Healthcare IT News: Open APIs

Application Programming Interface (API) allows multiple applications to interact with one another and transmit data. An API application provides a framework that developers can use to build web services quickly. Depending on its configuration, an API can enable a system to send or retrieve data that can update an individual’s record or provide aggregate data that can be used to create reports. Open APIs are application programming interfaces that are made publically available to software developers. Such APIs are readily available on the internet and shared freely, which allows the owner of a network-accessible service to provide universal access to the customers. Open APIs in the healthcare sector ensure that patient data is accessed and put to use without special efforts.
