Learning Objectives• Analyze a FHIR enabled ecosystem

• Demonstrate the ability for health information sharing with a FHIR ecosystem

• Describe a secure FHIR ecosystem of information and services

4

Agenda• The problem

• What is HL7® FHIR®?

• What is an ecosystem?

• FHIR components

• Apply to Use Case

• Final thoughts

5

The clinical problem• Data and services are in many places

• Data becoming more complex – and more of it

• Clinical understanding improving

• Patients/Consumers expect more

• Single individuals or systems can’t know it all

• How to spread the load/simplify?

6

Example Use Case: Thomas

• Elderly man

• Smoker, diabetic

• Chronic Lung Disease

• No family support

• Living on his own

• Hospitalized for pneumonia

7

What is FHIR?

8

Why FHIR• HL7 defines Interoperability Standards

• In 2011, the Board of HL7 noted:

– Interoperability requirements are increasing

– Need for real time access (API) – Mobile

– Vast increase in the amount, type and source of data e.g. Devices, Genomics

– Analytics, population health

– Implementer expectations

9

Benefits of FHIR• Improved access to information - Clinician and Consumer

– Currently locked in silos of information

• Ability for Clinician to get involved

• Improved information quality

• Easier access to complex services

• Reduce duplication of services

– Reduced cost

• Ability to Innovate – as seen in finance & travel

– New models of Care

• Support Analytics & Decision Support

10

Key parts of FHIR

• Resources

• Exchange definitions

– E.g. API

• Storage

• Community

– Assistance

– Tooling, Reference Implementations & libraries

Profiling: Defining the content

• Adapting base resources to specific Use Cases

– ’80% rule’

• Commonly

– Constrain base resource

– Add extensions

– Change ValueSets

• Machine readable ‘Conformance’ resources

• US Core, Argonaut

A digital ecosystem

And how FHIR enables it

18

A digital ecosystem is a distributed, adaptive, open

socio-technical system with properties of self-

organization, scalability and sustainability inspired

from natural ecosystems.

Finding stuff• Locator services

– Eg Documents (IHE XDS equivalent)

– Endpoint resource

• Registries

– Patient

– Provider

• Capability Statement

22

Clinical Data Repositories (CDR)• Exposed by FHIR API

– Any paradigm

– Any storage architecture

• ‘Transactional’ data

• Reconciled Lists

• Careplans

23

Terminology• What is Terminology

• The value it brings

• FHIR Support

Analytics

• Population reporting

• Quality Measures

• FHIR Support

– Specific resources (Measure, MeasureReport)

– Data collection

– Data representation (different formats)

– Bulk Data Export

28

Security and Privacy• Not a security standard

• ‘Physical’ security

• Privacy tag

• SMART

– OAuth2 profile

• Supporting FHIR resources

• Consent

37

Final thoughts• FHIR has achieved remarkable success so far

• An ecosystem way of thinking:

– Improves health data sharing

– Provides flexibility and choice

– Enables Innovation

• FHIR and related standards (SMART, CDS Hooks) underpin this.

• But: It is complicated!
