David Johnson (Jun 15 2018 at 12:27):"FHIR was developed with the intention of allowing different EHR systems to communicate with each other. However, the ‘last mile’ of healthcare, the connection from clinical systems to end consumers, so far has proven hard to crack. Apple Health Records is probably the biggest push so far for bridging it."
David Johnson (Jun 15 2018 at 12:28):"This means developers are going to have to be knowledgeable in processing FHIR data. FHIR is still a relatively new standard and by no means perfect, so developers will have to be prepared to meet new demands. For many developers of consumer apps, dealing with FHIR will be a new experience.
