In this interview, two health care interoperability leaders make a strong case for the value of the FHIR Business Alliance. We hear about FHIR as a path toward interoperability from Duncan Weatherston, Chief Executive Officer at Smile Digital Health and FHIR Business Alliance Chairperson, and Mario Hyland, Senior Vice President and Founder of AEGIS.net, Inc. and FHIR Business Alliance Board Member and Membership Committee.The Fast Healthcare Interoperable Resources (FHIR) standard, adopted several years ago by HL7, solves data sharing problems through well-defined, vendor-independent APIs, which are the modern approach to interoperability. Although FHIR is fully established and supported by nonprofit organizations, its implementation has been hampered up to now by lack of a strong business focus. The FHIR Business Alliance is bringing companies together to address that.Learn more about FHIR Business Alliance: https://www.fhirball.org/Health IT Community: https://www.healthcareittoday.com/
