Introduction

This page lists FHIR servers that are publicly available for testing. These are public services provided by volunteers and HL7 makes no representations concerning their safety or reliability.

In order to avoid spam etc, the servers are generally password protected. A contact is provided to get a password.

BTW: List of publically available test data (some of these test servers preload some of this data):

• [Base: What is in the specification]
• [Smart on FHIR test data]

Status

The status of publicly available FHIR servers is monitored using UptimeRobot at https://stats.uptimerobot.com/9DArDu1Jo. If you would like a publicly available FHIR server added to the UptimeRobot status page, email [Sean McIlvenna[1]].

Servers

Note that these servers are testing servers. They may be sporadically unavailable, and as the FHIR specification is a moving target, they may not always implement the latest version, or do so correctly.

• http://health.gnusolidario.org:5000 GNU Health FHIR server
  • Supports read, validate and search for Patient, DiagnosticReport, Practitioner, Procedure, Observation, Condition, FamilyHistory
  • DSTU1
  • A Flask app. It's connected to the GNU Health community server database. Consequently, it's possible to create and update patients, doctors, etc. through the GNU Health frontend and the changes should be reflected on the FHIR server (indirect write support, I suppose).
  • I think our goal is to use the FHIR server as an adapter for non-GNU Health EHRs and users, since we already have synchronization between instances. But, there are other interesting possibilites, too.
  • I'm updating the code frequently and it's still in the dev stages (e.g., adding new resources frequently).
