We've got some exciting things released this month! *queue the 🎉 please*
CMS requires health plans to enable payer to payer data exchange for their former members with up to 5 years of historical data. 1upHealth supports both the ability to comply with the regulations and to leverage the newly available clinical and claims data from other health plans. Use 1upHealth's Payer to Payer product to meet the regulations, request & ingest data from other payers, and store it in the computable FHIR® standard.

Due to changes to how Amazon API Gateway processes special characters against REST, FHIR Search no longer supports plain text pipe character (
|) for any GET request URL query string, and therefore must be URL-encoded. When using FHIR search syntax, for example, on a Patient.identifier, the user should specify the search with
%7C:<1upServerEndpoint>/Patient?identifier=<system>%7C<idvalue>For FHIR R4 only we support the following search parameters:
- _type
- _since
- start
- since

1upHealth has added functionality to allow you to bulk delete all FHIR resources at once rather than making a delete request for each unique resource type. You can delete all FHIR resources, and all patient data maintained therein, by making a DELETE request to the FHIR delete endpoint. Read more here.
We added support for OAuth 2.0 with Proof Key for Code Exchange(PKCE) to the 1upHealth Patient Application. Such changes were implemented in accordance to the HL7 Smart App Launch IG (v1.1.0)(http://hl7.org/fhir/smart-app-launch/2021May/) draft recommending that all SMART apps should support PKCE.
App developers reported issues connecting to Emory Health, a Cerner EHR. This bug has been resolved.
