Health Community of Interest
Date Published: May 10, 2024
This paper was developed in support of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) All of Us Research Program and other Federal health research studies that are considering using Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR®) to acquire electronic health record (EHR) data and other data sources (e.g., health care claims data), as an additional method for collecting health data. This paper focuses on four different areas of FHIR generally related to Federal health research studies: (1) policy, (2) data model, (3) technology, and (4) next steps/pilot studies.
