Fast Health Interoperable Resources
(FHIR^®) MASTERCLASS

Designed with a focus on simplicity and ease of implementation, the Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) standard is attracting a great deal of attention as the next "great thing" in healthcare interoperability and is an exciting new addition to the HL7 standards platform.

FHIR combines the best features of HL7 standards with the latest web technologies to make interoperable heathcare applications dramatically simpler, easier and faster to develop. For applications based on earlier HL7 standards, FHIR offers a cost-effective evolutionary path. FHIR solutions are built from a set of modular components called "Resources".

These resources can easily be assembled into working systems that solve real world clinical and administrative problems at a fraction of the price of existing alternatives. FHIR is suitable for use in a wide variety of contexts - mobile phone apps, cloud communications, EHR-based data sharing, server communication in large institutional healthcare providers and much more.

This Workshop will help participants understand where and how FHIR might fit into their healthcare interoperability environment and give them the tools they need to make judgements about when or if FHIR might be an appropriate solution for their healthcare IT needs.
