FHIR Clinical Connectathon

I was going to write a post on the Clinical Connectathon that we held in Chicago at the Working Group Meeting the week before last (in fact, had just written the draft) but I see that Graham has just published a post covering the event, and a number of other FHIR related comments from the WGM, so I’ll just refer you there!

For myself, I think that the comment about the evolving FHIR community – moving from simply developing a standard to using that standard to solve ‘business’ problems is probably the most exciting for me – which is what the Clinical Connectathon was all about.

I also want to point out that there are (at least) 4 more FHIR related events in the next couple of months:

Plenty of opportunities to experience the hype for yourself!
