How do you map real life events to FHIR resources?
Most of us working with FHIR have had to do this at some point.
Here are 7 posts I wrote that tell a patient’s story and map that story to FHIR resources.
Click on the Discussion link at the bottom of each post to jump into the LinkedIn comments. In some cases I missed resources or over-simplified. The commenters on LinkedIn do a great job of highlighting these omissions! 😀
FHIR mapping is complicated, but also fun.

There’s a personal story in the above list. But I’m not saying which one.
