SMART on FHIR: Introduction
summary
Introduction to SMART on FHIR explains the concrete pieces: an OAuth-based SMART App Launch (standalone and EHR-launch flows), scope strings like patient/.read, and a public sandbox launcher plus sample apps and an app gallery that can demo apps against synthetic records. U.S. regulation requires certified EHRs to support these APIs by end of 2022 and a full EHI export story by end of 2023; about 14 certified products* already list API support. The SMART style skinning JSON exists but sees little real-world use.
