Question Stephen De Gabrielle · Dec 27, 2018

Is there any good documentation/tutorials on creating gateways in both directions between FHIR and Hl7v2 (for Health Connect)?

the scenarios I'm most interested in

1. Client application sends a FHIR demographic query to Health Connect - and the interface has to convert this to Hl7v2 QBP^Q11 message to the PAS.

2. Health connect sends a PDF document (from a file or HL7v2 interface) to an EPR over FHIR.

Thanks

Stephen

Question Timothy Rea · Oct 12, 2018

Hello,

I'm wondering what the path is to learning healthshare & ensemble?   I've looked on the learning page and its minimally helpful.   I've found that as a long time mumps programmer that new jobs are requiring this.  I've just been using mumps to assist with epic emr.   Everything I'm seeing is either VistA or Healthshare.  Does someone know where do I go to learn these apps?  Seems like a catch 22.  You need to know these prior to getting a job but you can't get a job where you can learn them.    Frustrating.

Question David Foard · Sep 7, 2018

Is there any out of the box capability in Ensmeble to remove an FHS segment from a batch file? We have a client that is creating a batch of HL7 messages and they insert an FHS but there is no trailing FTS.

We are hoping to avoid custom COS code to handle this scenario.

Question Gigi La Course · Jul 11, 2018

I am working in Ensemble (Health Connect) and doing an HL7 translation

I have what I hope is a simple coding question (but for the life of me, I am struggling).  I have a requirement where I need to extract the last 5 characters of a variable length string.  The return value should be those last 5 characters.  For example - String = CE325ACCT98765 where the return value of the function needs to be 98765.  I am just drawing a blank.

thank you,

Gigi

Question Paul Riker · Dec 27, 2017

We do not use the out of the box web server (57772) for HealthConnect, we run a stand alone instance of Apache with https enabled. Now when I go to Tools > Templates > Web Form Wizard,  I get an error Navigation Cancelled. I get a similar error when I try Tools > Add Ons > Add On.

Any ideas?

Question Jenna Makin · Dec 4, 2017

Hi-

I have searched through documentation, etc and see many mentions of using Ensemble / Health Connect along with the Java Gateway to interface with JMS Queues, but see no specific documentation on how to do this.

Does anyone have any information, or a concise example of using the Java Gateway to allow Ensemble / Health Connect to be able to place messages and retrieve messages from a JMS Queue?

Thanks

Question Jenna Makin · Nov 7, 2017

Hi-

Please excuse my rather limited knowledge of HL7.

In Ensemble, I have a HL7 message that contains several Z segments.  I have created a custom schema to represent the new Z segments along with the new DocType Structure and Message Structure

How does Ensemble/Health Connect know which custom schema to use?  I believe it has to be indicated in the MSH segment somewhere, but not sure where exactly that would be.   Is the version simply updated with the new schema name or is there some other field?

TIA

Ken

Question Stephen De Gabrielle · Oct 2, 2017

Hi

Reading through the installation guide I found a fairly stern warning in the robustness checklist not to use the inbuilt apache web server.

>Use a robust web server. Do not use the limited Apache server installed with
>Ensemble. It is provided as a convenience for use on development systems and
> is not a fully capable web server.

We only have a few users, the Interface team (3), an integration consultant(1) and an interface monitoring/development vendor.

Do we need a 'robust web server' for using HealthShare Health Connect Integration engine?

1. Scope and Objective:

Recently we supported a few NHS cases that required TIE (Trust Integration Engine) integration with the PKB service.   Hence this article is meant to be a 10-minute quick guide to describe a demo solution (simple configurations and end-2-end implementation steps) for Health Connect (Ensemble) Integration with PKB (Patient-Knows-Best) service.

HealthShare HealthConnect and Information Exchange version 15.03 support import transformations from C-CDA 2.1 to SDA. You can find these transforms in your installation's csp/xslt/SDA3 directory. For general information about import transforms, see "CDA Documents and XSL Transforms in HealthShare" in Overview of Health Connect.

Among the enhancements to import functionality added in connection with C-CDA 2.1 support is the ability to preprocess your C-CDA input files prior to the transformation done for import.
