Suppose you have a csv file of data, and you want to load that into a FHIR server. There are a number of ways that you could do that – depending on the nature of the csv file and the capabilities of the FHIR server that you want to update.
Let’s work through a simple scenario.

So in a comment to the previous post on using Node-RED to create Tasks from Assessments, Michael suggested that I talk about some of the security considerations that you might have. There are a few ways you could make this more secure that I can think of.
(And there will be plenty of others I’m sure). Naturally all calls will use SSL.
Let’s look a bit further into the second option – checking for a valid access token, and simply rejecting the call if there is not one present.

So a colleague came to me with an interesting challenge – how can you use Node-RED to implement clinical workflow? That’s a rather broad topic, so let’s take a simple use case.
Suppose you have an assessment, and as part of that assessment you want to be able to create a number of actions. For example you might want to book an appointment, order a test, notify someone if a score is above a threshold or enrol them on a case management programme. Let’s look at how we might implement this in Node-RED and FHIR.

Just came across this resource from the firely folk. Michel (author of Forge) pointed me to it when i was asking slicing questions on the FHIR chat.
A great introduction to profiling in FHIR using the Forge tool for concrete examples and well worth a look …
