The need to share healthcare information electronically is not new — but it has become essential in our COVID-19 reality. Whether it is across different information systems, devices, and applications or across organizational, regional, and national boundaries — the timely and seamless access of information is paramount to optimize the health of individuals and populations.
Tyler Haigh, DevOps Engineer at New South Wales Health Pathology (NSWHP), spoke at our MuleSoft CONNECT Digital event in APAC. He has more than four years of experience using Anypoint Platform. Recently, his projects focused on creating reusable DataWeave scripts for healthcare acceleration at NSWHP. In this blog, he shares how he uses DataWeave and MUnit testing to improve NSWHP healthcare messaging systems and patient experience.
COVID-19 has brought unprecedented challenges across all industries, but its impact on healthcare is unparalleled. Without access to testing centers or vaccines, patients and citizens are left with many unanswered questions.
These unanswered questions have a sizable impact on healthcare — a significant being the contact centers. Hospitals across the globe are hit with higher call volumes than ever before by patients who rightfully want to know if they should come into the hospital to be tested,
Veera Gopalakrishnan, a System Integration Engineer, and Swarnim Ranjitkar, a Sr. Software Engineer, at University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) both have more than five years of MuleSoft experience. Veera presented a UCSF and MuleSoft use case during our Developer Meetup at MuleSoft CONNECT Digital Americas. Here, Veera and Swarnim provide an in-depth explanation of how UCSF uses dynamic DataWeave scripts and the Salesforce platform for secure access to Electronic Health Record (EHR) data through APIs.

In this time of tremendous global change, an emphasis has been put on digital businesses and the need for transformation. As social distancing and shelter-in-place orders have become the norm, it’s clear that we are experiencing a paradigm shift. For companies and healthcare providers across the world, this change further highlights the need to go digital. As the world emerges from restrictive access to healthcare, the need to provide timely access to care has never been more important.
The healthcare sector has always been at the cutting-edge of technology innovation, as new advances continue to offer hope for improvements in clinical services and patient outcomes. However, more recently, healthcare organizations (HCOs) around the world have come to realize that there’s just as much to gain from tapping into the power of cloud and app-based services, Internet of Things (IoT) and wearable devices, AI, and other emerging technologies that are revolutionizing consumer lifestyles and wider industries.

COVID-19 has overwhelmed governments and healthcare resources around the world. This crisis underscores the importance of interoperability — the ability for clinical and non-clinical health IT systems to talk to each other, exchange data, and make use of key information. I’ve spent years advocating the importance of interoperability with CIOs across healthcare providers, payers, and government agencies.
Salesforce named a Leader in Healthcare CRM evaluation
As we continue to digest the final rules from CMS and ONC regarding wide-scale interoperability in healthcare, we’re excited to share some recent news from Forrester: Salesforce Health Cloud has been named a leader in The Forrester Wave™: Healthcare CRM Providers, Q12020, with MuleSoft recognized for its interoperability capabilities!
There has arguably never been a more optimistic time for interoperability in healthcare. The possibility of fully unlocking clinical data touches everything — from reducing costs and improving outcomes to powering telehealth and bringing house calls into the digital age to enabling the next generation of cancer care.
But barriers still remain to achieving interoperability that must be overcome. Below we share the vision we co-announced last summer at the White House for achieving true interoperability and driving transformation in healthcare.
