Here's what it looked like inside the September 2016 FHIR Connectathon in Baltimore...

SNOMED CT Expo 2016 offers an opportunity to network with government officials, health IT professionals, practitioners, researchers, vendors from around the world and showcase the latest health IT achievements. A program of lectures and educational sessions will enable the participants to learn about the language of health IT and its recent developments.

Apelon will be presenting DTS on FHIR at the HL7 FHIR Applications Roundtable held at Harvard Medical School in Boston July 27-28, 2016. 

Apelon's John Carter, VP Professional Services, will be attending the MedDRA Users Group in Philadelphia, PA on June 30, 2016. He looks forward to learning about the latest changes to MedDRA, which is used for a wide variety of pharmaceutical-related reporting and analytics, and networking with other MedDRA users.

The Apelon team will be attending the HL7 May 2016 Working Group Meeting in Montreal. We will be participating in the FHIR Connectathon May 7 and 8, and then attending sessions on vocabulary, information modeling, clinical quality measurement, and of course FHIR. We look forward to seeing you there.

HIMSS 2016 is upon us, February 29 to March 4, in fabulous Las Vegas! We hope you'll stop by the Apelon booth (#2265) and say hello. We'll be showing off the new DTS version 4.4, which features a completely integrated HL7(r) FHIR(r) toolkit, enhanced value set tools for quality measure and clinical decision support developers, the new Content Download Portal app, and performance enhancements throughout the application. If you haven't seen DTS in a while, you'll be amazed at the latest features.

In this post, I'll review the history behind value sets' turn in the health information technology spotlight and describe the NLM's VSAC, a great and growing resource for caregivers who use controlled vocabularies in applications and the developers and terminologists working behind the scenes.
