Re: FHIR on schema.org

people are already trying to use FHIR as a standard for sharing their
healthcare data for research. While organizations can't share other
people's data in public, there's plenty of anecdotal evidence that the
people will do it themselves. So the use case isn't impossible, it's only a
policy question, as Marc says

I'm interested in finding out more about this, how schema.org works with
FHIR - is someone from the FHIR community involved in this effort?
