Just published: SQL on FHIR โ€“ Tabular views of FHIR data using FHIRPath in npj Digital Medicine.

A standard approach for defining flat, reusable views over FHIR data โ€“ tested across real-world implementations.

๐Ÿ”—https://www.health-samurai.io/news/publication-of-sql-on-fhir-tabular-views-of-fhir-data-using-fhirpath-in-npj-digital-medicine

๐—ง๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ฃ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—ฏ๐—น๐—ฒ๐—บ: FHIR data comes as nested JSON/XML. Running analytics on it is painful. We all solve the same problem differently.

๐—ง๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ฆ๐—ผ๐—น๐˜‚๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป: A standard way to define tabular views over FHIR resources using FHIRPath. Write the view definition once, use it anywhere.

Patient demographics โ†’ flat table
Observations โ†’ flat table
Medications โ†’ flat table

๐—ช๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐—ด๐—ฒ๐˜
- Standardized view definitions using FHIRPath expressions
- Zero vendor lock-in - works across multiple tech stacks
- Simplified data transformation from nested FHIR to flat tables
- Real-world validation - tested this across independent implementations and even replicated a published clinical study

Whether you're building clinical decision support tools, running predictive analytics, or setting up real-time alerting systems, this specification eliminates the need to reinvent the wheel every time.

Two years of collaborative effort, multiple implementations, and real-world validation later - we're proud to contribute this to the FHIR and health data analytics communities.

MCP FHIR Server โ€“ Early Access
Connect AI tools like Claude & Cursor directly to Aidbox using standardized FHIR endpoints. AI + FHIR integration made seamless.

More Flexible Subscriptions
Use resolve() in AidboxSubscriptionTopics to filter subscriptions by linked resources โ€” trigger only on Encounters for specific patients, for example.

AidboxTrigger Automation
Run SQL automatically when FHIR resources change. Enforce business rules without extra middleware โ€” fully integrated and performant.

UI & Auth Enhancements
Breadcrumb navigation for effortless browsing
Set a default IdentityProvider to skip the login screen
SMART app authorization now shows requested scopes upfront

Aidbox Forms Upgrades

Template-based extraction for smooth QuestionnaireResponse โ†’ FHIR conversions
Enhanced FHIRPath Expression Editor with patient pre-fill (name, gender, DOB)
Option to hide form titles when embedding as web components

โš ๏ธ Important:
Zen/Entity-Attribute engines retire August 2025. July LTS release keeps legacy support for 2 years. Check your setup!

Tired of finding FHIRPath mistakes only after your integration goes live? FHIRPath is a flexible language for pulling data from FHIR resources, but that flexibility means errors - like trying to add a Date to a String- often slip through until runtime.

Our new article shows how static type analysis can help. By checking your FHIRPath expressions as you write them, you get:

- Instant feedback and error checking (no more surprises after deployment)
- Smart, context-aware autocompletion
- Cleaner, safer FHIR integrations

We break down how this works behind the scenes covering FHIRPath basics, how static analysis understands FHIR data, and how it powers better tools for developers and implementers

Ready to catch FHIRPath issues before they go live?

Check out "Unlocking FHIRPath Power: A Deep Dive into Static Type Analysis for Robust Tooling", and see how early feedback keeps your FHIR integrations clean: https://www.health-samurai.io/articles/unlocking-fhirpath-power-a-deep-dive-into-static-type-analysis-for-robust-tooling?utm_source=fb&utm_medium=fhirpath-post&utm_campaign=blog

With 10+ legacy systems with incomplete and sometimes inconsistent partial views of the patient records, manual sync process, BLMD needed a robust platform that could:
- Unify fragmented data
- Support niche and non-standard operations and workflows
- Ensure interoperability
- Support rapid scaling

The solution had to bridge the gap between FHIR standards and real-world clinical needs across their 50+ locations.

With Aidbox, BodyLogicMD:
- Consolidated all systems into one FHIR-native platform (1-week/clinic migration on average)
- Extended FHIR with 100+ customizations while maintaining compliance
- Achieved $10K/month infrastructure savings with 200ms API response times
- Implemented granular role-based access control across a multi-tenancy architecture
