Modern Healthcare Integration in the Wake of NextGen's Announcement

This week, NextGen Healthcare announced that Mirth Connect, the healthcare integration engine that has been a cornerstone of interoperability for countless organizations, will no longer be available.

We've heard many success stories from enthusiastic early adopters who have smoothly upgraded to v4. Thank you all for your support and your feedback in this process!

However, we've identified an issue affecting some Medplum deployments that are configured to automatically pull the :latest Docker tag. With our recent release of Medplum 4.0.0, these deployments may be caught in a failing deployment loop. This post explains why this is happening and how to resolve it.

Medplum v4.0.0 is coming soon! Many of the new features in this release have already been rolled out incrementally, making the v4.0.0 designation more symbolic of the semantic versioning. We prioritize stability and backwards compatibility and work hard to minimize unnecessary changes. However, sometimes changes are necessary to keep the platform up-to-date and secure. This document outlines the key updates in v4.0.0, including important information for self-hosting deployments and TypeScript SDK users.
