FAH submitted comments to CMS regarding the draft proposal to transition from electronic clinical quality measures (eCQMs) to Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR)-based digital quality measures (dQMs). The organization stressed that this major redesign of hospital reporting infrastructure requires a careful and phased implementation.
Researchers emphasize that systematic data modeling is crucial for efficient, future-proof healthcare information sharing. They recommend that while HL7 FHIR excels in data exchange and interoperability, the appropriate standard must be chosen based on specific goals, such as analysis or organizational structure.
The French Agency for Digital Health (ANS) is holding two consultation sessions to establish FHIR implementation guides to ensure interoperability of medical devices. These focus on 'health measurements' and 'telemonitoring.'
ASCO recommended that the HHS adopt minimal Common Oncology Data Elements (mCODE) and Fast Healthcare FHIR standards.
This article explains the versioning process for FHIR Questionnaires, emphasizing its critical role in maintaining data integrity. Since Questionnaires are used to collect structured healthcare data, proper version control is essential for tracking changes and ensuring compatibility.
The core challenge in healthcare data is that clinical and administrative data remain separated across different systems, speaking different digital languages. Multiple mandates, such as CMS requiring FHIR APIs and the enforcement against information blocking, are driving integration. However, providers must guard against replacing two existing data silos with several new ones.
Small medical practices struggle to share information as patients move between multiple facilities. This article points out the problems of traditional HIEs and faxing, explaining how structured data exchange becomes possible using FHIR and SMART on FHIR.
This article explains how 'Practitioner' informationβincluding healthcare providers, clinicians, and care team membersβis structured and made available through an API based on the FHIR standard. It details how specific fields like names, identifiers (such as NPI), and qualifications enable the identification of practitioners and tracking of care teams.
Despite standards like FHIR, EHR interoperability often fails. The article argues that the failure is not due to missing standards but rather structural, economic, and operational challenges overlooked by vendors. These issues hinder data exchange and undermine care delivery.
