Aidbox is heavily based on FHIR. FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) is a modern open HL7 standard for exchanging healthcare information electronically.
FHIR describes about 100 models for medical data - Resources (such as Patient, Encounter, Observation etc) and REST API to access and manipulate such data (Create, Update, Search etc).
Aidbox is FHIR server as a service with some useful additions.
With Aidbox you can focus on your buissiness ideas validation, deligating technical details to us.
Aidbox provides you with all you need to start your next healthcare application:
With aidbox you can develop Mobile, Single Page as well as classic Web Applications.
If you have aidbox account, than you can create your own boxes. Box is an instance of FHIR server with separate database and url.
For example: you can create several boxes for development, one box for staging and another for production.
Boxes could be created from dashboard UI, using REST API or aidbox-cli util.
We take care maintains, scaling and updates for your boxes.
The primary box interface is REST API. Box is expected to be fully compliant to FHIR Specification.
Every box implements OAuth 2.0 Provider Service and all REST API calls is secured by OAuth. A
Aidbox supports all basic OAuth workflows:
Each box has their own users and security rules. You can use REST API, Box Admin UI or aidbox-cli to manage users in box. Also you can enable registration module to allow users register in box by themself.
Users could be assigned to groups and for each group you can create specific security rules.
Each box includes separate PostgreSQL database with installed fhirbase. Fhirbase is an open source PostgreSQL extension to store FHIR resources in PostgreSQL. You can get direct connection to it from Box Administration Interface.
Almost all healthcare apps require a lot of terminologies, dictionaries and lookups. Box implements FHIR Terminology Service Specification and shipped with most popular Naming Systems, such as:
Also you can create and use your own NamingSystems and ValueSets.
You can host One Page applications, written in HTML & JavaScript, directly on your box. This applications could be easyly developed on your local machine and deployed in box in a seconds with one command (See Getting Started).
You can interact with box from most popular platforms - Java, .NET, nodejs, Ruby, Python etc - using FHIR reference libraries.
