INTEGRATION

How it works

A closer look at our FHIR API and how it works for real projects

Our FHIR API

At the core of our integration strategy is a two-way, standards-based FHIR API, designed to make working with our platform as intuitive and interoperable as possible.

How do we do this? We make it possible for other systems to connect directly to our platform using a public-facing FHIR interface. This is aligned with R4 specifications and documented using OpenAPI, so your teams have all the tools they need to interact with our system in a familiar, reliable way.

Key features of our API

Our FHIR API is designed to simplify healthcare integration while supporting the needs of modern developers. Explore some of the key features that make integrating with us simple:

Bi-directional data

Our API isn’t just for fetching data - we are continuing to iterate, with the goal of ensuring it is fully bi-directional.

Industry-standard protocols

Support for OAuth2 and SMART on FHIR, ensuring that dataaccess is secure, scoped, and fully auditable.

No complex translation layers

What you see in the API is a true representation of how we store and manage data internally - reducing integration friction.

Developer-friendly and well documented

Built using OpenAPI standards, with clear documentation and tools to help your team get up and running quickly.

Example integration projects

Any integration project should start with one simple question - what are you trying to achieve? The good news is that we've probably heard it before, which makes it easy for us to guide you on what to do next. Here are just some of the common integration requests we get, and how it works.

Sending data to/from Clinitouch to existing Electronic Patient Record

We get it, you don't want to have to enter the same information in two systems - or worse have to be logging in and out of different platforms to see the information you need.  

Example use cases:

- Automatically send patient observations (like blood pressure readings or blood glucose levels) into the EPR
- Share alerts and escalations with care teams in real-time
- Record remote consultation summaries or patient notes against an existing patient record
- Sync episode/encounter data into the EPR timeline
- Reduce admin overhead with structured data entries (via FHIR), rather than PDFs or screenshots

Adding data from other devices or tools into Clinitouch

If you are already using other apps or clinical systems, we can bring that data into Clinitouch so that you have a single view of your patients - without duplicating work.

Example use cases:

- Bulk uploading patients into Clinitouch from an existing EPR
- Pull in logbook/diary entries from third-party patient apps
- Connect with external health data sources, eg. wearables
- Schedule remote consultations, and insert summaries or outcomes notes

Exporting data from Clinitouch

Whether you're building your own internal dashboard, integrating into a large-scale population health tool, or simply want to analyse your data elsewhere, our FHIR API is your key to new insights.

Example use cases:

- Visualise Clinitouch patient data in your own business intelligence (BI) tools
- Export data for auditing, reporting on return on investment (ROI), or recharge billing
- Monitor multiple cohorts across different platforms with unified insights
- Build downstream automated workflows based off of Clinitouch events (eg. once a patient is discharged)
