Altarum’s Craig Newman, Sujata Mallik, and Forrest White will participate in the 36th HL7 Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) Connectathon on May 18-19, 2024. The Connectathon features hands-on FHIR development and testing, and provides participants with an opportunity to help evolve FHIR specifications and to learn by working directly with other FHIR developers and senior members of the FHIR standards development team. During the Connectathon, implementers and developers come together to hold technical discussions that advance FHIR specifications, develop FHIR-based solutions, and exchange data with other FHIR interfaces. 

Altarum’s Craig Newman, Sujata Mallik, and Forrest White will be Track Leads at this year’s Connectathon. Craig will co-lead the Bulk Match Track, while Forrest and Sujata will lead the Helios Query and Response Track. These tracks are working groups that test and improve FHIR specifications, with Track Leads facilitating and setting specific goals for the track to achieve.

Altarum has been helping public health programs integrate data for nearly 20 years. We have hands-on experience developing FHIR solutions and working closely with interoperability standards organizations.
