Prototyping data ingestion pipelines
summary
CDC's Public Health Building Blocks are a set of containerized microservices that use FHIR to validate, convert, geocode, and link records; pilots with Los Angeles County and Virginia convert ECR CDA XML into FHIR using a customized Microsoft FHIR Converter with new ECR templates. The team maps roughly 60–70% mapped of requested ECR fields so far, packages blocks to run on Azure, GCP, or on‑prem to keep PHI local, and publishes the code on GitHub for reuse and contribution.
