ResultsMyWay: combining Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR), Clinical Quality Language (CQL), and informational resources to create a newborn screening application.

Newborn screening (NBS) can be life-changing for the families of infants who test positive for a rare condition. While resources exist to support these families, there can be delays in sharing these resources due to communication lag between the laboratory, result interpreting clinician, family of the newborn, and additional care providers. This delay can also be exacerbated when additional health history is required from the mother and infant. ResultsMyWay is a proof-of-concept application that uses Clinical Quality Language (CQL) to automate the search for this additional health history. It also translates the NBS results into Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR), increasing both the ease of exchange and the future utility of these data points. After the families are given the NBS results, ResultsMyWay then acts as a hub for several types of informational resources about the recently diagnosed condition.
