Description
The FHIR Bulk Data API is designed to create a uniform capability for population-level exports from clinical systems, into a file format often referred to as “Flat-FHIR.” Leveraging the SMART backend services authentication and authorization profile, the approach enables healthcare providers and organizations to define and access cohorts from electronic health records and payor claims data with “push button” simplicity--a substantial advance over the current state, where each site of care needs highly skilled extraction transform and load (ETL) efforts.
Learning Objective: This project was supported as a Leading Edge Acceleration Project (LEAP) under contract 90AX0022/01-00 from the Office of the National Coordinator of Health Information Technology. The purpose to is explore features and properties of differnet data format for FHIR Bulk Data API and data sharing.
