Case Based Blended Learning Ecosystem on FHIR

In 2016 I had built a basic version using WordPress for implementing UDHC/CBBLE (presented at AIIMS Delhi in Jan. 2017), and then created this mockup of an app. My involvement in UDHC project (CBBLE is a subset and key element in UDHC system) helped me explore EBM and parallelly HealthIT in-depth finding my way to learn more and connect with amazing HealthIT evangelists globally and currently I am even having some experience in volunteering for HealthIT & FHIR projects and thankful for the opportunities to DHIndia and HL7India.

3 years back I had plans to learn implementing FHIR for this project for making this an interoperable platform and then help to evolve the ecosystem of various UDHC networks (mainly in medical schools) as I have a great interest in the UDHC idea. The journey is still going on with various volunteers, peer learners and mentors including Dr. Rakesh Biswas who pioneered the UDHC concept. He provides the opportunity to many students including me to explore the idea and implementation while benefitting the patients too. 

It was inspiring to find FHIR community have started implementation for case-based learning in the webinar by HL7 International "Case-Based Learning (CBL) on FHIR December 16, 2020 | 4:00 - 5:00 PM EST" and I am hopeful that the ecosystem will evolve more helping medical students and professional to be able to deliver better to the patients.  https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32025640/


Long way to go.
