This article provides an overview of the MedTech service data flow. You'll learn about the different data processing stages within the MedTech service that transforms device data into Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR®)-based [Observation](https://www.hl7.org/fhir/observation.html) resources.

Data from health-related devices or medical devices flows through a path in which the MedTech service transforms data into FHIR, and then data is stored on and accessed from the FHIR service. The health data path follows these steps in this order: ingest, normalize, group, transform, and persist. In this data flow, health data is retrieved from the device in the first step of ingestion. After the data is received, it's processed or normalized per user-selected or user-created schema templates. Normalized health data is simpler to process and can be grouped. In the next step, health data is grouped into three Operate parameters. After the health data is normalized and grouped, it can be processed or transformed through FHIR destination mappings, and then saved or persisted on the FHIR service.

The health data path follows these steps in this order: ingest, normalize, group, transform, and persist. Health data is retrieved from the device in the first step of ingestion. After the data is received, it's processed, or normalized per a user-selected/user-created schema template called the device mapping. Normalized health data is simpler to process and can be grouped. In the next step, health data is grouped into three Operate parameters. After the health data is normalized and grouped, it can be processed or transformed through FHIR destination mappings, and then saved or persisted on the FHIR service.

Ingest is the first stage where device data is received into the MedTech service. The ingestion endpoint for device data is hosted on an [Azure Event Hubs Namespace event hub](../../event-hubs/index.yml). Azure Event Hubs platform supports high scale and throughput with ability to receive and process millions of messages per second. It also enables the MedTech service to consume messages asynchronously, removing the need for devices to wait while device data gets processed.
