#Health Connect

Our 3M Computer Assisted Coding system goes down on a regular basis for updates, the Applications folks like us to Disable the Business Operations when this happens and start them back up when they page the on-call person. The Business Operations have to be started in a sequence to guarantee that all the ADT being sent it processed before we start sending everything else.

Does Intersystems have a simple (albeit large) HL7 Reference Guide ?

InterSystems announces its second preview, as part of the developer preview program for the 2024.1 release.  This release will include InterSystems IRIS^®,  InterSystems IRIS^® for Health^TM, and HealthShare^® Health Connect.

Highlights

Many updates and enhancements have been added in 2024.1 and there are also brand-new capabilities, such as Using vectors in ObjectScript,  Vector Search (experimental), Multi-Volume Database, the ability to use Fast Online Backup (experimental), and the introduction of Multiple Super Server Ports.

Has anyone noticed that when IRIS is forced down that the EnsLib.JavaGateway.Services do not properly shut down and release the ports? While we can write a shell script to kill the processes at the OS level, I was wondering if anyone experienced this issue.

We are working on our Mirroring setup/failover and had the team testing forcing the Primary down to make the Backup to become the Primary Server. When this happened and we failed back, IRIS could not restart the JavaGateway.Services because the ports were still in use.

Hello,

I am trying to connect to a web socket endpoint that potentially has a number of different IP addresses for load balancing purposes. 

I have been asked whether it's possible to use a DNS name to resolve the IP address rather than statically assigning one specific IP address in the TCP Operation.

If it's not possible to resolve on a DNS name directly on the TCP operation, then I wondered whether it was possible to provide multiple IP addresses.

In the documentation, it mentions that I can provide a value like this "!192.168.1.1, 192.168.1.2, 192.168.1.

We resume our series of articles on the FHIR Adapter tool available to HealthShare HealthConnect and InterSystems IRIS users.

In the previous articles we have presented the small application on which we set up our workshop and showed the architecture deployed in our IRIS instance after installing the FHIR Adapter. In today's article we will see an example of how we can perform one of the most common CRUD (Create - Read - Update - Delete) operations, the reading operation, and we will do it by recovering a Resource.

What is a Resource?

I am trying to troubleshoot an issue with LDAP and a specific user. Besides what is in the Audit Database is there another way to look to see the LDAP functionality that is being called and the response, like there is with OAuth and the ISCLOG? The Audit Log is returning a failure (Unexpected - /api/atelier login failure | InterSystems Developer Community) for this particular user, and I want to get proof that it might be something with the LDAP and not IRIS.

Thanks

In a world where healthcare technology is rapidly evolving, the importance of efficient, reliable, and interoperable healthcare applications has never been greater. 

This is where FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) comes in, a standard that has revolutionized data exchange in healthcare. 

The introduction above is an example generated by AI, and as you can see, AI is around us everywhere, accessible to everyone… 

Why IRIS-FHIRfy? 

We need to learn more about using AI to our advantage, making life easier in every aspect.

According Wikipedia a mind map is a diagram used to visually organize information into a hierarchy, showing relationships among pieces of the whole. It is often created around a single concept, drawn as an image in the center of a blank page, to which associated representations of ideas such as images, words and parts of words are added. Major ideas are connected directly to the central concept, and other ideas branch out from those major ideas.

Sometimes we need to convert FHIR message to HL7 V2, e.g. to register a patient to the PACS system.
In this article, I will explain the steps to achieve the desired by using IRIS FHIR Server production.

Below are the steps we need to follow:

1. Make sure FHIRServer production is started.
2. Register Business Service with FHIRServer endpoint.
3. Define Business Processes to convert FHIR message to SDA and then Convert SDA to HL7 v2.
4. Post JSON resource to FHIRServer endpoint and get HL7 V2 response.

Let's review the steps in detail.
 

Step 1. Make sure FHIRServer production is started

Open the production page and make sure Production is started. In the next step, we need to make sure business service HS.FHIRServer.Interop.Service is registered with FHIRServer

We are excited to announce a new part of InterSystems documentation that makes it easier to upgrade InterSystems IRIS® data platform, InterSystems IRIS® for Health™, or HealthShare® Health Connect. The Upgrade Impact Checklist at https://docs.intersystems.com/upgrade shows you all the things you need to consider – and only the things you need to consider – in an upgrade between any two versions.

A customer contacted me with a problem trying to install Health Connect 2023.1 in a server with Red Hat 8 (no idea what 8.? it is). After review the logs the only error received are:

/tmp/HealthConnect-2023.1.0.235.1-lnxrh8x64/package/healthshare_databases/parameters returned 1.
	
	doParameters /tmp/isc_package_tmp_pid_21033/parameters.isc /tmp/isc_package_tmp_pid_21033 /var/log/isc/IRISInstall_202401191303.log healthshare_databases

...failed CallCommand healthshare_databases.package ...
...skipped databases.package for lack of healthshare_databases.

Lately my group has been seeing issues when signing in through the Management Portal or VS Code we are getting "Service Unavailable" errors returned to us. We recently migrated away from using the PWS to using Apache/InterSystems Web Gateway and using LDAP instead of Delegated Authentication. 

I have been on the hunt to find out where the problem might lie. When I run the "Test LDAP Authentication" from within the Management Portal, eventually I receive a response after getting a couple of timeouts while waiting for the response.

Prize pool: $14,000

We recently went through an Audit of our Security Policies and Procedures when it comes to IRIS. As a result of that Audit, we need to make adjustments to the way that Security is setup within IRIS. I have already done my changes on our TEST and DEVELOPMENT environments, but now I am trying to plan out how do we make these changes in Production.

These changes include moving away from the PWS, setting up Apache/Web Gateway, moving to LDAP instead of using Delegated Authentication, updating Web Applications, updating Resources, updating Services, etc.

Ran into an issue this morning, that I am having a hard time trying to track down what might have caused the issue. We have a Business Rule that sends HL7 ADT to a Business Process that inserts the data into a MS SQL Server using a Custom Business Operation (SQL Outbound Adapter).

Early yesterday morning the Custom Business Operation reset its connection through the Java Gateway Server to the MS SQL Database, when it reconnected to the Java Gateway/MS SQL Database it stopped processing. So, the Business Rule had over 40,000 queued up to process.

The 2023.1.3 extended maintenance releases of InterSystems IRIS, InterSystems IRIS for Health, and HealthShare Health Connect is now available. It provides bug fixes for any of the previous 2023.1.x releases.

You can find the detailed change lists / upgrade checklists on these pages:

• InterSystems IRIS
• InterSystems IRIS for Health
• HealthShare Health Connect

How to get the software

The software is available as both classic installation packages and container images.  For the complete list of available installers and container images, please refer to the Supported Platforms webpage.

I am trying to work on a ZMIRROR that will execute a shell script to failover our VIP at the hardware level when NotifyBecomePrimary occurs.

ZMIRROR ; Custom logic for specific mirroring eventsq;
NotifyBecomePrimary() PUBLIC {
 #;This procedure is called as a notification when this system becomes Primary.
 #;It does not return any value.
 #; invoke the command to select this host for running the crontabtry {
	Set cmd = "/usr/local/sbin/failover-intengtest-vip_SR"d$ZF(-100,"/SHELL /LOGCMD /STDOUT=/archive/logs/failover-intengtest-vip.

Within a DTL is it possible to access and update the Message Header properties of an EnsLib.HL7.Message?

Currently we have multiple EMR Services for each environment sending to 1 Business Process to Normalize the data, then it is sent to another Business Process to route the data. 

Since the SourceConfigName changes with every send to a Business Process, I am looking for a way to maintain the SourceConfigName of the SessionID so I know how to direct the message.

I am trying to write a ZMIRROR routine that makes a shell script call using $ZF

Set cmd = "/usr/local/sbin/failover-intengtest-vip"Do$ZF(-100,"/ASYNC /SHELL",cmd)

The script I am calling is returning an output to the screen, how do I get around this using $ZF without having to rewrite the scripts?

Thanks

Scott

Hello

We are in the process of upgrading to 2023.1 for InterSystems Health Connect, and the Business Rule Engine editor is very difficult to use compared to 2022.1. It's difficult to scan over the rules as it all looks the same style with barely any distinction between rules, constraints, conditions, whens etc. There's also tonnes of whitespace, and searching on the page is hit and miss (using Ctrl + F) . I can see the previous editor is still available when you modify the URL, but I'm wondering if we can set it to be the default editor, and if this is something supported.

Thanks

Lewis

Hi Community,

⏯ Using Code Based Source Control for Health Connect Cloud

Hi Developers,

EHR (Electronic Health Record) systems are designed in a proprietary format/structure and are not based on such market models as FHIR or HL7. Whereas some of those systems can interoperate data in a proprietary format for FHIR and further market models, others cannot. InterSystems has two platforms that can interoperate proprietary formats for market standards: InterSystems HealthShare Connect and InterSystems IRIS for Health.

I am attempting to setup my first OAuth2 client, as we are adventuring into the realm of making FHIR API calls to our EMR from HealthShare Health Connect. 

I have gone through and set up the Issuer Endpoint, and Client Configuration but now I want to test it and verify that the setup is correct. When I setup the Client Configuration, it would not allow me to use Discovery as it was saying I needed a "Client secret" but was not given one. So I set it up manually, thinking I hit all the information correctly.

Trying to setup my first OAuth 2 client to authenticate against Epic's Interconnect instance that is hosting FHIR/Web Service API's. Epic's documentation says the JWT request has to be sent as a POST request..

Does 

GetAuthorizationCodeEndpoint

and 

GetImplicitEndpoint

automatically put the request into a POST request, or do I need to format a %Net.HttpRequest to POST?

Thanks

Scott
