Medplum has become one of the first platforms to achieve certification for the Hub role in the Integrated Reporting Applications (IRA) IHE Profile, marking a milestone in radiology workflow interoperability. This certification positions Medplum as a central orchestrator for real-time synchronization between radiology applications, addressing one of healthcare's most persistent challenges: fragmented diagnostic workflows.

The IRA profile, published in October 2023 by Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE), represents a transformative approach to radiology interoperability. Built on FHIRcast 3.0.0 and FHIR R5 standards, IRA enables different applications—from PACS systems to AI tools—to share context and content seamlessly during diagnostic reporting. For Medplum, certification as a FHIRcast Hub means our platform can now coordinate complex radiology workflows where multiple applications must work together in harmony.

Healthcare APIs need flexibility. While FHIR's standard CRUD operations (create, read, update, delete) handle most use cases, real-world healthcare workflows often require custom logic that goes beyond basic data manipulation. That's why we're excited to introduce custom FHIR operations in Medplum.

What Are FHIR Operations?​

FHIR operations are the "dollar sign things" – endpoints like $validate, $expand, or $match that perform specialized functions beyond standard CRUD operations. These are technically called "operations" in FHIR terminology, distinct from the basic "interactions" used for everyday data management.

Medplum is the platform of choice for technical leaders in healthcare, and that has given us a unique perspective into the transformative power of AI in healthcare - we get asked about it every single day.

We know that technical leaders feel the pressure to define and execute on an AI strategy, and to demonstrate tangible progress to teams and stakeholders, that's expected in times of rapid technical advances.

That's why we're thrilled to announce our beta support for Anthropic's Model Context Protocol (MCP), marking a significant leap forward in how large language models (LLMs) can securely and intelligently interact with healthcare infrastructure and systems of record.

Radiology is a bellwether for innovations in Healthcare IT due to the time-sensitive and data-intensive workflow. Naturally, radiology applications lead the way in adopting real-time functionality like FHIRcast, a WebSockets-based protocol that enables development of highly interactive applications.
