FHIR ® R5 has been officially released at hl7.org/fhir. This is the fifth major version of FHIR, and the culmination of years of work by talented HL7 volunteers. As a very programmable specification, FHIR can generate a list of all the differences from R4. This is exciting as it means FHIR is closer to becoming very stable.

IHE IT-Infrastructure has agreed to start a new work item on the topic of Privacy Consent, using FHIR. This minimally would be a re-evaluation of the use-cases in BPPC for use with FHIR Consent, but likely will go beyond that scope simply because of modern needs, modern toolings, and ease at which the FHIR Consent can support them.
