Perhaps over the holiday break, as you enjoy time with family and friends, your mind wandered to the problems you confront day-to-day at work. You have big ideas and want to solve big problems, but the realities of healthcare data confound you constantly.
“I wish I could connect to my customer’s EHR.”
“I want a complete picture of my patient’s full medical history.”
“I am confounded by how to store or structure healthcare data.”
We come to you like Prometheus from Olympus, bringing the magic (FHIR) of the gods (HL7) down to earth. With FHIR, we offer a beacon of hope, a tool designed to simplify the complexities of healthcare data exchange.
Bombastic metaphors and hyperbole aside, we wanted to share this recording of our recent webinar that explains FHIR from the bottom up, tackling:
Data formats
The reason for data standards
Healthcare standards
APIs
The strengths and weaknesses of FHIR
FHIR by use case
FHIR will not solve all problems. It is a tool in the toolbox alongside many others. But by understanding it at a basic, foundational level, you’ll start to understand when it’s most common, powerful, and useful. We hope you enjoy.
