Training provider eHealth & HL7 Education Partners has launched Australia's first courses in evaluating and implementing the FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) standard, which has been described as a 'paradigm shift' in connecting healthcare IT systems.
The first one-day course will be held in Brisbane next month and will be taught by health informatician Brett Esler, who has built his own independent middleware platform called Hiasobi that uses FHIR to allow easy integration of apps to general practice management systems such as MedicalDirector and Best Practice.
