I have a use case where Epic is sending an A60 Allergy transaction is set at the Patient level, but we have a system called VIBE which needs the ADT at an Encounter level instead. Currently we store ADT information in a MS SQL database for years, and we are querying it to get the latest Account Number to insert into the ADT^A60 for VIBE.

This MS SQL Visit Database was built over 20 years ago and is quite cumbersome to keep maintaining. I would like us to move aw

In this article we are going to see how we can use the WhatsApp instant messaging service from InterSystems IRIS to send messages to different recipients. To do this we must create and configure an account in Meta and configure a Business Operation to send the messages we want.

Let's look at each of these steps in more detail.

Setting up an account on Meta

This is possibly the most complicated point of the entire configuration, since we will have to configure a series of accounts until we can have the messaging functionality.

Here you can read the official Meta documentation.

I'm having problems with an HL7 message that is not properly parsed by IRIS (any version, including Ensemble).

The message is a OML_O21 and is valid, in fact is similar of what is described in the document "IHE Laboratory Technical Framework, Volume 2a (LAB TF-2a) version 6.0".
This is the sample from the IHE document (paragraph 2315):

Question Pascal Breugelmans · Jun 3, 2024

After upgrading we had 2 major problems with the new version:

- Resending messages adds blank lines.
Because we have many HL7 processes, we regulary have to resend messages if there is an outage of a server we connect with.

- IIS recycling causes webgateway connection problems, after change from PWS to IIS.
At unexpected times a connection can no longer be made.
The strange thing is that it does not occur with every recycle of the application pool.
Setting the password again in csp.ini usually works, but not always, which is of course a major problem.
I was wondering if there is a server componen

Anyone here know if the Implementation Partner program is still open, and if so, is there anyone we can contact to get more details? I've tried reaching out via the form on the website, I've called and left a message, and then I called and talked to someone a few weeks ago who said they would "forward my info over", but we still haven't heard back from anyone. We just want to get more info on what it entails, but can't seem to get in touch with anybody to talk about it.

Receiving HL7 messages from our EMR, and processing to send out to downstream system.  These are SIU_S12 messages, with a custom ZOR segment added by the EMR to include order information.  The purpose of including this segment is to allow us to only send messages to the vendor that contain a procedure ID that is included on the list of procedures desired by the vendor.  These values are in a LUT with the procedure ID in the key field, and a value of 1.

Question Santosh K · May 16, 2024

Hi Team,

I am trying to use the inbuilt class: EnsLib.HL7.Service.FileService to pass through an HL7 ADT message as a part of an HL7 to FHIR transformation. We have a client requirement, where we are receiving an NTE segment as a part of the ADT message. I am trying to map the NTE segment to an OBX Segment. I need to implement a counter for OBX segment whenever a NTE segment is found and map the NTE fields to the new OBX segment

How do I implement the counter for OBX?

Thanks

I am attempting to configure an inbound service that utilizes the EnsLib.SOAP.GenericService class. This service receives HL7-v3 content wrapped in SOAP requests. Despite reading the documentation on configuring SOAP services, I am still confused.

In my current configuration item "Fr_Centrak_RTLS", I have ‘Enable Standard Requests’ checked, ‘Pool Size’ set to 0, and the port is unspecified.

I have also configured a web application with the following details:

Hi, 

I'm new to IS and the HL7 transformations using the DTL.  I need some clarification on the foreach action.

I want to iterate over IN1 segments, and output only segments that contain certain allergy types in IN1-2 with foreach.  Inside the foreach block, I check for allergy type "FA" in IN1-2 and, if found, send the segment with only the required fields (fields #1, #2, #3, and #5 to be exact).  Please see the foreach block below:

 

I'm puzzled how come I'm getting field repetitions in the fields I populate within the foreach block  Here are the AL1 segments in the source message

We are upgrading to Iris for Healthshare 2024.1.  When resending HL7 (resend and edit), the new message displays with a blank line in between each line of text.  In order to resend the message successfully, these blank lines need to be deleted.  Is this a setting, a bug or new functionality?  Is there a way to remove this functionality?

Question Nimisha Joseph · Feb 29, 2024

I'm facing an issue while converting an ORU_R01 HL7 message to XML, specifically with the <pidgrpgrp> kind elements. When I use the getvalueat() method before conversion, the XML includes the <pidgrpgrp> and other <grp> elements, but when I don't use the getvalueat() method, the XML is generated without these <grp>elements.

I've attempted to debug the issue using zwrite on the HL7 message before and after calling getvalueat(). Before calling it, the content appears different, and after calling it, the content shows buildmap=1, etc.Please see the xml generated in 2 cases.

I've been preparing to take the InterSystems HL7 Interface Specialist certificate and on the page that explains the cert it lists one in-person class and one online course. I've been through the suggested online course but when I read through the practice questions there are a lot of things that aren't covered or mentioned in that course. Naturally I could go digging through the documentation but there is no specific guidance about what things to study.
I was just wondering if there is a better organized collection of study materials for cert prep. Is there an outline of topics to be comfortabl

We recently uploaded to OpenExchange a small application that I developed a while ago (and that @Jose-Tomas.Salvador improved and refined) that I often use when I need to generate large volumes of HL7 messaging.

The application is developed in NodeJS and works by generating patient and doctor data from seed files that you can modify to your liking to personalize the generated patients. The application will use the generated patients to prepare different types of HL7 messages. At the moment the application can generate the following types of messages. If the number of requested messages exceed

Question Mathew Burt · Jul 13, 2020

If you're viewing a HL7 message in the front end, with a schema correctly applied, you can mouse over a segment or a field and see the schema path, e.g:

Mousing over PV1 in the above message shows the schema path is "PIDgrp(1).PV1".

I'm writing a utility function which you pass an EnsLib.HL7.Message into. I'd like to loop through each segment and take action dependant on that schema path. How can I reference or determine that schema path in code?

Any help would be much appreciated!
