How to comply with ONC HL7® FHIR® API criteria without the overhead

By December 31, 2022, all certified EHRs need to provide a read-only HL7® FHIR® API to meet the requirements for patient and population services criterion §170.315(g)(10) - 2015 Edition Cures Update and get certified by ONC-Authorized Testing Labs.

This webinar is for CTOs, solution architects, and developers of EHR vendors to deep dive into the technical aspects of the ONC's FHIR API Criteria and understand how to get an EHR ready for the ONC API certification deadline of December 31, 2022. ONC certification consultant Kyle Meadors overviews ONC §170.315(g)(10) criteria, certification timelines, information blocking requirements, and EHR needs, as well as answers questions.

The CEO of Health Samurai Pavel Smirnov gives an overview of the pluggable Aidbox API Module and how it can be used with an EHR to comply with the 21st Century Cures Act Final Rule without overheads or needing to expend valuable developer resources.
