Mobile FHIR Integration
SMART on FHIR mobile apps for iOS and Android — patient health records, wearable data integration, EHR connectivity, and HIPAA-compliant mobile architecture.
Mobile FHIR Integration Services
From SMART on FHIR mobile apps to wearable data pipelines and multi-EHR aggregation — we build FHIR-native mobile healthcare experiences.
SMART on FHIR Mobile App Development
Build iOS and Android applications with SMART on FHIR authorization — EHR-launch from Epic MyChart, Cerner, and other patient portals, with secure FHIR R4 data access.
- ✓SMART standalone launch implementation for iOS and Android
- ✓OAuth 2.0 PKCE flow for mobile app security
- ✓EHR-launch from Epic MyChart and Cerner patient portals
- ✓FHIR R4 resource access (Patient, Observation, MedicationRequest, etc.)
- ✓Secure token storage using iOS Keychain and Android Keystore
- ✓Token refresh and silent re-authentication flows
Patient-Facing FHIR Health Apps
Consumer health applications that pull patient data from EHR FHIR APIs — health records, lab results, medications, immunizations, and care plans — displayed in a patient-friendly interface.
- ✓Patient data aggregation from multiple FHIR-enabled EHRs
- ✓Lab result display with trend visualization (Observation resources)
- ✓Medication list and refill request workflows
- ✓Immunization history from FHIR ImmunizationResource
- ✓Care plan and goal tracking (CarePlan, Goal resources)
- ✓Appointment scheduling and reminders via FHIR
Wearable & IoT Device FHIR Integration
Connect wearable devices and IoT health sensors to FHIR — transform Apple Health, Google Fit, Fitbit, Withings, and custom device data into FHIR Observation resources.
- ✓Apple HealthKit to FHIR Observation resource mapping
- ✓Google Health Connect to FHIR data pipeline
- ✓Fitbit, Garmin, Withings API to FHIR transformation
- ✓Continuous glucose monitor (CGM) FHIR data ingestion
- ✓Remote patient monitoring (RPM) FHIR data feeds
- ✓FHIR Observation submission to EHR patient records
HIPAA-Compliant Mobile Architecture
Design and implement a HIPAA-compliant mobile FHIR architecture — encrypted local storage, secure API communication, audit logging, and BAA-compatible cloud backend.
- ✓Encrypted local FHIR data storage (iOS Keychain, Android EncryptedSharedPrefs)
- ✓TLS 1.3 pinning for all FHIR API calls
- ✓PHI data minimization — only request necessary FHIR scopes
- ✓FHIR AuditEvent logging for all PHI access from mobile
- ✓Remote wipe capability for lost/stolen devices
- ✓BAA-compatible cloud backend for FHIR data persistence
FHIR Subscription Push Notifications
Real-time push notifications to mobile apps using FHIR Subscriptions — lab result arrival, appointment reminders, care team messages, and medication reminders.
- ✓FHIR Subscription channel for mobile push notification delivery
- ✓Integration with APNs (iOS) and FCM (Android) notification services
- ✓Lab result arrival push notifications via FHIR SubscriptionTopic
- ✓Appointment reminder and cancellation notifications
- ✓Care team message delivery to patient mobile apps
- ✓Medication adherence reminders from FHIR MedicationRequest
Multi-EHR FHIR Data Aggregation
Aggregate patient data from multiple EHR FHIR endpoints into a unified mobile experience — handling different FHIR profiles, resource normalization, and deduplication.
- ✓Concurrent FHIR API calls to multiple EHR endpoints
- ✓US Core profile normalization across different EHR implementations
- ✓Patient resource deduplication using MPI matching logic
- ✓Medication and problem list deduplication and reconciliation
- ✓Unified FHIR timeline across Epic, Cerner, and other EHRs
- ✓Offline-capable FHIR data caching with sync on reconnect
Frequently Asked Questions
Which mobile platforms do you develop FHIR apps for?
We develop native iOS (Swift) and Android (Kotlin) FHIR applications, as well as cross-platform apps using React Native and Flutter. The right choice depends on your target audience, budget, and the specific FHIR capabilities required.
Can our mobile app connect to any EHR's FHIR endpoint?
Any EHR that exposes a SMART on FHIR compliant endpoint can be integrated. This includes Epic, Cerner, athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, and many others. We handle the EHR-specific SMART registration, sandbox testing, and production access.
What FHIR data can a mobile app access from a patient's EHR?
With proper SMART patient-context scopes, a mobile app can access most clinical data: conditions, medications, lab results, immunizations, care plans, appointments, and allergies. The exact set depends on what each EHR exposes and which scopes you are granted.
How do you handle HIPAA compliance for mobile health apps?
We implement encrypted local storage, TLS-pinned API calls, PHI data minimization via SMART scope control, remote wipe capability, and FHIR audit logging. We also help you establish the right Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) with your cloud providers.
