FHIR R5 support

[Jose Maria Olmo Millan]

Hello

After FHIR R5 is released, are there any plans and timelines to support  for FHIR R5 fhirstores in Google Cloud Healthcare API?

Regards

[Paul Church]

R5 is currently on the roadmap for Q4. We are keeping an eye on any issues that are found just in case there is a 5.0.1 technical correction (as has happened in some previous releases). The current plan is to support R4B at the same time.

Hi @Paul

thanks for the update. Any plans to release it as preview version before?

We are pretty much looking forward to it.

Best

Patrick

It will certainly be a preview to start. The timeline and sequencing are still being worked out - we have to figure out how much of the R5 API changes we want to implement (vs. just pushing the data model and then iterating later), and we want to be reasonably confident that no technical corrections are coming that could break resources in our service. So there could be earlier or later releases but nothing we can commit to at this point.

Hey all,

Just getting started with FHIR and the healthcare API. We were wondering is there an upgrade path from R4 to R5. How have Google (or others) handled new versions before?

[Paul Church]

The adoption of R4 in the Healthcare API has been much higher than previous versions. It is fair to say that R4 to R5 will be the first significant upgrade we will have to handle, as the STU3 to R4 transition was much earlier in our product lifecycle.

Mechanically, the Healthcare API supports (and will continue to support) all versions separately. The FHIR version is chosen when creating a store and does not change later. You can still create DSTU2 stores today, if that's the data you need to handle. So as a baseline, customers can always decide for themselves when and how to migrate by creating new stores.

There are various things we could do to make the upgrade easier - mapping pipelines, on-the-fly facades, etc. We are still evaluating what would best meet our customers' needs. There are some inter-version mappings developed by HL7 (https://build.fhir.org/ig/HL7/fhir-extensions/conversion-registry.html), but one-size-fits-all transformation is not a realistic goal so we'd have to allow for customization.

This is still a developing area for us, and for the FHIR community in general.

Is there any update on the topic?

Maybe a rough timeline when you expect to be ready?

[Paul Church]

Due to competing priorities, the expected timeline for R5 support has been pushed back to H2 2024.

Hi Paul,

thanks for providing the eta. Is there any chance to get access to a preview/beta beforehand?

[Paul Church]

We can keep you in mind if there is a private preview - I'd rather take it directly to public preview to start but that hasn't been decided yet.

Hi Paul, H2 just started and we are still looking forward to seeing R5 supported. Could you provide an ETA in meantime?

[Paul Church]

R5 support is still in the plan for H2. I don't have a more specific ETA at this time.
