In this interview, two health care interoperability leaders make a strong case for the value of the FHIR Business Alliance. We hear about FHIR as a path toward interoperability from Duncan Weatherston, Chief Executive Officer at Smile Digital Health and FHIR Business Alliance Chairperson, and Mario Hyland, Senior Vice President and Founder of AEGIS.net, Inc. and FHIR Business Alliance Board Member and Membership Committee.The Fast Healthcare Interoperable Resources (FHIR) standard, adopted several years ago by HL7, solves data sharing problems through well-defined, vendor-independent APIs, which are the modern approach to interoperability. Although FHIR is fully established and supported by nonprofit organizations, its implementation has been hampered up to now by lack of a strong business focus. The FHIR Business Alliance is bringing companies together to address that.Learn more about FHIR Business Alliance: https://www.fhirball.org/Health IT Community: https://www.healthcareittoday.com/

In today's rapidly changing investment landscape, the expectations placed on corporations include a call for greater responsibility and transparency. Companies that focus on long-term value creation for their shareholders must prioritize financial stability, transparency, decentralized collaboration, and a culture of open communication. In doing so, these firms are the best positioned to reap the benefits of their efforts and measure the value they create over time. Building a better working environment and focusing on the long-term value creation leads to a sustainable business—even in economic downturns—while charting the course for the next generation of leaders, thereby ensuring the company's principles continue to thrive.

 I am an active member in my local Chamber of Commerce and have been since joining in October 2019. Check out one of my first episodes from Dec 2019 called, "I'm the Only Cleaner", where I shared my initial impression of joining my first-ever chamber in 15 years in business at that point. Also check out the episode, "Get a Name for Doing", where I was mentored by fellow chamber member and leadership coach Ken Byler of Higher Ground Consulting. Ken taught me how to add the most value to the chamber and make the greatest difference. Ken was SO right. I dove in right away and was able to make a big difference during Covid. I developed a reputation and name for doing. I've never taken my foot off the pedal in my goal to get a name for doing and adding value. Last fall, I joined the Membership Committee and immediately helped them determine how to have greater impact with the current membership as well as how to add more. I suggested that we, the membership committee of 8 members call the entire membership of 300 to connect with them and ask them some questions. Here's what we asked. 1.      What is your business's greatest struggle?2.      How can the chamber help you in this struggle?3.      What is the chamber's blind spot? What are we doing that we shouldn't and what aren't we doing that we should?The list of members was sent out and we each selected who we would volunteer to call from October through December 2022. I was a little ambitious and selected 60. The others teased me a little, but they were impressed. I then took time each week and emailed and called every single one of the 60. Most were difficult and unreachable. I made contact in some form with over 20 and had meaningful 30+ minute conversations with 15 members. It was amazing! I had so much fun and met some great fellow members of the chamber. After I was done, I created a report and submitted it to the chamber office. I had no idea that this report would become the basis of the 2023 5-Year Chamber Strategy Session. I was invited into this board-only process as a special guest. The work I did for the chamber and the growth we had in Carfagno Commercial Cleaning (C3) locally made our cleaning company the unanimous choice for the 2022 Cornerstone Award. This is a prestigious award for Small Business of the Year in the Indian Valley Chamber. It's amazing to see this play out now. I simply did what Ken Byler advised and it earned me the top reputation among all companies in my local community. This is leading to tremendous influence and business growth.That first part was an update and sales pitch for WHY you should join your chamber, especially if you're in commercial cleaning. Let's switch gears. We, as a membership committee, learned through actual data and 1-on-1 conversations that the #1 struggle our members are facing is hiring. They were very concerned with how to find quality applicants, how to retain them, and what's going on out there in our culture? Why don't young people want to work? Where's the ambition?The chamber of commerce is an international organization. They operate independently, but are well connected. Our chamber executive director, Steve Hunsberger, is very plugged in at the local, county, state, and federal levels to learn and bring back to us, the small business owners in the community. Steve is seeing similar struggles nationwide. The workforce is declining. Businesses are getting nervous. They are having more trouble picking up clients as hiring is affecting them and both their clie

I was able to allow my teammates to expense items in multiple currencies allowing them to pay for anything, anywhere at anytime. We weren't asked for any personal guarantees or to pay any setup or monthly SaaS fees.Not only does Jeeves save us time, but they also give us cash back on our purchases including expenses like Google, Facebook, or AWS every month. New users can earn up to 3% cashback for their first 90 days.The best part is Jeeves puts up the cash, and you settle up once every 30 days in any currency you want, unlike some other corporate card companies that make you pre-pay every month. Jeeves also recently launched its Jeeves Growth and Working Capital initiative for startups and fast-growing companies to enable more financial freedom for companies. The best thing of all is that Jeeves is live in  24 countries including Canada, US and many other countries around the world.Jeeves truly offers the best all-in-one expense management corporate card program for all startups especially the ones at Ripple and we at Tank Talks could not be more excited to officially partner with them.
