Providing a unified healthcare analytics solution for the era of AI
This blog is part of a series that explores the recent announcement of the public preview of healthcare data solutions in Microsoft Fabric. Healthcare data solutions in Microsoft Fabric is a comprehensive, end-to-end analytics SaaS platform that allows you to ingest, store, and analyze healthcare data from a variety of sources, including electronic health records and picture archiving and communication systems. With this platform, you can unlock new insights and drive value from your healthcare data.
Building Apps on Healthcare Data Solutions for Power Platform
Healthcare Data Solutions for Power Platform is a cloud solution helping customers and partners build healthcare applications using low code/no code tools and a FHIR-aligned data model. The solution also provides template applications, a Dataverse Healthcare API, Virtual Health Data Tables, and a FHIRlink Power Platform connector. The solution is free for Power Platform customers and can be customized and extended using Dataverse tools and custom code.Empowering multi-modal analytics with the medical imaging capability in Microsoft Fabric
This blog is part of a series that explores the recent announcement of the public preview of healthcare data solutions in Microsoft Fabric. The DICOM® (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) data ingestion capability within the healthcare data solutions in Microsoft Fabric enables the storage, management, and analysis of imaging metadata from various modalities, including X-rays, CT scans, and MRIs, directly within Microsoft Fabric. It fosters collaboration, R&D and AI innovation for healthcare and life science use cases. Our customers and partners can now integrate DICOM® imaging datasets with clinical data stored in FHIR® (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) format. By making imaging pixels and metadata accessible alongside clinical history and laboratory data, it enables clinicians and researchers to interpret imaging findings in the appropriate clinical context. This leads to enhanced diagnostic accuracy, informative clinical decision-making, and ultimately, improved patient outcomes.FHIRlink Connector Support for EPIC® on FHIR®
The Health and Life Sciences Data Platform team recently released an update to the FHIRlink connector introducing support for EPIC® on FHIR® connectivity. This is our initial release of connectivity for EPIC® on FHIR® application registrations configured with an application audience of Patient or Clinicians/Administrative Users.FHIRlink Power Platform connector Public Preview Release
Microsoft FHIRlink creates a direct connection between healthcare apps built on Microsoft Azure services and FHIR’s servers, bypassing the need to duplicate data from Microsoft Dataverse. FHIRlink reduces the complexity and cost of building low code/no code applications on Power Platform and Azure because developers can build their apps directly against the FHIR services rather than having to duplicate data between systems. Connect Power Automate Flows, Power Platform Canvas Apps, and Azure Logic Apps to various FHIR services and perform create, retrieve, update and delete operations directly on FHIR resources.Virtual Health Data Tables Create Update and Delete Support
Health organizations are considering low-code development to improve productivity, gain faster time-to-market, experiment more easily, and overall, be more agile when responding to market changes. A key blocker has been the inability to pull health data from multiple sources and manage it in a secure and compliant way. Microsoft Cloud for Healthcare includes configurable solutions to exchange data between Dataverse and external systems using the FHIR standard. Microsoft's Virtual Health Data Tables provides the ability to connect directly to Azure Health Data Services FHIR service from within Dataverse. As part of the latest release, Virtual Health Data Tables has been updated to include support for the create, update, and delete FHIR operations.
