Hi @Brian Kaney - any chance of streaming your meetup live ? I attend meetups on other technology stack run out of my states via web. It possible, then I will try to tune into it. Thanks
Brian Kaney (Mar 11 2019 at 23:53):
ANN: We have two great talks and a demo planned in April! The first talk is "FHIR at athena: from Product Strategy to Data Lakes" and the other talk is "Partners HealthCare – Health Innovation Platform". Then we plan to see a small experiment, "Fax to FHIR". -- sign up here: https://www.meetup.com/Boston-FHIR/events/259668053/

From the keynote by John Wilbanks, Sage Bionetworks:

"Choose OMOP or SMART on FHIR and don't choose anything else," he said. The openness of standards and of data itself is key, according to Wilbanks, a longtime advocate of open data.

Let me know what the schedule is for doing the Boston FHIR meetups. We will have our new space a Boston Children's Hospital at the Landmark Plaza building. So we will be in a great position to host.

Great, thanks Adam. @Brian Kaney

Thanks @Adam Culbertson -- we are hosting the next one at Optum on July 23 (we will post the Meetup event in the coming weeks). The next one after that location is not confirmed (it would be in September).
Adam Culbertson (May 13 2019 at 19:36):
Brian, would love to set-up a call and see where SMART can support the community. I think we could host something late June, or Aug.

Does Zulip have a way to subscribe specifically to this thread (or otherwise notice its infrequent messages) without it being buried in the Social deluge?
Lloyd McKenzie (May 17 2019 at 15:13):
No. Subscription is by stream, not thread. You can subscribe to a stream, mute it and hyperlink a thread and come check it out occasionally.
René Spronk (May 18 2019 at 06:44):
We need a FHIR Facade for the Zulip API, so we can fine tune our subscriptions ;-)
Brian Kaney (Jun 11 2019 at 16:32):
New Meetup just confirmed. Join us in late July for Boston FHIR @ Optum: SMART and Da Vinci: https://www.meetup.com/Boston-FHIR/events/261871976/
Brian Kaney (Jul 19 2019 at 17:22):
Wow... closing in on 100 people this coming Tuesday! Join us at Boston FHIR @ Optum: SMART and Da Vinci -- https://www.meetup.com/Boston-FHIR/events/261871976/
Brian Kaney (Jul 19 2019 at 17:30):
Also the rumor is we will have food from Flour!!! Thanks to Optum (https://flourbakery.com/)... that's another reason to go!
Dave deBronkart (Jul 23 2019 at 13:07):
Just confirmed I'm free, so I'll be there too.
Dave deBronkart (Jul 23 2019 at 14:39):
I'm arriving in the area around 5 pm - would be happy to connect with anyone at a nearby coffee shop before heading upstairs at 5:30.
Brian Kaney (Aug 21 2019 at 23:02):
We have a great host and date for our next meetup in September. We are looking for one more speaker (and speakers in general for future events). If you are in the Boston area and would like to give a talk (low stress, these are free events :) ), let me know!
Dave deBronkart (Aug 22 2019 at 13:53):
Date? (I'm outside Boston but I travel a lot)
Rien Wertheim (Aug 22 2019 at 14:49):
September 10th. https://www.meetup.com/Boston-FHIR/events/264200690/
Dave deBronkart (Aug 22 2019 at 18:05):
Okay, I'm in town that day. So, @Brian Kaney, count me as willing and available if you want.
In general, the Boston FHIR community can always figure I'm willing to speak, when it's a topic where I can be useful. (Example: I'm not useful re webhooks :-)) I'm most useful (as you know, @Rien Wertheim and @Grahame Grieve ) when I can work with someone who knows the audience and can help me carve out a subset of the expansive universe of possible speeches :-)
Brian Kaney (Aug 26 2019 at 13:46):
Join us on Sept 10 for the next Boston FHIR Meetup over at InterSystems. We will learn about API -based healthcare and FHIR analytics. https://www.meetup.com/Boston-FHIR/events/264200690/
Brian Kaney (Oct 21 2019 at 20:45):
Next Meetup in Boston is coming early Nov!
This one has e-patient-Dave @Dave deBronkart and @Dan Gottlieb -- https://www.meetup.com/Boston-FHIR/events/265565558/ -- it's being hosted over at the new SMART/Boston Children's space (thanks @Adam Culbertson ). Stop by and say hi!
Brian Kaney (Nov 06 2019 at 21:09):
Just added some pics from last night -- https://www.meetup.com/Boston-FHIR/photos/30505225/ -- thanks @Dave deBronkart and @Dan Gottlieb
Brian Kaney (Nov 06 2019 at 21:10):
And thanks @Adam Culbertson and Boston Children's CHIP for hosting!
Dave deBronkart (Nov 07 2019 at 04:44):
I gotta say, increasingly I love the FHIR community - so vastly different from other health IT communities I've worked with!
So often when I talk about patients in trouble and why they want data, I get a confused look. Never so, with any FHIR audience.
John Moehrke (Nov 07 2019 at 13:35):
It is not just FHIR community. It is the community of standards geeks in the area of Healthcare Interoperability. We are all here because we WANT to enable appropriate and accurate information flow. We have been doing this for 10-20-30 plus years.

I can imagine that, @John Moehrke, but it sure has not been visible AT ALL to the "patient sufferers" out here in the real world, nor at the too-common medical conferences that are largely "all about the Benjamins" in one way or another. (For non-Americans, that expression refers to Benjamin Franklin's picture on the $50 bill.) So my appreciation is deep.
A nearly revolting example is in this LinkedIn post by a Medtronic sales guy gushing about how much fun it was to go to the big #HLTH conference last week. "It has never been a more exciting time to be a change agent in healthcare," he gushes. Change agent, my a$$ ... I replied asking if his company was ever going to let the famous heart patient Hugo Campos have the data from his implanted Medtronic device, so he can self-manage.
No response.
John Moehrke (Nov 07 2019 at 15:45):
right, that is a sales guy... not a interop standards geek... We tend to not be allowed out in public
Lloyd McKenzie (Nov 07 2019 at 15:47):
And when we are, we tend to avoid marketing functions whenever we can...
John Moehrke (Nov 07 2019 at 15:49):
there is no question that FHIR has exposed us interop geeks far more than ANY other thing.. so I am not diminishing FHIR. I am just saying that the people you are talking about were just as patient empowering back before FHIR. There are many patient empowering people that have gone before us, their efforts are what we are building upon.
Brian Kaney (Mar 02 2020 at 18:18):
We have just announced another meetup in Boston for the end of March -- https://www.meetup.com/Boston-FHIR/events/269137062/
