It sounds so efficient; you envision clinical data and PHI flowing between different facilities and systems. Then the telemedicine solution is deployed and you discover the vendor’s version of integration is limited to their video platform, allowing you to launch a video consult from your EHR. It’s great…. Don’t get us wrong.

Ten years ago the whole issue of personal health data exploded into the headlines. In one view, in the decade since then not much has changed, but in another view, an enormous amount of infrastructure has changed, and I think we’re on the verge of an eruption due to the success of the new FHIR data interface.

To simplify the question, is Epic going to give Oracle Cerner access to all their health records? I think we all know the answer to that and FHIR and all these other standards won’t get us there either. From a public health perspective, it begs the question of whether you need all the health records like Ellison envisions.
