This connectathon is being held to accelerate the development of key areas of the Share2Care programme, using new and emerging technologies and standards, such as CareConnect API’s, GP Connect and NHS login. We also want to showcase the combined use of FHIR and XDS as a true testament and display of the power of Open Standards.
Earlier this month, INTEROPen delivered an interoperability update to the Royal College of GPs, looking at the work and progress made by the INTEROPen community, including FHIR curation with the RCGP Health Informatics Group, over the last year. The result is this link-packed review, including considerations, challenges and next steps.
If you are building support for Care Connect, GP Connect, Open ID Connect, and SMART on FHIR into your software, then this FREE event is for you.
The International Healthcare Interoperability Conference (IHIC) 2018 will be held at the University of Portsmouth on 11-12 July.
A briefing on the recently released KLAS research report on NHS Interoperability
On 22 May 2018, Luke Readman, Co-Chair of INTEROPen, Lorraine Foley, CEO of The PRSB and Dr Ian Bullock, CEO of The Royal College of Physicians, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) agreeing to ‘work together to advance interoperability across the NHS and social care through engagement of clinicians and care professionals patient/carer representatives, vendors and informaticians’.
The PRSB, INTEROPen and the RCP have taken this decision to formally recognise the strengths of each party and to foster an open and transparent business relationship, based on trust and mutual respect. The parties will develop collaborative, compelling and value for money responses to work packages, the first of which is detailed in the MoU. It is proposed that the partnership will secure the delivery of an end-to-end model, ensuring that professional standards are embedded into digital solutions using interoperability open standards, such as INTEROPen CareConnect FHIR profiles, and adopted into everyday practice to improve the information-sharing that underpins safe and effective care. With over 140 vendor organisations as members, including techUK, INTEROPen recognises the role of vendors as a crucial partner in this end-to-end model for the delivery of interoperable systems.
This partnership will be underpinned by the following core principles (abridged from MoU):
