Data from laboratory systems deliver the basis for diagnostic decisions, help patients manage chronic conditions, and make our healthcare systems more effective and efficient, if it can be delivered where and when it is needed. That’s why interoperability is needed.

In our “Labs-on-FHIR” webinar series, we are looking in November at the experience in Germany on their journey to implement FHIR in laboratory systems, navigating legacy systems and stakeholder engagement, and working in a complex political environment.

The webinar took place on Tuesday, 12 November 2024, online, free and open to the public.

Featured speaker is Prof. Sylvia Thun from Charité University Hospital Berlin’s Core Unit eHealth and Interoperability; Sylvia is also chair of HL7 Germany.

There was a panel of experts, and plenty of time for audience Q&A.
