1upHeatlh Recommends a Pragmatic Approach to Interoperability


Listen Later

One of the questions we get asked a lot by new digital health entrepreneurs here at Healthcare IT Today is whether building on top of FHIR will mean a solution will be interoperable. The answer, sadly, is no. Healthcare remains a mishmash of data formats.

Andrea Kowalski, Chief Product Officer at 1upHealth, shares this pragmatic view on the state of interoperability. While the promise of FHIR as a universal data standard is enticing, Kowalski recommends digital health companies accommodate multiple data formats (including FHIR) so that their solutions can be adopted by healthcare providers TODAY. Kowalski also shared how 1upHealth’s platform simplifies the complex work of interoperability, enabling startups and healthcare organizations to focus on innovation rather than the intricacies of data exchange.
