Mulesoft is quickly becoming the gold standard API platform for API-led development for many industries, especially healthcare. Although many business systems have long had the option of exposing APIs for interoperability, interconnecting these disparate APIs has always been a challenging endeavor due to the technical skills needed to build out a scalable and reliable API solution to accomplish this interoperability.

Mulesoft introduces the concept of API layers and patterns to help organizations build modular and scalable API solutions. The three main layers Mulesoft recommends are: Experience layer, Process layer, and System layer. The experience layer handles the presentation of your data to the end consumers, the process layer handles the business logic to fulfill your business objectives, and the system layer typically mimics the downstream system of record (this could be your order fulfillment, customer databases, EHR system in healthcare, etc.).

On the development side, Mulesoft incorporates the concept of flows to help developers visualize the flow from source to target. This visualization speeds up the development process and allows your development team to implement and deploy APIs in more of a rapid development approach that saves time and money. Mulesoft is the perfect API platform to quickly implement Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) APIs in healthcare and it is used by the largest healthcare systems in the U.S.
