#FHIR server 2 - what is better than one FHIR server?

Okay - so now some basic support for getting and searching for some types of resources in my first FHIR server is up and running I thought it time to clean up my framework and show why one might do standards in the first place....

The first FHIR server up for a while  is wrapping Australian primary care system 'Best Practice'; it's major competitor in the clinical system market is 'Medical Director'  - all together these comprise approximately 85% of the clinician seats in use.  So it was time to start wrapping 'Medical Director' so it to could be accessed via the FHIR REST interfacing.

To begin with this second server only supports conformance, patient, condition and procedure resources - but this will be expanded in scope soon to match the first server.

There are some interesting things remaining to address:

  • history - very keen to support this interaction; want to play with feeds used to aggregate data
  • tools - looking at using FHIR based client tools to deliver functionality for multiple clinical systems

Check out some samples at http://www.oridashi.com.au/fhir now 2 servers!

#FHIR conformance and update

Server now with conformance metadata http://demo.oridashi.com.au:8190/metadata

This allows a FHIR server to present some indication of conformance in terms of:

  • FHIR resources supported
  • REST operations supported  e.g. read, vread, search, history (see: REST details)
  • FHIR version
  • Server version
  • Release dates
  • Publisher name
Currently working on building conformance statements directly from code generation.


Along the way some other samples and additions have popped up:

#FHIR Connectathon 3

I had a long night participating in FHIR Connectathon 3 the main objective for me was to get a couple features done and have some real interaction with FHIR client apps.

I participated remotely which is really not the best.... after all I miss all the action at dinner!  But thanks to skype I was reasonably connected.  The timezone was the killer 11pm-6am is a bit of a stretch for this old man.

Happily managed to get some interaction happening; really only patient resource but managed to get paging information added to ATOM feed and put in some support for JSON representation of the feed.

Since connectathon completed I have added MedicationPrescription and Procedure resources.

Still to do - search parameters for all of the resources (except Patient) and history operation.
