HL7 Expertise
HL7 Communications Experts Linking Disparate Health Care Systems
Automating Registration without changing workflow or software
LifeMed ID is an industry leader in utilizing industry standard HL7 communications protocol to implement integrated automations with in healthcare’s patient registration systems.
LifeMed ID’s experts have linked most healthcare market’s Electronic Medical Records (EMR) and Admission/Discharge/Transfer (ADT) systems as well as other legacy Hospital Information Systems (HIS), Health Information Exchange (HIE), including clinic and physician group EMR/Practice Management Systems.
LifeMed ID links different and disparate vendor’s technology and, in many cases, links their clinic/physician networks. The common ground as dictated by the HITECH Act of 1997 is the HL7 communications protocol and all applications must be compliant. However, as with other standards not all HL7 is the same; they differ among EMR/ADT systems (in some cases even between versions of the software from the same supplier). This challenges even the most sophisticated information technology organizations.
Our team of experts can normally do in less than a few weeks, depending on requirement, what other EMR suppliers quoted our customers in four to six months, costing hundreds of thousands of dollars versus a fraction of that cost with LifeMed ID!
