Introduction
Healthcare organizations increasingly expect Electronic Prescribing (eRx) solutions to support HL7 FHIR. To help EHR vendors, telehealth platforms, and digital health companies build interoperable healthcare applications faster, LogiCoy eRx now provides FHIR R5 APIs alongside its existing REST APIs.
LogiCoy eRx is a Surescripts-certified electronic prescribing platform that provides both REST and FHIR R5 APIs for healthcare application developers. The platform supports 11 FHIR R5 API endpoints, connects to over 2 million healthcare professionals via the Surescripts network, and offers a sandbox environment for rapid integration testing.
FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) complements these APIs by providing a standardized, REST-based framework for exchanging healthcare information. By adopting FHIR, organizations can streamline integration efforts, improve interoperability, and support flexible integration strategies.
Many healthcare organizations specifically look for standards-based APIs that align with their long-term interoperability strategy. Supporting FHIR allows developers to build against familiar resources and workflows while reducing the learning curve associated with integrating across different systems.
FHIR R5 Support in LogiCoy eRx
Our new FHIR implementation is built on the HL7 FHIR R5 specification and provides a standards-based interface to our existing electronic prescribing platform.
Developers can leverage RESTful FHIR APIs in addition to our existing ePrescription APIs to access the full capabilities of the LogiCoy eRx platform. Both read and write operations are supported, along with standard RESTful FHIR search capabilities.
Currently supported FHIR APIs include:
Core Entity Resources
- Clinician
- Patient
- Pharmacy
- Practice
- ServiceLocation
Prescribing Workflow APIs
- Prescription
- DrugSearch
- RxChange
- RxRenewal
History and Notifications
- RxHistory
- Notification
These FHIR APIs cover the core prescribing workflows required by modern healthcare applications, enabling developers to build interoperable solutions with less custom mapping and integration effort.
Built for Modern Healthcare Applications
FHIR support opens new possibilities for a wide range of healthcare software providers, including:
- Electronic Health Record (EHR) vendors
- Telehealth platforms
- Digital health startups
Whether you are developing a new prescribing workflow or modernizing an existing healthcare application, standards-based integration can significantly reduce implementation effort and accelerate time to market.

- 2.29 million healthcare professionals connected via the Surescripts network
- 30.5 billion health intelligence transactions exchanged on Surescripts in 2025
- EPCS, ONC, and Surescripts certified — no additional certification burden for integrators
- Sandbox available for development and testing before production deployment
REST API vs FHIR API: When to Use Which
LogiCoy eRx offers two integration paths. Choose based on your interoperability needs:
| LogiCoy REST API | LogiCoy FHIR R5 API | |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | Custom integrations with full platform control | Standards-based interoperability with EHR systems |
| Data format | JSON (proprietary schema) | FHIR R5 resources (HL7 standard) |
| Use case | Embedding prescribing into custom workflows | Connecting with systems that already support FHIR |
| Learning curve | LogiCoy-specific documentation | Familiar to developers who know FHIR |
| Interoperability | Point-to-point integration | Designed for multi-system interoperability |
Both APIs provide access to the same underlying prescribing capabilities. Choose REST for maximum flexibility or FHIR for standards-based interoperability — or use both together.
Standards and Compliance
LogiCoy eRx aligns with key healthcare interoperability standards and regulations:
- HL7 FHIR R5 Specification — the standard underlying our FHIR APIs
- ONC Health IT Certification Program (HTI-1 Final Rule) — federal interoperability requirements for health IT
- Surescripts Network Alliance — connecting 2.29 million healthcare professionals for trusted health intelligence sharing
By building on these standards, LogiCoy eRx helps integrators meet regulatory requirements while reducing custom development effort.
Looking Ahead
Interoperability continues to shape the future of healthcare technology. By adding FHIR R5 support, we are making it easier for healthcare organizations to build connected, standards-based applications without sacrificing the capabilities of a mature electronic prescribing platform.
You integrate with familiar FHIR workflows. Let LogiCoy handle the complexity of ePrescribing connectivity.
We invite healthcare technology companies to explore our platform, evaluate our APIs, and discover how standards-based integration can simplify the development.
We look forward to helping you build the next generation of connected healthcare applications.
