Pathway HL7 Interface Engines
 

Why an HL7 Interface Engine?

Almost all health care institutions and EMR vendors use a different dialect of HL7, so it's important that your HL7 solution has the ability to transform incoming orders or outgoing results messages. By using our Pathway HL7 Interface Engine, a laboratory can drastically reduce its overall interface costs by eliminating the need for the HIS or EMR vendors to modify their default orders or results receiving interface.

See the data flow of our Pathway HL7 Interface.

  Database Access:

Our Pathway HL7 interface engine allows the transfer of data between PowerPath® and other health care information systems as well as other major databases, including Sybase, Oracle, MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server and Microsoft Access.

ADT and Orders Interface:

With our Pathway HL7 interface engine, you only need one PowerPath® ADT/Orders Interface. We can translate data from multiple HL7 streams concurrently, with multiple HL7 dialects, and translate them according to the PowerPath® ADT and Orders Interface specification in real time.

Results Interface:

Our Pathway HL7 interface engine can take the PowerPath® Results Interface output and translate it into multiple HL7 dialects, then deliver the result message to the appropriate health care system. We can also deliver the same report with or without modification, to multiple locations. The doctor can now view the reports in the EMR program at the office as well as a results viewer from any computer with internet access.

Full Color Reports:

If supported by the sending HIS or EMR system, our Pathway HL7 interface engine allows the embedding of a full color PDF version of the anatomical pathology report in the text-based result message. Click here to see a screen shot.
