LINKMED® HL7 Order/Result Interface

The interface is triggered by the availability of HL7 Order messages from HIS Ordering System. HL7 Order messages are transmitted via TCP/IP Minimal Lower Protocols (MLLP) to LINKMED® Interface server. LINKMED® Interface receives processes or filters this data to its internal intermediate database and then inserts patient demographics to vendor system. Alternatively vendors system can import patient demographics using WebSelect client application or from file output to a shared folder directory.
Upon completion of study or review by the reading physician, the test results then output to LINKMED® interface for processing to HL7 result messages (ORU) and send back to the HIS or EMR systems.

Note: LINKMED® Order/Result Interface by default also accepts ADT update patient information (ADT^A08) and ADT merge patient information (see table below). ORU message can be customized
