• Learn about FHIR
  CMS, Updated March 16, 2026
  CMS's "Learn about FHIR" page includes a dedicated PACIO Project section describing PACIO's work to develop FHIR implementation guides and reference implementations for post-acute care data exchange. The page cites PACIO use cases such as functional status, cognitive status, re-assessment time points, advance directives, and other areas central to PACIO's scope.
• 2026 Interoperability Standards Advisory Reference Edition
  ASTP/ONC, March 2026
  The 2026 ISA Reference Edition includes PACIO references in standards contexts related to functional status, cognitive status, and advance directive interoperability. This matters to PACIO because it reflects federal standards advisory recognition of PACIO implementation guide work and related interoperability use cases.
• The Unseen Bridge: Why Interoperability Is the Heart of Modern Social Work
  Health & Social Work / Oxford Academic, March 28, 2026
  This article explicitly identifies PACIO and Gravity as projects advancing health interoperability relevant to social work. It describes PACIO's role in clinical transitions, FHIR implementation guides, functional and cognitive status exchange, and use of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health.
• A Call for Action to Strengthen Stakeholder Readiness for ICF Data Exchange in European Health Data Space: A Structured Narrative Review
  Frontiers in Public Health, April 20, 2026
  This review cites PACIO as a FHIR-based model for functioning and post-acute care data exchange and notes that a PACIO pilot exchanged patient data across 12 systems using standardized HL7 FHIR resources with ICF as the semantic framework. This matters to PACIO because it shows international recognition of PACIO's work as a practical model for ICF-based interoperability.
