FHIR architecture overview for non-programmers by René SpronkFurore_com
The document describes an overview presentation of FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) given to non-programmers and executives. It defines what FHIR stands for and its design philosophy of focusing on implementers and leveraging web technologies. FHIR provides resources, extensions, profiles and conformance to enable interoperability. It can be used in a variety of healthcare settings and implementations are already underway. FHIR aims to significantly impact healthcare IT by being easier and cheaper to implement than other standards.
The document discusses FHIR documents and their structure. It notes that FHIR documents are bundles that contain a Composition resource along with other resources like sections, lists, observations, etc. bound together. Documents can be used when persistence of data across multiple resources is needed or when authentication of the full content is required. The document describes how FHIR documents can be communicated by posting the bundle to various FHIR endpoints like the Mailbox, Document/Bundle, or as a transaction to create/update the individual resources. It also notes documents can be posted as a Binary resource or referenced through a DocumentReference resource.

Building an Integrated Healthcare Platform with FHIR®WSO2
Healthcare records are increasingly becoming digitized. As patients move around the healthcare ecosystem, their electronic health records must be available, discoverable, and understandable. Further, to support automated clinical decisions and other machine-based processing, the data must also be structured and standardized. This is becoming a matter of interest for institutes such as government agencies and regional bodies, and we are already seeing rules and regulations come into action. For example, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), which is a part of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) of the United States, has published the “Interoperability and Patient Access final rule (CMS-9115-F)”. This aims to put patients first by giving them access to their health information when they need it most and in a way they can best use it.
Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR®) is a next-generation standard framework created by HL7 combining the best features of previous HL7 standards. FHIR® leverages the latest web standards and focuses on ease of implementability.
The slides showcase the primary components of FHIR, discover the architectural principles behind its design, and understand implementation considerations.

26. What is Interoperability
Interoperability is ability of two or more systems or components to exchange
information and to use the information that has been exchanged (IEEE 1990)
- Most frequently used definition of Interoperability
14-May-2021
Presentation by Kumar Satyam
27. Types of Interoperability
• Technical Interoperability - Technology layer
• Semantic Interoperability - Data Layer
• Process & Clinical Interoperability - Human Layer
• The Institutional layer - culture, education, regulations ,incentives etc.
14-May-2021
Presentation by Kumar Satyam
28. What is a Standard
Document, established by consensus and approved by a recognized body, that
provides, for common and repeated use, rules, guidelines or characteristics for
activities or their results, aimed at the achievement of the optimum degree of
order in a given context.
• Recognized bodies : ISO, ANSI, HL7
• Examples : DICOM, SNOMED, FHIR, CDA, HL7 V2.3.1.

30. Standards and Interoperability
Combinatorial Explosion
2 nodes – 1 link
6 nodes – 15 links
100 nodes – 4950 links
Formula
Links = n(n-1)/2
n= number of nodes
The benefits of using standards increase exponentially with the number of different
systems that need to be linked.
14-May-2021
Presentation by Kumar Satyam
31. Benefits of Interoperability - Indicative
Stakeholders Benefits
Patient Care continuity, elimination of redundant testing, improved outcomes, longitudinal records, Wearables,
better privacy & security
Clinicians Faster and more accurate diagnosis, decision support tools, access to information as needed
Hospitals Administrative efficiency, eliminate paper & delays, disease registries , Clinical trials and research, avoid
vendor lock in
Insurance/payer Faster settlement, improved efficiency , fraud detection, Risk profiling
State Population health surveillance, Public health policy, strategic planning.
Vendors Standard interfaces, innovation in product, cost efficiency, level playing field exchange and repurpose health
data for innovative services

34. Fundamental Principles of FHIR
• FHIR Scope and Priorities
• FHIR prioritizes implementation
• FHIR provides a flexible framework for interoperability
• FHIR keeps complexity where it belongs
• FHIR supports but does not mandate tight specifications
• Open Development and Implementation Communities
• FHIR leverages open source development principles
• FHIR is free to use
• FHIR Technology and Dependencies
• FHIR supports multiple exchange paradigms/architectures
• FHIR leverages common web technologies
• FHIR is forward and backward compatible
• Tooling requirements are mainstream and minimal

Presentation by Kumar Satyam
35. The FHIR Manifesto
• Focus on Implementers.
• Target support for common scenarios.
• Leverage cross- industry web technologies.
• Require human readability as base level of interoperability.
• Make content freely available.
• Support multiple paradigms & architectures
Source : Principles of Health Interoperability_ SNOMED CT, HL7 and FHIR 3rd edition
14-May-2021
Presentation by Kumar Satyam
36. Implementer Focus
• Specification is written for one target audience: implementers (that’s not just programmers)
• Rationale, modeling approaches, etc. kept elsewhere
• Multiple reference implementations from day 1
• Publicly available test servers
• Starter APIs published with spec
• C#, Java, Pascal, Swift, more coming
• Connectathons to verify specification approaches
• Instances you can read and understand ☺
• Lots of examples (and they’re valid too)
using HL7.Fhir.Instance.Model;
using HL7.Fhir.Instance.Parsers;
using HL7.Fhir.Instance.Support;
XmlReader xr = XmlReader.Create(
new StreamRead
IFhirReader r = new XmlFhirReader
// JsonTextReader jr = new JsonTe
// new StreamRead
// IFhirReader r = new JsonFhirRe
ErrorList errors = new ErrorList(
LabReport rep = (LabReport)Resour
Assert.IsTrue(errors.Count() == 0
14-May-2021
Presentation by Kumar Satyam
37. Support “Common” Scenarios
• Inclusion of content in core specification is based on “80%” rule
• Only include data elements we are confident that most (~80%) of normal
implementations using that resource will make use of
• Other content in extensions
• Easy to say, governance challenge to achieve
• Resources are simple and easy to understand & use
14-May-2021
Presentation by Kumar Satyam
38. Won’t extensions break interoperability?
• The 80% + narrative helps provide “base” interoperability
• For “robust” interoperability
• Profile – constrains structure
• Conformance – constrains behavior
• Needed to claim “I’m FHIR conformant”
14-May-2021
Presentation by Kumar Satyam
39. Web technologies
• Instances shared using XML & JSON
• Web calls work the same way they do for Google & Twitter
• Rely on HTTPS, OAuth, etc. for security functions
• Benefits
• Cross-Industry standards
• Well supported by tools
• Understood by developers
14-May-2021
Presentation by Kumar Satyam
40. Human Readable
• Clinical Documents has both narrative and data
• The data / narrative dynamic exists throughout the process
• In FHIR, every resource can (should)
have a human-readable expression
• Can be direct rendering or human entered
14-May-2021
Presentation by Kumar Satyam
41. Freely available
• Unencumbered – free for use, no membership required
• http://hl7.org/fhir + other versions
• Licensed under CC0: True public domain
• Any use is allowed
• HL7 enforces the trademark protection
Business model:
• If you want to vote, you need to pay

42. Paradigms & Architecture
• FHIR supports 4 interoperability paradigms
• REST – Lightweight, leverages web stack
• Documents – Long-term persistence
• Messages – Request/response paradigm
• Services – other SOA-based interfaces
• Regardless of approach, content stays the same
• Can leverage same models, same profiles everywhere
• FHIR makes no assumptions about the architectural design of systems.
14-May-2021
Presentation by Kumar Satyam
43. RESTful Paradigm
➢“REpresentational State Transfer” protocol
➢Represent your data as “resources”
➢Make “Resource” URI addressable
➢Use HTTP methods to perform CRUD operations
➢FHIR extends the HTTP methods for additional base operations
➢Resources may be exchanged using different formatted representations
▪ XML, JSON, etc.
14-May-2021
Presentation by Kumar Satyam
44. Maturity levels
• Intended to indicate level of stability
• Draft 0
• FMM1 – Resource is “done”, no build warnings
• FMM2 – Tested at approved Connectathon
• FMM3 – Passes QA, has passed ballot
• FMM4* – Tested across scope, published, prototype implementation
• FMM5* – 5 distinct production implementations, multiple countries, 2
• Normative - the artifact is now considered stable
• Non-compatible changes at level 4 and 5 will face increased hurdles
