Document Description

Mobile apps and devices provide their own APIs and methods for collecting device data that can be communicated to EHR, PHR and research endpoints. Much of this data can readily converted to FHIR resources. The purpose of this implementation guide is document the functional requirements that can be used to assess devices, applications, and FHIR profiles to ensure that the essential data needed for clinical, patient and research uses is present in communications between applications.

Project Need

Mobile health devices and apps provide their own APIs and methods for collecting device data that can be communicated to EHR, PHR and research endpoints. Much of this data can (and has been) readily converted to FHIR resources. However, some limits have been encountered which demonstrate that essential data needed to generate, interpret and use the FHIR resources is sometimes missing.
