Simplifying Healthcare App Development: Darena Solutions Launches MeldRx
ST. LOUIS, (PRNewswire) SEPTEMBER 27, 2023
Darena Solutions, a leader in healthcare clinical, analytics, and regulatory solutions, today announced the launch of MeldRx™, a platform to simplify the development, testing, and deployment of apps based on the SMART specification.
The first-of-its-kind healthcare app development and deployment platform-as-a-service includes a suite of services to simplify data aggregation and access through HL7® Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR®) APIs. Using MeldRx, developers can quickly and easily create apps that work across multiple EHRs and encourage the flow of data across the healthcare continuum without constraints –providing unparalleled access to healthcare information.
Healthcare app developers face a growing array of challenges related to getting new solutions out the door. Building an app that integrates with a multitude of EHR systems across healthcare organizations requires significant development work and testing for each EHR. While standards like FHIR enable interoperability, not all EHR vendors implement them consistently. This can limit out-of-the-box connectivity for apps. To overcome these barriers, developers need a platform-based approach that reduces EHR complexity and provides shared services for development, testing, integration, and compliance.
MeldRx makes it easy to create apps using HL7® FHIR® interoperability standards. With MeldRx:
Developers can build their apps once and integrate and deploy across multiple EHRs.
Healthcare providers can create custom solutions that work with their existing EHR systems.
Healthcare payers can develop new data analytics tools with seamless data exchange from patients and providers.
EHR companies can expand their app network and bring new features to their customers using MeldRx's plug-and-play developer features.
“MeldRx puts the power of healthcare innovation in the hands of the people who confront its challenges daily. From the clinicians who identify system lapses to the patients facing them head-on, to researchers digging deeper, and the analysts unveiling intricate data stories, every visionary stakeholder can see their idea come to fruition.”
MeldRx allows apps to link to any external FHIR APIs in real time using SMART specifications. In addition to the SMART flows, MeldRx supports Clinical Decision Support (CDS) Hooks to enable seamless integration with existing clinical workflows. MeldRx also includes a data vault to allow aggregation and access of unstructured data and non-FHIR data, thus enabling a comprehensive longitudinal record.
The Drummond Group, a provider of interoperability and security testing, certification, assessment, and advisory services for the health and commerce IT industries, recently announced MeldRx as one of the two platforms it will use for its FHIR Client Certification Program. The program allows developers to create, test, and certify their apps against a reference MeldRx FHIR API.
“We are pleased to have the MeldRx platform serving as a reference server implementation in our new FHIR Client Certification Program. This new program required technology to support our vision of bringing interoperability testing and clarity to the FHIR ecosystem, and Darena Solutions delivered.”
“MeldRx fills a crucial gap for app developers, enabling them to confidently bring their innovations to market,”
”Through our collaboration with Drummond, healthcare app users can find peace of mind knowing that the apps they trust to access their healthcare data have been rigorously vetted and tested. We are allowing a seamless transition for developers to go from development and certification to market introduction of their app.”
MeldRx is now available for early access. To learn more about how MeldRx can help streamline the deployment of healthcare apps, get early access, or schedule a demo, visit meldrx.com. For a hands-on experience with MeldRx, visit Darena Solutions at HLTH23 (booth #5826).
