This allows GPs to generate and sign requests digitally within their existing workflow, eliminating manual, paper-based processes, thereby improving clinical efficiency and reducing errors.
This article provides a guide on selecting an HL7 integration engine—a mission-critical component of healthcare data infrastructure. It analyzes major options like Mirth Connect, Rhapsody, and Cloverleaf, detailing the current market complexity following licensing changes in 2025. The piece outlines key characteristics and decision criteria for each engine (including Mirth and BridgeLink).
Firely Server implements diverse features based on the FHIR Specification. It provides an environment supporting wide-ranging healthcare information exchange, including API access, document handling, terminology services, and bulk data export.
Intermountain Healthcare has published the 'HSPC Service Delivery Location Condition' value set, based on FHIR v1.9.0. This value set contains a list of codes describing how data was generated.
This study aimed to establish methodologies for effective healthcare data utilization, addressing technical and systemic challenges associated with FHIR adoption. By referencing USCDI, the research proposed multi-faceted approaches, including resolving discrepancies between diagnostic and insurance diagnoses, and integrating standards (Standard) with AI.
The US federal government is mandating the use of FHIR through multiple regulations (such as the Cures Act) starting in 2026. These mandates require patient access APIs and data exchange, necessitating large-scale system overhauls and compliance efforts from healthcare organizations and IT vendors.
Multiple regulations regarding Medicare Advantage (MA) and healthcare data exchange have been announced in the US. Specifically, the implementation of four critical FHIR APIs is required by 2027, indicating progress in data standardization and security enhancement.
EthAum Venture Partners held its latest 'Healthcare Innovation Days,' evaluating nine startups tackling global health challenges. These companies faced rigorous scrutiny from 13 major decision-makers, including medtech giants and national government bodies, proving their technological capability and market viability.
CENS（チリ）は、HL7 FHIRなどの標準を活用し、ヘルスケア情報共有を促進。これにより、患者ケアの質向上や医療ミスの削減に貢献している。今後は、セマンティックな相互運用性の確保が重要な課題とされる。
In the US, institutions like CMS and ONC are building interoperability using a dual approach: establishing national trust (TEFCA) alongside an API-centric exchange structure (FHIR). This allows patients single sign-on access to all data and integrates AI for clinical efficiency.
Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems are foundational to modern healthcare but face challenges like poor interoperability, data security risks, and poor usability due to complex environments and evolving standards. The article identifies these key issues and proposes solutions such as improving API design and adopting user-centered design approaches.
TEHIK has released an implementation guide for 'Electronic Health Declarations' based on the FHIR standard, version 1.0.0. This guide provides detailed mapping information between specific extensions and resources, aiming to enhance data exchange structure and interoperability.
CMS published an API architecture for the ACCESS Model, which includes four FHIR operations ($check-eligibility, $align, $report-data, $unalign) to track care episode lifecycles. The author argues that while the technical design is sound, the true challenge lies not in the APIs themselves but in establishing necessary partnership structures.
Healthcare institutions can eliminate data silos and improve clinical visibility by connecting medical devices with EHRs and analytics platforms. This integration, utilizing standards like HL7 and FHIR, prevents manual entry errors and forms the foundation for AI-driven predictive healthcare systems.
医療情報学の専門家は、FHIRなどの用語集に含まれる「その他（other）」や「不明（unknown）」といった残余カテゴリの使用に警鐘を鳴らしている。これらのコードは定義が曖昧で、用語集の更新に伴い意味が変化しやすく、過去のデータを静かに破損させるため、使用すべきではないと主張する。
Led by the IDB and PAHO, and supported by Japan, the Pan-American Digital Health Route (PH4H) is an initiative aiming to build interoperable infrastructure for secure clinical data sharing across Latin American and Caribbean countries.
Firely has published a list of endpoints for its servers, which conform to specific standards. This information is crucial for developers and system administrators utilizing APIs for patient and population services.
SMART on FHIR is crucial for securely integrating healthcare applications with EHR systems, but its implementation is complex. This article explains how using Descope simplifies the process by handling user authentication and consent management, allowing developers to focus on building FHIR apps.
オーストリアのHL7が、FHIR Messagingのリソースプロファイル「ATMessagingCommunicationRequest」に関する具体的な使用例を公開した。これは、診察文書（consultation document）の通信リクエストを扱うための構造化データであり、医療情報交換におけるメッセージングフローの実装指針を提供するものである。
SMART on FHIR is an open standard framework embedded within Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems, enabling third-party applications to access patient data securely and in a standardized way. This approach moves beyond complex, vendor-specific integrations, accelerating development and deployment across healthcare IT.
