Hi everyone,

Here’s an outline for tomorrow’s webinar, which will be much less lecture-heavy. We’ll work together to document some of the needs, questions, ideas, and concerns regarding FHIR and OpenMRS. This outline will be updated both during and after the webinar to provide a coherent record of what we talked about.

Hope to see everyone there!

Introduction

Review of Webinar 1

The previous webinar can be found on the github page

We had a few issues with recording the video, and unfortunately have no video of the tutorial section. However, I finally spliced the audio recording and the video together and uploaded it to YouTube. If you’d like to watch it, check it out here:

Also, if you’d like to get some other perspectives on FHIR, check out these two videos from a tutorial Viet Nguyen gave at last year’s UW FHIR Workshop:

1. Intro to FHIR
2. ClinFHIR Tutorial

Quick Discussion: best approaches to tutorials and community education?
