Igniting Interoperability: An HL7 FHIR Accelerator Panel

Five years ago, HL7 launched the FHIR accelerator program to support emerging FHIR use cases and help communities create and adopt FHIR implementation guides. Since its inception, FHIR standards development has focused on meaningful implementation and adoption. As an exponential number of use cases has emerged, end users and implementers, from government agencies, health systems, and developers have adopted the robust capabilities of FHIR. Representatives from the HL7 FHIR Accelerator community will share their success stories for 2023 and their plans for 2024. The panel will include members of the Argonaut Project, CARIN Alliance, CodeX, the Da Vinci Project, FAST and Gravity. Charles Jaffe, MD, Ph.D., CEO of HL7 International, will moderate a program that welcomes audience participation.
