Hello everyone. I'm starting the process of researching how I can possibly use FHIR for my SaaS that's running on Azure.

My product is not in the EHR space, rather case management, so there is some cross over with patients/clients, etc. My goal is to get my product into EMR app stores such as Epic, Cerner, and Athena. I would like to match up clients with patients and then ultimately pass in PDF notes to the EHR record as an attachment.

That's the goal in a nutshell but from here, i'm not sure what to research first. Has anyone done this before? I am looking for articles, direction and other information on what to do next.

Hope this makes sense.

Start with the EHR API documentation: https://fhir.cerner.com/, https://open.epic.com/Home/EpicOnFHIR, join their development programs and start developing a test app against their sandboxes.

(AthenaHealth at the moment being makes this super-difficult, so I'd suggest to start with Epic and Cerner, that are mostly self-service)
