FHIR North

I'd like to give a quick shoutout to the Canada section on chat.fhir.org (Zulip) .

It might be worth posting a quick description of what you're looking for there in case others are working on the same, and either way it would be awesome to see more CanCon in that stream.

This will be really appreciated. We would like BC profile(s) to be aligned with other provinces or have little differences.

Hi,

If you're interested in profiles that are simply made for Canadian implementations you can try searching the simplifier.net profile registry. Even if you don't find Canadian profiles you will definitely find ones being implemented in the US, in particular you may want to check out the Data Access Framework or Structured Data Capture initiatives and corresponding resources. If you specifically need Canadian ones let me know and I'll see if I can put you in touch with other colleagues I know are working on some.

If you need Canadian profiles that are "approved" via a pan-Canadian standards governance body we don't have any of those...yet

Thanks,

Gavin

Do we have Canadian FHIR profile(s) already, may I see one before we start re-inventing ours in BC?

Just a reminder that the FHIR North connectathon will be running in Hamilton at Mohawk College on Wed. April 27th, the day before Apps for Health. We still have some seats left if you're interested.

We're running 3 of the tracks from the Montreal connectathon:

• Patient - entry level stream
• Structured Data Capture - questionnaire stuff
• SMART on FHIR - CA - using SMART with Canadian profiles

If you want to do something else, there's an experimental track too. In addition to hacking, there will also be tutorials and networking opportunities.
