TEFCA facilitated FHIR Implementation Guide in the U.S.
summary
Describes a concrete U.S. rollout: the TEFCA FHIR roadmap claims staged adoption with a 2024 Common Agreement v2.0 and six‑month QHIN adoption window, the implementation guide uses UDAP for dynamic registration, and the RCE publishes a FHIR R4 directory built on the HAPI reference. Pilots in Mar and May 2023 had nine orgs and produced actionable lessons that changed the IG; 36 national networks already exchange ~350 million CDA documents per month, and a major directory update ships soon.
