CareSource Interoperability Overview

CareSource’s Interoperability APIs are developer-friendly, FHIR-based APIs that allow third-party applications and vendors to connect their systems to CareSource patient and provider information.

These Interoperability APIs enable CareSource members to consent to the sharing of their data with a third-party application of their choice. Additionally, these APIs allow third-party application owners to access publicly available data in provider and pharmacy directories.

CareSource’s APIs support the technology and functionality below:

  • Developers can register their member-facing applications
  • Members can provide consent to an application for access to their data within the specified scope
  • The HL7 FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resource) standard is used for patient and publicly available provider data
  • Smart on FHIR is utilized for authorization flows related to member authorization
