Helping Health App Developers

DeviceA phone with a green pattern on the back of it.

Many new application developers are familiar with RESTful APIs but may be unfamiliar with HL7 FHIR®, so diving into the technical documentation and testing with different data sources is typically the best way to bring their organization up to speed.

Resources & Training

As a public service, we want to provide the following resources to help new and emerging application developers learn more about what’s currently available in production.

The vast majority of these resources are free to use. All of them are helpful for new applications who want to provide person-specific clinical and claims information to consumers who request to aggregate their information to an application of their choice.

If you have built a consumer-facing application that is in production and connected to at least one HL7 FHIR API, you can attest to the CARIN Code of Conduct and list your application at MyHealthApplication.com for no charge. Please contact us for more information
