development, focusing on HL7 FHIR. Services range from training to architecture design and governance establishment, providing implementation support with a global perspective.
As Artificial Intelligence (AI) becomes prevalent in healthcare, the challenge has shifted beyond mere system connectivity to sharing 'data meaning.' Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) is increasing its strategic importance, evolving from a simple interoperability standard into a foundational platform for AI to understand and apply clinical data.
The digital patient journey encompasses the entire process, from prevention and symptom recording through diagnosis, treatment, and remote monitoring. Ensuring structured and reusable health data throughout this continuum is key to maximizing healthcare value.
As patient data becomes a high-value 'digital asset,' the core challenge is how to protect ownership rights, capture valid consent, and securely exchange records across providers and researchers. The scope extends beyond traditional EHRs to include wearable data and access rights themselves.
When adopting a health app, verification from multiple angles—including 'clinical evidence,' 'privacy protection,' 'security,' and 'interoperability'—is essential, not just design or features. This article provides a comprehensive checklist for evaluating the trustworthiness of digital health apps.
FPT unveiled the 'MediSight' AI framework, designed for medical institutions and pharmaceutical companies. This system aims to automate clinical and administrative processes while adhering to diverse healthcare information standards like FHIR and HL7.
Health Samurai introduces 'Aidbox,' a FHIR-native backend platform. It supports the development of advanced healthcare software, including clinical data repositories and EHR systems.
Haici Health provides a hybrid architecture compliant with HL7 and FHIR standards. It utilizes AI to achieve advanced clinical decision support while maintaining control over data locality.
Vorro provides comprehensive compliance management services to help healthcare organizations navigate complex changes in standards and regulations. It specializes in handling standard updates (like FHIR and HL7) and regulatory changes (such as CMS/ONC), aiming to reduce continuous operational risk for systems.
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) proposes a hybrid architecture that separates local hospital integration from broad, enterprise-level data exchange. This approach enables modern healthcare interoperability—utilizing FHIR APIs and AI services—while allowing organizations to maintain existing system investments.
The code system browser provided by NIH offers integrated management and reference for diverse medical terminologies, such as UMLS. It details the relationship with international standards like FHIR and LOINC, providing foundational information crucial for data interoperability in Japanese healthcare IT.
This article introduces a technical pipeline that converts meal photos into nutrition logs and transforms them into FHIR resources usable by medical systems. By adopting LLM output validation and streaming processing, it achieves both reliability and user experience.
FHIR provides a clinical information layer across the entire radiology workflow—from ordering to image acquisition and reporting. This integration connects orders, images, and reports seamlessly, enabling comprehensive patient care.
eHealth Infrastructure has released a new FHIR-based operation definition, 'Schedule patient devices'. This allows the bulk retrieval of multiple medical device records (Device, DeviceUseStatement, DeviceMetrics) grouped by EpisodeOfCare.
Microsoft announced the retirement of Azure API for FHIR, a service providing FHIR data services, on September 30, 2026. Healthcare IT teams must prioritize identifying all system endpoint references and dependencies over simply migrating data.
The Ministry of Health and Welfare's Information Department shared its digital health progress with the CEO of Australia's MSIA. Taiwan's
The transmission of lab results from analyzers to the EHR relies on the HL7 v2 ORU message flow. This process structures patient demographics and measured values, making them available quickly and accurately at the point of care.
Care Code 600 has established a foundational framework for interoperability, ethics, and data stewardship in the digital health sector. It sets technical and procedural requirements designed to ensure smooth data flow while respecting patient autonomy.
Nikolai Ryzhikov of Health Samurai held a workshop at FHIR DevDays 2025 regarding "SQL on FHIR." This specification explains how to flatten nested FHIR data and convert it into queryable, tabular format.
eHealth Infrastructure published the CodeSystem 'Request Status' to clarify the status of medical requests. This defines which stage an electronic procedure is in, aiding interoperability improvements in Japanese healthcare IT.
