Interoperability via APIs Can Be Easy

Published: Aug. 17, 2020, 1 p.m.

For Health IT companies, it’s so tempting to just dive in and build the point-to-point data integration that you need to get the job done. If you do that too many times, however, you’ll suddenly realize you have a mess of spaghetti on your hands that will hamper future development.  The co-founders of Datica believe there is a better way – integration as a service – something that healthcare organizations and Health IT vendors could use right now as they rapidly build solutions to deal with COVID-19   

We sit down with Datica’s Co-Founders: Jeremy Pierotti, CEO and Dave Levin MD, CMO (former CMIO of Cleveland Clinic), to talk about integration and data interoperability.   

Watch this discussion to learn: 

• How the explosion of telehealth is driving the need for more/better integration 

• How important data integration was to Jeremy’s wife when they ended up in the ER 

• How integrating with workflow is almost as important as integrating systems 

• Why Levin gives major props to the FHIR group
