This study proposes a novel 'BlockMed' framework to address the interoperability challenges of Electronic Health Records (EHRs) using blockchain technology. This framework supports major standards like HL7 and FHIR and is evaluated across multiple dimensions, including data accuracy and security management.
OpenMRS Inc. released Ozone HIS version 1.0.0-alpha.12. This version significantly improves overall interoperability and extensibility by providing a unified, standards-based interface through its FHIR API.
An article by Mark L. Braunstein discusses how HL7's new API is transforming the healthcare sector. This technological advancement suggests playing a critical role in the field of health informatics.
The 'Strategy Day' event, held on June 4, 2025, is designed for healthcare and healthtech decision-makers. Attendees will discuss the strategic adoption of FHIR, international regulatory trends (EU/US), and comparisons with openEHR to shape the future of health IT.
The community has released the 'DHIS2 FHIR IG Generator App 1.2.0,' a tool for generating FHIR Implementation Guides (IGs). This makes it easier for developers to build highly interoperable systems.
This article introduces how clinical data can be integrated and analyzed using InterSystems OMOP. Specifically, it features Qi Li explaining the process of converting clinical data from HL7 FHIR to the OMOP format and its impact on clinical research.
Onye Inc held an online event detailing how to transform paper medical records into digital data compatible with the FHIR format. The event highlighted the importance of digitizing and standardizing healthcare data.
eHealth Exchange showcased the latest technological innovations related to FHIR at HIMSS25. The event focused on advancing data exchange and interoperability in the healthcare sector.
At HIMSS25, Health Samurai will showcase solutions for various healthcare challenges, including data interoperability and AI utilization. Attendees can learn how a FHIR-based platform contributes to accelerating clinical trials, optimizing workflows, and enabling international medical collaboration through live demos at the booth.
InterSystems announced the results of its latest FHIR performance benchmarking tests via the developer community. The video features Patrick Jamieson and Adarsh Banad, who explain the detailed verification findings.
This article explains how to generate custom responses for non-existent Binary resources (e.g., PDFs) when accessed via an FHIR repository using InterSystems IRIS's interoperability production and business processes. This is a technical case study demonstrating advanced system control.
This demo, by Laura BlΓ‘zquez GarcΓa, demonstrates how to create a FHIR repository, set up its endpoint, and connect it to an interoperability production environment. It specifically focuses on the process of generating custom responses when a request for a Binary resource is made.
This article explains how to implement custom responses for specific resources (e.g., Binary) that may not exist in a standard FHIR repository, using InterSystems IRIS Interoperability Production. The developer demonstrates that by utilizing business processes and dedicated logic, a system can generate a response containing unique file content based on the requested document ID.
Google Cloud's API details how to delete specific FHIR operations (Operations). This provides a technical methodology for executing bulk data deletion requests based on the FHIR specification.
Data standards remain crucial even in the era of LLMs, with FHIR at its core. Surveys from HL7 and analysis of US policy trends indicate that regulatory efforts to ensure interoperability are advancing globally.
The author published survey results regarding FHIR, pointing out that healthcare professionals and developers tend to work with a limited set of FHIR resource types specific to their domain. Although 145 diverse resource types exist, most experts are sufficient with only 6-20 types, suggesting that deep understanding within a specialized area is more valuable than broad knowledge.
HL7 FHIR has released the specification for the 'ResearchSubject' resource, version 4.0.1. This model structures critical elements of clinical trial participation, such as study periods and status, contributing to standardized data exchange.
