What is a FHIR Connectathon?
A HL7 FHIR Connectathon is a collaborative event, focused on developing specifications for specific healthcare use cases and can include the development of:
- Resources
- Profiles
- Implementation Guides
Each use case is referred to as a Track, and each Track has a coordinator called a Track Lead.
Connectathons are essential in the FHIR Community, as they enable all healthcare organisations (government entities, software vendors, peak organisations and others), to come together in one location to test, discuss and validate if their product’s data-exchange capabilities are interoperable with other products either in use or in development in the healthcare market.
What happens at Connectathon stays at Connectathon!
Connectathons are a safe place for everyone to fail forward. Connectathon testing with peer organisations is good for developers and for the HL7 FHIR standard. Connectathons offer developers a better place to fail than at a customer site. Customers expect to use products, not participate in debugging. By allowing product vendors to practice interoperability in a Connectathon setting, vendors can come to resolution and inform the specification evolution so that true interoperability can be enabled.
For more information about this specific Connectathon please refer to the HL7 Australia Confluence Page.
