In case you haven’t noticed, I’ve been writing a lot recently about FHIR. It’s a topic near-and-dear to my heart because it’s a genuine attempt to improve the landscape of healthcare, specifically interoperable healthcare, through a common-sense solution. FHIR – along with the promotion of the HL7 organization – is helping make the paradigm of RESTful […]
