IRIS supports CCDA and FHIR transformations out-of-the-box, yet the ability to access and view those features requires considerable setup time and product knowledge. The IRIS Interop DevTools application was designed to bridge that gap, allowing implementers to immediately jump in and view the built-in transformation capabilities of the product. 

In addition to the IRIS XML, XPath, and CCDA Transformation environment, the Interop DevTools package now provides:

  • FHIR-SDA Transformation setup
  • SDA-FHIR Transformation setup
  • Bubbling up of FHIR validation errors
  • Loading of required context fo

Profiling CCD Documents with LEAD North’s CCD Data Profiler
Ever opened a CCD and been greeted by a wall of tangled XML? You’re not alone. Despite being a core format for clinical data exchange, CCD's are notoriously dense, verbose, and unfriendly to the human eye. For developers and analysts trying to validate their structure or extract meaningful insights, navigating these documents can feel more like archaeology than engineering.

I am struggling on how to pull out individual fields from a JSON. In a previous post someone had mentioned that I could...

If ((tHttpResponseIsObject) && ($ZCONVERT(tHttpResponseContentType,"L") [ "application/json"))

    set pResponse = ##class(osuwmc.COM.Response.StringResponse).%New()

We have a scenario where we use the best practice article of a BP and DTL to split up HL7 messages mainly ORUS 

https://community.intersystems.com/post/splitting-oru-messages-using-ob…

It is really useful but we have this code in many places that we are trying to consolidate it in one place. 

We do not want to split it at the first stage in our rules as there is a lot of messages that go to sink. So we are trying for specific rules and the incoming hl7 matches certain rules and classified for certain downstream systems that it is then split and transformed. 

The problem

Question Lee Butcher · May 19, 2025

As part of a process to generate FHIR XML bundles from HL7 messages, I have a subtransform transforming segments of an MDM_T02 message into a section of XML (EnsLib.EDI.XML.Document). So far this has worked well although I've encountered strange behaviour when making use of an xmlns attribute, whereby the attribute's name is duplicated despite the schema and DTL editor displaying it correctly.

Here's a snippet of the div.xmlns definition from the XSD schema used

Has anyone else encountered this? Any help is much appreciated

In the previous article we have reviewed how to install our EMPI in standalone, so we are ready to start the basic configuration of our EMPI.

First of all we have to do an initial basic configuration, we can access to the configuration from the Configuration menu of our Registry.

Selecting that option will allow to us to edit the basic configuration table of the Registry:

In this menu we have to add the following parameters and update the value of one of them:

Reviewing the different articles that I have published, I realized that I needed to explain a very practical functionality within our EMPI (Enterprise Master Patient Index) and it is none other than the notification of registrations and links to systems external to the EMPI.

This functionality is frankly useful in a tool such as EMPI and especially in environments such as healthcare in which it is very common for the same patient to have their data duplicated in different systems and in the end it is necessary to uniquely identify it. The solution to reduce this amalgamation of records is to

Epic had changed some of their logic on their Incoming Radiology Results which now require an Ordering Provider even though it is supposed to account for it within the Epic Interface settings.

I was wondering if we are using a custom schema if there was a way to default a value into OBR:16 if it was not valued without having to modify all the DTL's for these Results.

Is there a way to set this via the schema editor or in the background so we don't have to create/update DTL's or create a custom TCP Operation Class??

I recently had to refresh my knowledge of the HealthShare EMPI module and since I've been tinkering with IRIS's vector storage and search functionalities for a while I just had to add 1 + 1.

For those of you who are not familiar with EMPI functionality here's a little introduction:

Enterprise Master Patient Index

In general, all EMPIs work in a very similar way, ingesting information, normalizing it and comparing it with the data already present in their system. Well, in the case of HealthShare's EMPI, this process is known as NICE:

I am struggling with returning a SQL Query Result that may have multiple rows that can be searched.

set query = "SELECT Facility FROM FROM osuwmc_EnterpriseDirDB.RelationshipMedCtrID WHERE OSUmedcenterID = ?"SET rset = ##class(%SQL.Statement).%New()
 SET qStatus = rset.%Prepare(query)
 SET rset = rset.%Execute($Get(ID))
 do rset.%Display()

I need to take the values that are returned and say search them for a single value. How would I go about returning the EnsLib.SQL.Snapshot into a Array or List for it to be searchable.

Can this be done internally within the DTL, so I don't have to

Question Martin Browne · Apr 24, 2025

Hi,

We're having an issue with some messages being sent to a downstream system from Healthshare.  Part of the free text in the NTE segment is displaying with special characters on the system front-end but is not present in the HL7 message that we send to them.  We are guessing that this is a result of some of the text being copied and pasted from something like MS Word. The '?' on their system is just representing an invalid character. 

Is anyone aware of a way to prevent this occurring? We are sending the messages using the 'cp1252' encoding.

Question Gary M Lusso · Apr 18, 2025

I need a DTL to handle this.

Any ideas appreciated.

For all Prosthetics orders:
when ORC-1(Order Control) is "NW" (New Order), need to update OBR-18(Placer Field 1) based on PV1-2 (Patient Class) value.
assumption is that the selection logic is that all prosthetics orders with OBR-18 field is always blank.
Description :
If PV1-2 is I, insert I in OBR-18
If PV1-2 is O, insert O in OBR-18
If PV1-2 is E, insert O in OBR-18
If PV1-2 is P, insert O in OBR-18
If PV1-2 is R, insert O in OBR-18
If PV1-2 is B, insert O in OBR-18

I was wondering if someone could help me. In the past I have been able to call external Stored Procedures through a SQL Outbound Connection and have them return me the EnsLib.SQL.Snapshot to use within a BPL to extract data.

But this time instead of using a SQL Outbound BO to make the Stored Procedure call, I decided to create a Linked Stored Procedure through the %JDBC_Server to point to the Stored Procedure out on MS SQL.

However, I am struggling to get the code just right to return the Column value from the Linked Stored Procedure.
