I'm launching Cloud Health Office v3.0.0 — an open-source platform for healthcare payer EDI integration.
## The Problem
Healthcare payers (insurance companies) spend 6-8 weeks integrating each new payer for EDI transactions (claims, eligibility, prior auth). The process is: - Entirely manual - Vendor lock-in heavy - Compliance-intensive (HIPAA, CMS regulations) - Expensive ($50k-$100k per integration)
With the CMS-0057-F deadline (Jan 1, 2027), most payers need to support FHIR APIs but have no clear path.
## What I Built
A production-ready platform that: - Handles X12 EDI (270/271/276/277/278/837/835/275) ↔ FHIR R4 transformation - Deploys to any cloud (Azure/AWS/GCP via Kubernetes) - Zero-code payer onboarding (5 minutes vs weeks) - CMS-0057-F compliant out of the box - 424 automated tests
Tech stack: TypeScript/Node.js, Kubernetes, Argo Workflows, Kafka, HashiCorp Vault
## Why Open Source
Healthcare interoperability should be a solved problem. The industry is fragmented with proprietary solutions. I wanted to create a reference implementation that: - Shows how to do FHIR properly - Avoids vendor lock-in - Reduces barrier to entry for health tech startups - Helps payers meet regulatory deadlines
## Current Status
- v3.0.0 just shipped (multi-cloud support) - 424 tests passing - Production deployments in test environments - Apache 2.0 license

Would love feedback from the HN community, especially around: - Multi-cloud deployment patterns - FHIR implementation edge cases - Healthcare compliance automation
Happy to answer questions!
