What is SMART on FHIR
It
is
a
technology
platform
consisting
of
open
standards
that
allows
Clinical
Systems
(eg:
EMR)
to
integrate
and
run
external
applications
that
enhance
the
realization
and
visualization
of
the
in-house
data
in
a
secure
and
unified
fashion;
thus
enabling
patients,
doctors
and
healthcare
providers
to
improve
clinical
care
and
overall
public
health.
Leveraging
SMART,
allows
Clinical
Systems
and
application
vendors
to
be
compatible
and
re-usable
by
reducing
the
cost
and
complexity
of
the
integration
between
the
app
and
the
Clinical
System.
Clinical
Systems
can
therefore
add
new
capabilities
and
functionalities
without
having
the
to
adhere
to
rigorous
change
request
process.
