How ConnectHealth Unified Device and FHIR Data for an Elderly RPM Platform

An elderly care remote patient monitoring company needed a mobile app and provider portal built on a Medplum FHIR-native backend. ConnectHealth built the data mapping and normalization layer that turned raw BLE device output and FHIR resources into structured application data, so the engineering team could focus on the patient experience, care manager portal, and billing workflows.

Outcomes

A Reusable Mapping Layer, Not a One-Off Integration

ConnectHealth reduced the custom mapping and normalization work needed to turn device-generated vitals into data the application layer could use.

  • One reusable data layer instead of custom parsing code per device type
  • Engineering team free to focus on the patient experience, care manager workflows, and billing
  • A scalable path to add device types and FHIR-native backends without rebuilding the mapping logic
The Problem

Two Mapping Problems Before Any Feature Could Ship

The platform needed an elderly-friendly patient experience, centralized care management, BLE-connected devices, and CPT billing, all running on a FHIR-native backend. That created two separate mapping problems.

01
Raw BLE Readings Weren't Structured Data

Blood pressure, heart rate, and other vitals arrived as raw BLE output and had to be normalized into structured FHIR Observation resources before anything downstream could use them.

02
FHIR Data Didn't Match the Application Models

Once vitals existed as FHIR data in Medplum, they still needed reshaping into the specific models the care manager portal, admin dashboard, and billing module consumed, without hand-writing mapping logic for every data type.

The Tech Stack

Built on a Medplum FHIR-native backend with a bidirectional mapping layer connecting devices, clinical data, and the application.

  • FHIR Resources (Observation, Patient, Encounter)
  • ConnectHealth Mapping Engine
  • Helix AI
  • AWS Customer-Owned VPC
What We Built

What We Built With ConnectHealth

The elderly-optimized mobile experience, BLE device pairing, care manager portal, admin portal, CPT billing, video calls, chat, reminders, and time tracking were all built as custom application capabilities on top of ConnectHealth's mapping layer.

Device Data to FHIR

ConnectHealth's mapping engine normalized incoming BLE device readings, blood pressure, heart rate, and other vitals, into structured FHIR Observation resources. That removed the need for custom parsing code per device type.

  • Bidirectional mapping engine: device data to FHIR, FHIR to custom application schema
  • Reusable FHIR resource handling for Observation, Patient, and Encounter
  • Helix AI: plain-language workflow description to an approvable implementation plan
  • Customer-owned AWS VPC deployment, HIPAA-ready
