The Ministry of Health announced plans to achieve data format interoperability for electronic medical records across all academic medical centers in Taiwan by the end of this year. This effort aims to resolve the 'medical data silo' problem using the Smart on FHIR standard architecture.
衛福部は、医療現場の効率化と質の向上を目指し、全国的な健康情報システムのデジタル変革を進めている。今年からSMART on FHIRアーキテクチャ導入を開始し、電子病歴の跨院・跨システム連携を可能にする。
Shanghai Xinghe Software won an LIS system interface upgrade project at Fujian Medical University First Affiliated Hospital. They proposed their self-developed V5.0 version, demonstrating technical advantages such as support for international standards (HL7, FHIR) and the integration of an AI diagnostic module.
LangCare has released the specification for an FHIR server implementation (`langcare-mcp-fhir`) designed for Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems like Epic and Cerner. The version 2.0.4 schema defines the structure of this Model Context Protocol (MCP) FHIR server, written in Go.
Cendien provides seamless data exchange solutions based on standards like HL7 and FHIR, connecting systems such as EHRs, labs, pharmacies, and payers. This improves the completeness of patient history, reduces duplicate tests, and accelerates care decisions, thereby enhancing overall quality of care.
The author, working on health data interoperability in Indonesia, implemented an AI agent to automate the creation of complex FHIR templates. This significantly reduces the time required for building massive JSON templates (up to 320 resources), which previously took several days or even a week.
David Hay has published a series of presentations focused on FHIR implementation and development within the context of New Zealand's Electronic Health Record (EHR). These materials cover a wide range of topics, from clinician-focused usage to developer and architect guides, demonstrating standardization and practical application for healthcare information exchange.
A lecturer from Rafael Mayoral Kempteneko University (Spain) gave a lecture at the Public University of Navarre (NUP). The focus was on clinical information systems, covering medical data interoperability and management, with practical learning centered around the HL7 FHIR standard.
Canvas Medical released the latest guides for its EMR system's SDK and FHIR API. Key updates include improved support for FAX event history and programmatic delegation/signing within automated workflows.
SIIM discusses the implications of adding 'Diagnostic Imaging Reference' to USCDI Version 7. This enables standardized information access for diagnostic images, highlighting efforts to solve challenges in existing standards like DICOM and HL7.
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released a proposed rule to improve the electronic prior authorization process for drugs. The rule expands requirements beyond non-drug items, aiming to enhance technical standards and transparency in drug pre-authorization processes.
The article highlights the limitations of generic, off-the-shelf AI systems that fail within real clinical environments (like Epic). It emphasizes that custom development is crucial for meeting compliance requirements and deep EHR integration.
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) will host its seventh annual 'CMS & HL7 FHIR Connectathon' virtually from July 14–16, 2026. This event gathers industry leaders and technical implementers to test and improve FHIR-based solutions.
Infor Cloverleaf offers FHIR services to solve challenges posed by legacy systems, providing a modern foundation for healthcare data exchange. This enables improvements in various workflows, such as automating prior authorization processes and facilitating data utilization for population health management.
The original FHIR $merge was limited to the Patient resource and relied on the server to determine merge logic. This article proposes an extension that accepts a client-supplied transaction Bundle as a plan parameter, enabling atomic and auditable data merging across all resource types.
This article explains how to prevent 'hallucinations'—plausible but incorrect outputs—from Large Language Models (LLMs). It introduces a method using FHIR Terminology Services and the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to ground AI output in internationally standardized vocabularies, thereby enhancing the accuracy and reliability of clinical coding.
HeyDonto AI Technology announced the close of a seed funding round at a $200 million valuation, aiming to accelerate the deployment of 'Conduit,' a standards-based interoperability platform connecting dental systems to the broader healthcare ecosystem. The platform aims to bridge the structural gap of integrating dental data into the national health information infrastructure.
The Taiwan Ministry of Health and Welfare announced the selection of 50 excellent SMART on FHIR applications. The announcement also details that the first 'Taiwan 50 Excellent SMART Application Awards Ceremony and SMART SUMMIT International Forum' will be held on April 13th.
EHR integration enables information sharing across healthcare facilities, enhancing patient safety by supporting clinical decision-making. This eliminates the need for providers to manually search multiple systems, allowing for more comprehensive care provision.
Adopting HL7 FHIR addresses interoperability issues in modern healthcare IT, where data silos and legacy systems pose challenges. This enables real-time and accurate data exchange, contributing to efficient and high-quality patient care.
