washington — api healthcare corporation has abandoned its merger plans with kronos inc. after the department of justice expressed concerns that the acquisition would have reduced competition and increased prices in healthcare - specific workforce management technology. as a result of the contract termination, both kronos, which is owned by investment firm hellman & friedman capital partners vi l. p. , and api, which is owned by investment firm francisco partners ii l. p. , will continue to sell health - care specific workforce management solutions .
by purchasing api, kronos would have acquired its most significant competitor for healthcare time and attendance solutions, and led to the loss of a vigorous competitor that offered innovative staff scheduling capabilities in combination with its time and attendance products. the department said that according to industry sources, the transaction would have resulted in a single firm controlling approximately 70 percent of the time and attendance healthcare market .

but buried at the bottom of the pr announcing the forthcoming roll - out of the streams app in royal free hospitals in early 2017 is a major new facet to the collaboration: a plan to develop a data - sharing access infrastructure for the royal free, aka a fhir (fast healthcare interoperability resources) api .
mhealth, ehealth or wearable application developers can also use the truevault healthcare api to ensure that their handling of protected health information (phi) meets the hipaa security rule requirements. truevault helps application developers meet or exceed the technical and physical safeguard requirements so that they can focus on building incredible experiences for consumers instead of worrying about red tape .

api is the parent company of priceline pharmacy, soul pattinson chemist and pharmacist advice. our services include wholesale product delivery, retail services, marketing programs and business advisory services .
speaking to techcrunch today, deepmind co - founder mustafa suleyman describes the fhir api as “a central part of what we’re doing”. “the idea is that we basically create a standard interface that allows third - party developers to build their applications into a canonical api, ” he says. “what we’re trying to do is make it as easy as possible for different developers of different sizes, small and big, to build into a standardized file format… we wouldn’t have any role in determining who could build into that api or not. ”

at this point royal free patients can opt out of having their data made accessible under the forthcoming fhir api — which deepmind says it expects to launch early next year — although suleyman notes those decisions are made by the trust, as the data controller, and says the royal free could decide to remove the opt out in the future if the api ends up being considered a core system for them .
however, the api task force ultimately found these concerns to be largely unfounded based on the ability of well - manage apis to provide superior security compared to
ad - hoc interfaces or proprietary integration technology
already in use .
the services agreement contract between the royal free and deepmind further notes that the fhir api will be owned by deepmind, and licensed to the trust for non - commercial, internal use during the five - year term of the agreement .
the truevault api is free to use and develop on. developers are only charged once they activate their account, establishing a business associate agreement with truevault, which makes the application meet hipaa security rule requirements. learn more about truevault .
“in the same way that if you want the prettiness of gmail, you have to give google all your data to show you ads, the deal for the app (with all the governance) is that you have to have the data copying for the api. the legal justification for copying data on everyone in the hospital is “we’re building a shadow it infrastructure. ” the public justification is “look, pretty app! ” that’s not necessarily wrong, but why was the fhir api not mentioned yesterday? ”
the electricity drawn through the socket represents the information contained in a piece of software; the socket, the api enabling a request to be made and answered; the appliance, the other piece of software developed to use the requested information in a novel way .
salinas valley memorial healthcare system is one of the first clients to go live with the patient classification clinical information interface. an original beta tester of the technology, salinas valley memorial is an acute care facility licensed for nearly 270 beds with more than 1, 600 employees .
we have committed to building our infrastructure on open and interoperable standards, namely the fhir api (fast healthcare interoperability resources application programming interface) that many others across the sector have agreed will be a new standard in health tech. not only will this ensure the data we process is in a modern infrastructure, but it will help to develop common information processing standards that other technologists and clinicians can also use to build their apps and other software which will improve patient care (subject to those third parties seeking all the appropriate approvals) .
to better inform the use of apis in health it certification (e. g. , 2015 edition health it certification criteria) and provider incentive programs (e. g. stage 3 meaningful use), the health it policy and standards committee formed the api task force .
asked why deepmind did not reveal its plans to build a data access infrastructure sooner in regards to the streams project, suleyman says he has personally talked about the company’s “commitment to open standards and interoperability” — and points to a paragraph on its website when it launched in february which references an aim to “build technologies that work together. ” although it’s a pretty big leap from such broad - brush comments to the pid api being revealed as the keystone of the project now — with streams evolving into the showcase app for a future third - party healthcare services developer ecosystem .
despite proving the usefulness of fhir in sandbox testing, schleyer acknowledged that variation in fhir implementation, differences in data vocabularies used by fhir - enabled systems, and a lack of a standardization patient matching solution could end up hold the specifications and api back from reaching their full potential .
, which has been critical of the deepmind / royal free arrangement since details were made publicly available. “the contract is for google to build two things: 1. streams, 2. fhir api, and it is 2 that is the justification for all the data being copied into google .
chief among them are the apis used by the blue button toolkit. the restful api is one such example that supports the exchange of data in json (javascript object notation) and xml (extensible markup language) formats and leverages security standards oauth and saml to confirm that recipients are authorized to view transmitted data .
last month, hl7 ceo charles jaffe, md, phd, stated that
the marketplace will decide the utility of fhir
and he cited three programs exploring the utility and application of fhir in the healthcare industry — the argonaut project, partners in interoperability program, and another in the field of genomics for use in precision medicine .
more broadly, it claims there’s no difference in the structure of the information - sharing arrangement it has versus other third - party healthcare system providers to the nhs, such as cerner. although smith dismisses this argument, pointing out that cerner provides “the primary mission critical it system for the entire hospital” versus deepmind building just an app .

more detail is provided in an faq further down the page — where it becomes clear the streams aki app is really just the initial showcase for the underlying data access and streaming infrastructure deepmind is intending to create to facilitate / broker access to nhs patient data, via its api, with the aim of powering a third - party health app ecosystem .
the link between clinical and finance is more important than ever before. not only does the workforce account for the majority of operating costs, they are also the ones spending the most amount of time with patients. with cms reimbursements tied to quality and outcomes, forward thinking healthcare organizations are looking for innovative ways to manage the development and deployment of the workforce .
for instance, as part of the stage 3 meaningful use objective for patient access, cms includes the use of apis to enable patients with the ability to view, download, or transmit their health information and patient - specific resources
using any application of their choice that is configured to meet the technical specifications of the api in the provider' s cehrt .
