FHIR for hospital operations is becoming much more than an interoperability standard.
In this webinar, InterSystems explores how healthcare organizations can use FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) as a foundation for operational management, analytics, and innovation.
Designed for data engineers, IT managers, and healthcare professionals, the session explains how FHIR works through REST APIs and standardized resources, and demonstrates three common architectural approaches:
- FHIR façade on existing systems
- Centralized FHIR repository
- Hybrid FHIR architecture
The webinar also highlights an important reality: while FHIR is essential for interoperability, advanced reporting, analytics, and AI use cases require complementary technologies such as SQL-based analytical models and vector data support.
Finally, discover a practical roadmap toward a FHIR-first hospital, from initial read-only use cases to full read-write integrations that accelerate innovation and give healthcare IT teams greater control over their data ecosystem.
