EBMonFHIR Project Information

Project Insight

• The Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) Resources for Evidence-Based Medicine (EBM) Knowledge Assets project (EBMonFHIR) was approved on May 16, 2018 as an HL7 project.
• FHIR SOLVES INTEROPERABILITY FOR PATIENT DATA
  • Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) is an HL7 standard
  • Developed by US government (ONC, CDC, AHRQ, FDA, NIH, CMS), other
  governments, healthcare systems, payers (UHC, Aetna, etc), EHRs (Cerner, Epic,
  Allscripts, etc.), industry – all agreeing how to do it as a standard
• EBMonFHIR is sponsored by the Clinical Decision Support Work Group and co-sponsored by the Clinical Quality Information Work Group and Biomedical Research and Regulation Work Group.
• The goal of EBMonFHIR is to provide interoperability (standards for data exchange) for those producing, analyzing, synthesizing, disseminating and implementing clinical research (evidence) and recommendations for clinical care (clinical practice guidelines).
• You can contact Brian Alper, the project lead, at balper@computablepublishing.com.
  
• There was an EBMonFHIR track at eight HL7 Connectathons: Baltimore September 2018, San Antonio January 2019, Montreal May 2019, Atlanta September 2019, Sydney February 2020, virtually May 2020, virtually January 2021, and virtually May 2021.
