Healthcare Data Transfer

Hospitals have several systems that need to communicate to each other. The registration system needs to interface admission, discharge, and transfer information to the ed, billing, lab, pharmacy, transcription, radiology, and abstracting system. The lab and radiology systems need to send results to the clinical data repository(s). In order to ensure the results are correct, they also have to interface orders to and from the registration system. The abstracting system needs to interface diagnosis, procedure, and sparcs information to the billing system. Normally, all of these happen around the clock, real-time in HL7 format through an interface engine.

The interface engine is the generator of information for the healthcare infrastructure. When everything is working great, no body even thinks about it. When everything is not working, it?s the topic of the town.
