A very preliminary list from the #HL7WGM in Pittsburgh right now on which #FHIR resources have been proposed to move out of the core specification with the R6 version and where they may go.

🌏 Based on the #StateofFHIR survey, we now have a summary for each country that participated for where they stand with FHIR adoption: simplifier.net/jurisdictions Go checkout the countries that you're familiar with and let me know if the summary is helpful! #FHIR #Interoperability

Time for some updates from the #HL7WGM in Madrid this week! 🇪🇸 Let's start with the Connectathon over this weekend. My main focus was the #EHDS track with @hl7europe.bsky.social and comparing multiple profiles side-by-side for compatibility. I hacked together a little application to make a start.

My focus areas: #EHDS developments, aligning #FHIR profiles across 🇪🇺 EU Member States with @hl7europe.bsky.social

“AI isn’t the first step — data is.” Dr. Carina Vorisek stresses the need for FHIR, SNOMED and clean, structured data before AI can truly support healthcare. #Healthcare #AI #FHIR #SNOMED #digitalhealth #interoperability

📹 Just made a video breaking down the Forge vs FHIR Shorthand debate! 🔧 Whether you're team GUI or team code, choosing the right FHIR modeling tool matters. Check out my detailed analysis in the original article: www.linkedin.com/pulse/choosi... #FHIR #HealthIT #Interoperability #FSH

New Perspective: The EHR Association's push to remove foundational data access is misguided & harmful for health innovation. www.linkedin.com/pulse/ehr-as...

Grahame and Joost seem to be getting somewhere in translating #OpenEHR data model to #FHIR logical models: build.fhir.org/ig/FHIR/open... (GitHub here: github.com/FHIR/openehr...)

A nice opportunity to create an HL7 FHIR starter pack: go.bsky.app/3JcB4Td (I finally figured out how 😄) #HL7 #FHIR #🔥

Hey look, @hl7europe.bsky.social is here too now! And here's a clickable link 😉 info.hl7.org/may-2025-wgm #HL7 #FHIR

🔧 Let's talk FHIR modeling tools! You've basically got two fantastic options: Forge (for visual modeling) and FHIR Shorthand (for code-based editing). Both are great, just different approaches. Full article: www.linkedin.com/pulse/choosi... Summary in 🧵 #FHIR #HealthIT

See you at the #FHIR devdays! #FHIRDevDays

You're the first to know: the first draft of the #FHIRDevDays program has just been posted! https://www.devdays.com/program-2025 Look at those wonderful speakers! 🔥

Am I the only one who absolutely starts to hate #passkeys? Everytime it's a dance to figure out which one or more passkeys I used with service X. Is it my phone, Bitwarden, one of my yubikeys, my Mac or chrome profile? It's 'Log in with Google/Facebook/etc' all over again...

This looks very interesting! Anyone used Ballerina for FHIR data/API mapping?

Happy reading for my Dutch friends in healthcare data exchange! https://www.algemenebestuursdienst.nl/documenten/publicatie/2025/01/31/eindrapport-vernieuwing-besturing-gegevensuitwisseling-in-de-zorg More centralization? Or are we just creating the 15th standards org? 😅 #healthit #standards

There are 158 resources you can choose from in the (R5) #FHIR specification, like Patient, Organization, Observation, etc. That's a relatively constrained set, considering its wide usage. Only rarely a new one is added, but two weeks ago the FMG approved the exploration of two new resources! ✨

The #FHIRDevDays schedule in development! (Not sponsored by Heineken, just in the Freddy room of B. Amsterdam 😅) Four days and 200+ sessions to choose from 😬 And so many cool topics. #FHIR #Conference

An SQL-on-FHIR overview in 4 slides! There's people who think #FHIR is only for data exchange, but Nikolai is not in that camp 😄 📊 Define a ViewDefinition, point it to a FHIR server and extract a nice set of square tables. Nice playground here: https://sql-on-fhir.org/extra/playground.html

At #HospitalsOnFHIR session this afternoon, Filipe Mealha explains the national platform SPMS (as part of the Ministry of Health) builds for sharing electronic health data between healthcare providers in Portugal 🇵🇹 #EDHS helps, but national infrastructure and procedures are needed on top.
