LINKMED® TCP/IP HL7 Communication Drivers (Plug&Play)

The LINKMED® HL7 TCP/IP Communication Drivers communicate with remote system through TCP/IP socket connections, the TCP/IP drivers, also can send and receive information in virtually any formats over any protocols, effectively bridging other systems with the LINKMED® Interface environment.

Thee are two types of LINKMED® HL7 TCP/IP Receivers:



HL7 TCP/IP Receiver (File)



HL7 TCP/IP Receiver (Mapper)


HL7 TCP/IP Transmitter

  1. File-based Receiver: The Receiver receiving stream HL7 message from client, coverts HL7 message to file then sends HL7 ACK to client
  2. Mapper-based Receiver: The receiver receiving HL7 message from client, processes the HL7 message then sends HL7 ACK back to client

Features:

  • Sends and receives HL7 messages via HL7's Minimal Lower Layer Protocol (MLLP) over TCP/IP.
  • Supports non-standard, custom and user-defined headers and trailers.
  • HL7 Messages can be filtered by sending facilities, message types or by any of HL7 segment's fields.
  • Listens or sends on any port number, LAN, VPN.
  • Error log and detail log file for interface trouble shooting,
  • Accepts all HL7 message types and automatically validates and sends standard HL7 message acknowledgements back to client(s)
  • Accepts multiple connections on the same port and route messages to user-defined destinations
  • Accepts HL7 query messages and sends HL7 query response messages.
  • Can be configured for application level message validation.
  • Built-in firewall allows the receiver to accept message from allowed IP address only (up to 50 IP addresses).
  • Can be configured to receive and send non-HL7 message sends via TCP/IP user-defined protocols such as XML documents, Words documents, PDF documents, etc.
  • Reads, Writes and filters HL7messages to SQL database or LINKMED® internal intermediate database.
  • Runs unobstructively as service.

Benefits:

  • Seventh generation software with proven track records of sucess, virtually trouble free.
  • Plug & Play communication drivers. No development work, save time and resource of your organization by eliminate the need to do programming.
  • The LINKMED® HL7 TCP/IP drivers are approximately 500 KB each. This makes them easy to download and install from a remote location..
  • These HL7 TCP/IP drivers are efficient and less resource intensive
  • No Programming needed.
  • Users can print out activity and error logs for easier analysis of interface activity. They can also print copies of the incoming (for the Receiver) and outbound (for the Transmitter) data files. The modular design of LINKMED® is evident in the TCP/IP drivers. They can be configured to run with other LINKMED® modules or with almost any parsing/insertion routine developed by the end-user.
  • LINK Medical Computing, Inc also offers a library of specially developed tools that complement and enhance the functionality of the LINKMED® TCP/IP Drivers.


    4What our customer says:


"The Receiver tool in conjunction with our merge process is working great. As an example, it roughly takes 2 seconds from the point a registration event triggers an A04 or A08 to the point when the information is available in our database. Now that's cool! The NT client running the Receiver tool has been up and running since November without needing a reboot...can't get more stable than that. We are very happy with the results so far and have already proposed the same setup for another hospital that we are in negotiations with."
