- Taikonerd 1y agoThere's actually been significant progress towards interop in the last 10 years. HIEs (Health Information Exchanges) such as CommonWell are steadily improving and covering more patients. Recently there's been a big push for TEFCA (Trusted Exchange Framework and Common Agreement) as the network-of-networks that federates all the different HIEs. It's been slow, but it's progressing. As usual, the problem isn't really technological -- it's getting all these different stakeholders, with different business models, etc, to agree on how it should work.
