From CDA to FHIR: Responding to COVID19
summary
A U.S. city health department aggregates lab reports and emergency department CCDs, converts them to FHIR using the open source FHIR Converter (influenced by the 2-to-FHIR work), and exposes results via a FHIR API for CDC reporting and analytics. Labs submit via a Power App that posts FHIR resources, EDs drop CCDs to SFTP CCD ingestion which are transformed to bundles and then stored as independent FHIR resources. The pipeline delivers near‑real‑time visibility and feeds Power BI dashboards; cases decline in the months after deployment though causation isn’t claimed.
