Ways to Work With Me

I help teams make better FHIR decisions. I can work with you at different stages of your project, helping in different ways.

Here are some straightforward ways to work with me.

DELIVERY SUPPORT: Keep Things On Track

1. Developer Guidance Subscription: $7,500/month

I provide ongoing support for technical teams and help them build or refine their FHIR work. Weekly or bi-weekly calls, plus questions in between as and when required.

Typical duration: Ongoing monthly.

2. Strategic Advisory Partnership: From $15,000/month

I become part of your team for important decisions, available to your project and team leads when required. I help you review progress and upcoming FHIR decisions, identify problems before they become expensive to fix, plan architectural approaches and make sure the team is aligned on priorities and doesn’t miss anything important.

This is an ongoing partnership with a minimum 3 month commitment, where I become a key resource in your project.

Typical duration: 3-12 months (weekly or daily calls & on-demand access)

ARCHITECTURE & DECISIONS: Set the Project Direction

3. FHIR Vendor Selection: $9,500

I help you choose the right FHIR server for your specific needs. I provide clear comparisons between server providers as well as a written recommendation. A shortlist of three vendors can be provided if required for tenders and decision making. Access to the project’s product and technical leads as well as insight into future product direction is required.

Typical duration: 2-3 days.

4. FHIR Architecture Blueprint: From $12,500

I help you answer the “Build Vs Buy” question in the early stages of your FHIR project and provide you with recommended approaches (FHIR Native, Façade, “Hybrid” approach, etc.). I help you make the practical decisions around how your FHIR system should be put together. Mature projects that have gone wrong can also benefit from this option.

Typical duration: 3-4 days (longer for more complicated projects)

5. FHIR Hiring Advisory: From $7,500

If you’re hiring for a FHIR-related role, I help you hire the right person and avoid costly mistakes. I review candidates, draft key questions, join interviews if needed and give you a clear “hire” or “don’t hire” opinion.

Typical duration: Spread over 1-2 weeks.

CLARITY: Get the Basics Right

6. Expert Access (Hourly): $500/hour

If you need some short-term help with FHIR. Book a single slot or spread your hours out over a number of days. Tell me what you need and I’ll provide clear direction. (5 hour minimum)

Access: First call within 72 hours.

7. FHIR Risk Audit: From $8,500

An in-depth review to highlight problems with your project. I provide a list of risks, what they mean and how you might fix them. The more access you can provide the more useful and successful the audit. Examples of access are architectural diagrams, data models, test FHIR servers, meetings with architects and team leads, etc.

Typical duration: 2-4 days (longer for more complicated projects).

CUSTOM WORK: Tailored to Your Situation

8. Custom Engagement: Price varies

If what you need doesn’t fit neatly into an existing option, we’ll build something together that works for you. We start by talking through your goals and then agree on the best way forward.

Typical duration: Depends on scope.
