ミッドランド・メモリアル病院のデータアーキテクトは、ヘルスケア分野における情報共有が政策目標ほど進んでおらず、依然として断片化している現状を指摘。FHIRなどの標準規格が進む一方で、日常的な臨床データ交換ではレガシーなHL7 v2メッセージや手動プロセスに依存する脆弱性が残っている。
AWS announced Amazon Connect Health, an agentic AI service that autonomously performs multi-step tasks like clinical documentation and patient insights directly at the point of care. This helps clinicians reclaim time spent on administrative work for direct patient care.
This study proposes a method to predict the risk of 30-day hospital readmission in Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNF) by utilizing interoperable Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) data and an explainable machine learning model. The analysis was conducted using de-identified FHIR-mapped data from 14,250 SNF residents, incorporating medication, vital signs, functional status, and social risk indicators.
When mid-market hospitals integrate EHR and claims data, simple technical pipelines are insufficient. This article explains a governance-first approach using Databricks that embeds 'consent' and the 'Minimum Necessary' standard into the data collection and usage stages, adhering to regulations like HIPAA.
AmericaWest Medical Transportation launched its non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) services as a SMART on FHIR app. This allows affiliated health systems to schedule and manage patient transport directly within the Epic Electronic Health Record, significantly improving operational efficiency.
