FHIR Training

Digital Square's FHIR-focused webinar series provides guidance to help digital health developers, innovators, digital public goods and global goods developers, and implementers better understand how to use FHIR to address specific use cases, such as technical guidance for COVID-19 vaccination certificates. This work also increases the maturity of FHIR through the use and feedback to HL7 through their collaborative process.

Digital Square hosts monthly webinars to enhance digital health's capacity. The FHIR training material on this site is designed for digital health leaders with some or limited prior experience and knowledge of FHIR. All sessions are recorded and shared here.

FHIR Foundational Series

These sessions provide a comprehensive review of the fundamentals of FHIR, how it works, and supports interoperability in healthcare. These sessions are helpful for beginners who want to become familiar with FHIR. Look out for French and Spanish webinars coming soon.

FHIR 101 Refresher

This kick-off webinar reviews the basics of FHIR, including the overall approach, information models, and the relationship between FHIR and other standards. It also provides key pointers for participants to seek further information and engage with the rest of the FHIR community.

FHIR Profiling & Documentation

This webinar explores the basics for creating and documenting a FHIR specification for a project, a country, or an individual application. Additionally, the components of a FHIR specification and how specifications can be documented to accelerate delivery through validation, testing, and automation. Learn how FHIR specifications can be extended and constrained to support specific needs. Additionally, learn some of the basic FHIR features around localization and multi-language, which become more critical when implementing FHIR profiles.

FHIR and Terminology

This session introduces FHIR® support for terminologies: Standard (global) terminologies like SNOMED CT, LOINC, or local terminologies (for example, national codes) vs. project-specific terminologies. Learn about FHIR resources for terminologies, how they are used in the other FHIR resources, how to define new terminology resources, and how to localize the value sets.

FHIR Implementation Guide

This is a practical workshop-like session to create a FHIR specification publication. Using open-source tools, here is a step-by-step guide to creating a publication of an Implementation Guide in the most fundamental aspects: Setting up a (shared) repository, adding FHIR® conformance resources (e.g., profiles, extensions, value sets), importing dependencies from other specifications, adding narrative text and diagrams, and using a shorthand language to accelerate the work. The goal is to help you create your first FHIR Implementation Guide!

FHIR Webinars Series

These next-level webinars deep dive into the world of FHIR and set up conversations for the more complex aspects of FHIR. These webinars cover various implementation aspects and showcase some exciting work that the Digital Square global goods innovators have already done. These sessions are helpful to those with prior experience in implementing FHIR.

FHIR Search Framework

This session explains the core search mechanisms and explores their application in practice, from basic to advanced searching - text searching, composite search criteria, chained search, and much more. Learn how to document and enhance your search specifications beyond the FHIR core search possibilities.

Case Reporting using FHIR in questionnaires

This webinar explores the common needs for a case reporting system. Using an example specification, we explain how to implement the entire stack of case reporting using FHIR specifications and tools. Gain insights into how available case reporting specifications can be adapted to your specific case or region.

FHIR Exchange: REST, Documents, and Messaging

This session examines and compares the main data exchange paradigms and introduces ways of implementing FHIR resources using RESTful architecture, Document-based architecture (including IHE's mobile health document sharing), and Messaging architecture.

Extracting and Managing Analytics using FHIR

Learn how FHIR mechanisms work with data analytics in this session, from extraction and segmentation to visualization.

Introduction to Android FHIR Software Development Kit

Learn about Android FHIR SDK, a mobile-first healthcare application using FHIR resources on Android. We will delve into FHIR Engine Library and the Structured Data Capture Library and then use this information to build a real-world application using an example specification and the SDK's Structured Data Capture Library.

Layering and Reusing FHIR Implementation Guides

This session explores how FHIR Implementation Guides can use the inheritance and packaging mechanisms of FHIR. Inheritance enables the acquisition of data members and properties from one class to another. We examine how existing Implementation Guides can be adapted and reused for different types of data members and combined for more complex data collection. Learn from practical examples showcasing the inheritance of Implementation Guides and explore its impact on FHIR specification.

Building on FHIR, OpenHIM COVID-19 Data Exchange

Digital Square hosts a panel discussion with Jembi Health Systems NPC to discuss their approach and experience working with HL7 FHIR on a COVID-19 data exchange project. We discuss their approach in working with FHIR implementation guides, the FHIR profiling process, the use of FHIR Structured Data Capture within the existing OpenHIM platform, the challenges, and lessons learned. In addition, we discuss the types of skills the team needed to develop and how they used generic tools to fill gaps in the FHIR approach.

FHIR-side Chats

These chats, facilitated by FHIR experts, are an informal, monthly user group conversation for the digital health community to get together and share their experiences with FHIR. These sessions are audience-led conversations on anything FHIR, from user experience stories, challenges, and solutions to building FHIR together.
