Everyone knows that FHIR is a key component for improving interoperability between healthcare stakeholders. But did you know that it also fuels the first step in data readiness—a key requirement to accelerate digital transformation.

Traditional CRMs lack healthcare-specific APIs, which don't have native data integration capabilities and need third-party tools and a system integrator for custom integrations.

The World Health Organization has labeled AMR, or antimicrobial resistance, as one of the three greatest threats to human health. Antimicrobial-resistant organisms have been responsible for an increasing percentage of infections originating in hospitals and have resulted in a widespread impact on patient outcomes. Despite the threat of AMR, inappropriate antibiotic use persists.
