SMART Application Launch Framework PSS Update (PSS-2263)

This project is to bring the SMART (Substitutable Medical Applications, Reusable Technologies) Application Launch specification to Health Level 7. This specification enables applications to launch from within diverse health IT systems including EHRs, personal health records, data warehouses, and research environments. Apps are given access to contextual information (e.g. what patient record is open in the surrounding environment) and are authorized to access a limited data set using OAuth 2.0. Single Sign-On is supported using OpenID Connect. The deliverables includes a set of specifications defining a context-passing, app authorization, and SSO mechanisms to support app launch.
