FHIR Connect, published by the openEHR vendor Better, is a configurable mapping specification and tooling layer that lets an openEHR-based clinical data repository expose FHIR APIs to external systems, rather than requiring a hand-built integration for every consumer. Better’s own announcement describes the tool’s expansion through 2024–2025. This is cited as evidence that the openEHR-to-FHIR bridge is active, maintained tooling rather than a theoretical possibility — relevant to the paper’s claim that CA Core+ alignment would be net-new configuration work on top of existing bridging infrastructure, not a research problem.
