The consumer’s new digital front door
summary
CARIN publishes FHIR implementation guides including CARIN IG for Blue Button, real-time pharmacy benefit check, and a digital insurance card format, and reports a rapid uptake with about 84% of plans FHIR-compliant within two years. The real-time benefit flow returns coverage, formulary, out-of-pocket and cash prices and claims 50–75% potential drug cost savings when used in patient apps. A 20‑organization HHS proof‑of‑concept tests federated IL2 digital identity and an app registration guide and code‑of‑conduct catalog are already available.
