HL7 Expertise

While most medical industry software provide their own variation of HL7 interchange, the flexibility inherent to current HL7 specifications allows disparity between file formats generated and accepted.

 

HL7.org states:
"[HL7] contains many optional data elements and data segments, making it adaptable to almost any site. While providing great flexibility, its optionality also makes it impossible to have reliable conformance tests of any vendor's implementation and also forces implementers to spend more time analyzing and planning their interfaces to ensure that both parties are using the same optional features."

 

 

Product Description 


 

 

What is HL7?

Health Level Seven (HL7) is one of several American National Standards Institute (ANSI) -accredited Standards Developing Organizations (SDOs) operating in the healthcare arena. Most SDOs produce standards (sometimes called specifications or protocols) for a particular healthcare domain such as pharmacy, medical devices, imaging or insurance (claims processing) transactions. HL7’s domain is clinical and administrative data.
