Hi Developers!

We are happy to present the bonuses page for the applications submitted to the InterSystems FHIR and Digital Health Interoperability Contest 2024!

Hi Community,

We're pleased to invite you to join the upcoming InterSystems IRIS 2020.1 Tech Talk: API-First Development on May 5 at 10:00 AM EDT!

In this week's InterSystems IRIS 2020.1 Tech Talk, we'll discuss API-first development and how InterSystems is embracing this industry trend with our API Manager, and specifically with our FHIR offerings. First, we'll talk about InterSystems API Manager. This tool controls your web-based API traffic in a single location. You can throttle throughput, configure payload sizes and whitelist/blacklist IPs, among many other features.

FHIR stands for Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources. Release 4 brings this HL7 standard to maturity, and the FHIR R4 support in InterSystems IRIS for HealthTM is big. You'll learn how to work with FHIR data in InterSystems IRIS, and see our developer portal in action, where you can access FHIR resources using the OpenAPI specification.

clinFHIR is a web application that has been developed pretty much over the same time as FHIR has. 

Originally developed to help clinicians visualize FHIR (hence the ‘clin’ in the name) it has become more widely used by the FHIR community for learning FHIR and assisting with design. It is maintained by David Hay - one of the FHIR Management Group co-chairs with support from InterSystems, which is much appreciated!

There are 4 modules that may be of interest to participants in the upcoming Interoperability contest.

• The Patient viewer for looking at an individual patients records
• Server Query which makes RESTful API calls against a FHIR server displaying the result in different formats
• Bundle Visualizer which will display the contents of a bundle
• Graph Builder which allows you to build graphs of interconnected resources.

I’ve created a longer post on google docs that goes into a little more details of these modules, with links to other resources such as my blog and the R4 Specification and R5 FHIR specification. I’ll be enhancing that over time - feel free to comment.

A note with regard to FHIR versions. The latest version is R5 (release 5), though many in the community still use R4. In most cases, if you're not sure then use R4. If you're not sure which version a FHIR Server supports, examine its CapabilityStatement which you can get from the server endpoint [host]/metadata

I should also point out that clinFHIR doesn’t currently use SSL. It is on the roadmap, but there are a few issues to work through. The consequence of this is that if you enter ‘clinfhir.com' into the browser, it may not find it. You sometimes have to specify http://clinfhir.com/ . 

If you need further assistance, I would alway recommend using the FHIR chat, and if your question / comment / suggestion is related to clinFHIR then there’s a specific stream there.

Hi Community!

We're pleased to invite you to the Online meetup with the winners of the InterSystems FHIR programming contest!

Date & Time: Friday, September 4, 2020 – 11:00 EDT

The new production component driver for Deltanji enables highly granular management of InterSystems Interoperability Productions with tight integration into the management portal. We presented it at the InterSystems UK&I summit this week and it received a great reception. 

It solves the current pain-point of Interoperability Productions being defined in a single monolithic class definition. Deltanji source control increases the granularity with which items can be managed. Instead of versioning a single class definition containing all the configuration items, this new component driver allows individual configuration items to be managed separately. Each configuration item has its own versioning and revision history and can be checked-out, checked-in, and deployed independently of any other items in the same Production.

Because each configuration item within a production class is managed by Deltanji as a first-class component in its own right, Deltanji provides all the source control, versioning, and workflow capabilities that it provides for any other component.

Watch the below clip to see it in action. 

We'll be talking about this new feature in more detail at our User Group Session on November 3rd at 3pm (GMT). Register your attendance on Eventbrite here - https://bit.ly/3yqzfvS

Interoperability Read Only access

In companies, most of the time, we have test, stage and production environments.

It is very common that we, the developers, do not have the right to modify or touch the production directly because all the modifications must be traced in a versioning tool and tested before a production release.

However, a read access to the production (especially to the traces) can allow us to better understand a possible bug.

That's why I propose this ZPM module that creates a new role in IRIS that allows access to the productions and this only in read-only with access to the visual traces.

⏯ Semantic Interoperability at Healthix: Using Managed Terminology within HealthShare @ Global Summit 2022

Hi, I am glad to announce another submission to OpenExchange and the current contest, the FHIR Pseudonymization Proxy. The FHIR Pseudonymization Proxy adds a transparent pseudonymization layer to any existing FHIR server, enabling clients to perform queries on the FHIR server – which may contain personal identifying information – and receive an on-the-fly pseudonymized version of the data.

The proxying mechanism is realized with the IRIS for Health platform through an interoperability production, BPLs and DTLs, and the FHIR interoperability adapter.
