Hi Community,

There is a new PDF Resource published on our official site depicting key features and a comparison of InterSystems healthcare interoperability products: Health Connect and IRIS For Health.

I think this could be useful for the Community.

Hello InterSystems HL7 Community,

InterSystems Certification is developing a certification exam for InterSystems HL7 interface specialists and, if you match the exam candidate description given below, we would like you to beta test the exam. The dates the exam will be available for beta testing are March 28 - April 30, 2023. Interested beta testers should sign up now by emailing certification@intersystems.com(see below for more details). 

Note: The InterSystems HL7 Interface Specialist certification exam is version 2.

The new production component driver for Deltanji enables highly granular management of InterSystems Interoperability Productions with tight integration into the management portal. We presented it at the InterSystems UK&I summit this week and it received a great reception. 

It solves the current pain-point of Interoperability Productions being defined in a single monolithic class definition. Deltanji source control increases the granularity with which items can be managed. Instead of versioning a single class definition containing all the configuration items, this new component driver allows individual configuration items to be managed separately. Each configuration item has its own versioning and revision history and can be checked-out, checked-in, and deployed independently of any other items in the same Production.

Because each configuration item within a production class is managed by Deltanji as a first-class component in its own right, Deltanji provides all the source control, versioning, and workflow capabilities that it provides for any other component.

Watch the below clip to see it in action. 

We'll be talking about this new feature in more detail at our User Group Session on November 3rd at 3pm (GMT). Register your attendance on Eventbrite here - https://bit.ly/3yqzfvS

To find out more about Deltanji, visit our website georgejames.com or drop us an email info@georgejames.com 

We are excited to announce the newest addition to our early access program - the Health Data De-ID tool.

The tool will de-identify structured clinical data according to HIPAA Safe Harbor and allow for re-identification if required. It uses InterSystems’ SDA canonical format which is utilized for all our standard transformation from one format to another such as HL7 to CDA, HL7 to FHIR, etc.

Introducing a new component driver for Deltanji source control, which enables highly granular management of InterSystems Interoperability Productions with tight integration into the management portal

InterSystems Interoperability Productions are defined in a single monolithic class definition. A production can contain many hundreds or thousands of configuration items. This presents a problem if multiple developers are working on different Business Processes within the same production simultaneously. Simultaneous development is almost inevitable for large productions containing many configuration items. 

Happy #VSummit21 week!!

CCR users should check out the following Virtual Summit '21 session by @Jean Millette:

Nice work Jean!!

InterSystems is pleased to announce the 2022.3 release of InterSystems IRIS Data Platform, InterSystems IRIS for Health, HealthShare Health Connect, and InterSystems IRIS Studio are now Generally Available (GA).

2022.3 is a Continuous Delivery (CD) release. Many updates and enhancements have been added in 2022.3, in SQL management, cloud integration, Kafka and JMS adapters, the SQL Loader, and other areas. The new FHIR SQL Builder and enhancements to Columnar Storage are included, but both are still experimental features (not for production, with an active Early Access Program in place).

The extended maintenance releases of InterSystems IRIS, InterSystems IRIS for Health, and HealthShare Health Connect 2023.1.1 are now available. This release provides bug fixes for the previous 2023.1.0 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.

Earlier this year, we launched a beta program for the new CCR Angular UI.  As almost all of the known issues and gaps have been addressed, we are getting ready to launch the new angular UI for all users. 

Anyone using CCR is strongly encouraged to enable the beta flag on their account and confirm that the new pages work as required in order to prevent surprises at cut-over time.  At this point, cut-over will tentatively be late-November.

Please check it out and provide feedback (good or bad) on your experiences!

Look forward to the first Dutch HealthShare user group next Friday in Groningen. We have great topics to discuss with some Dutch HealthShare users:

• Using the InterSystems FHIR Interoperability Adapter.
