Creating an FHIR API With Google Cloud ProviderData interoperability is one of the hardest problems in Healthcare IT. The most popular approach is to exchange HL7v2 messages between systems. These pipe-delimited messages are difficult to read by a human and often need additional customizations between implementations. The next major paradigm shift is towards FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources), a JSON-based …
Part 4: Creating an FHIR API – Wrapping Things Up
Welcome to the fourth and final installment of Creating an FHIR API with GCP. So far, we’ve covered a lot!
We discussed the differences between Google and Azure, landing on GCP as the best option for FHIR in Part 1. We began our implementation in Part 2, creating both the BigQuery resources and your FHIR repository resources. And finally, in Part 3, we tackled authentication methods and populating data in our FHIR repository.
This time, we’ll wrap everything up with a nice little bow. First, we’ll finish our implementation, and then, I’ll share the limitation I found – for the sake of transparency. Let’s dive in.
Part 3: Creating an FHIR API – Implementation Part B
This is Part 3 of our series on creating an FHIR API using Google Cloud’s offering. In the last installment, we began implementing an FHIR using GCP. We covered creating both the BigQuery resources and your FHIR repository resources. if you missed Part 1 and Part 2, be sure you go back to read those – they’re critical to understanding!
This time, we’re continuing the implementation. I’ll explain the authentication methods, and we’ll also tackle populating data in our FHIR repository.
Part 2: Creating an FHIR API – Implementation Part A
Welcome back to our series, Creating an FHIR API. This is Part 2 in our 4-part series on standing up an FHIR using GCP. In Part 1, we talked through two of the offerings out there, Google and Azure, and based on the pros and cons, I decided to use GCP FHIR Cloud Healthcare API.
In this part, we’ll start in on our implementation. A forewarning: we won’t be able to finish it during this installment, so stay tuned for parts 3 and 4! Let’s dive in.
