Fasten Health

aid: fasten-health
name: Fasten Health
description: Fasten Health is a healthcare data interoperability company offering a unified medical record platform that gives
  patients and developers access to clinical data across the U.S. healthcare system. Fasten began as an open-source project
  — Fasten OnPrem, a self-hosted personal/family electronic medical record manager that ingests FHIR Bundles and is distributed
  under GPL-3.0 with 2.7k+ GitHub stars. The team then productized the connectivity layer as Fasten Connect, a commercial
  REST + FHIR API and Stitch client SDK suite that lets developers retrieve clinical records from 50,000+ healthcare systems
  and 60,000+ organizations including Epic, Cerner, MyChart, Kaiser Permanente, HCA, Ascension, Humana, and Medicare. Founded
  by engineers who lived through the fragmentation of health data firsthand and based in New York City, Fasten ships GPL/MIT/Apache
  2.0 open source repos alongside the hosted Fasten Connect platform.

  description: Fasten Connect is the commercial REST + FHIR API for retrieving patient clinical records from 50,000+ U.S.
    healthcare systems. The API surface is documented in OpenAPI 1.0.11 at api.connect.fastenhealth.com/v1 and uses HTTP Basic
    authentication with public/private key pairs prefixed public_test_/private_test_ or public_live_/private_live_. Capabilities
    include catalog discovery (search brands, fetch organization metadata, brand logos, bulk catalog export), patient-to-provider
    connection orchestration via the /bridge/connect and /bridge/reconnect endpoints, organization-connection status checks,
    bulk EHI (Electronic Health Information) export requests with task polling and signed downloads, TEFCA synthetic-patient
    revocation for testing, and a support-ticket endpoint.

    Web Component, a React SDK, and a React Native SDK — each with quickstart and reference docs. Client events stream connection
    lifecycle, error, and consent signals back to the host app. The Stitch element source repos (fasten-stitch-element-react,
    fasten-stitch-element-react-native) are MIT-licensed on GitHub with companion playground apps.
