    HL7 Interface Engine

    Build Interfaces Faster and Easier With the Only HL7 Interface Engine With a “Self-Documenting” Assembly Line and the Only True Graphical Integrated Development Environment (IDE)

    • Build your HL7 interfaces with an Assembly Line process which:
      - Reduces complexity and eliminates variations between interfaces.
      - Eliminates all your dependencies on who built an interface.
      - Is "Self Documenting" and requires no separate documentation.
      - Facilitates rapidly configuring interfaces.
      - Enables 80% of interface development to be done by business analysts.
    • Benefit from virtually unlmited flexibility and extensibility with the only commercially supported product that lets you leverage open source components with an open API using Java or a .net Bridge.
    • The only graphical, drag & drop “Universal” Data Mapper with no coding required.
      - The only non-script driven HL7 interface engine.
      - Generates W3C compliant XSLT.
      - Handles any data mapping, no matter how complex.
    • The most HL7 productivity boosting features of any product.

    The eiConsole for Healthcare is the HL7 interface engine IDE where each interface is constructed from a common set of stages (including Listeners, Processors, Transformations, Routers and Transports). All components are graphically configured with no coding requirements. Need a component that is not included? Go out to the web and easily add in open source components using our Open API, or visit our PIE "App Store" for interfaces and download then directly into the eiConsole.

    Follow the "Assembly Line" to quickly configure an HL7 interface:

    The drag & drop Data Mapper – the heart of this HL7 Interface Engine IDE – an evolutionary leap from the cryptic script-driven and cumbersome line-drawing tools of the past

    While other HL7 interface engines offer an IDE for programming, only the eiConsole for Healthcare provides a true graphical IDE. It offers the world's only graphical, drag & drop, universal Data Mapper – user-friendly, yet powerful enough to accommodate ANY mapping, no matter how complex. The Data Mapper, included in the eiConsole for Healthcare, provides users with a codeless, script-less, standards-based mechanism to map data between any two data representations. The exclusive 3-pane mapping approach represents an evolutionary leap from the cryptic script-driven and cumbersome line-drawing approaches of the past. The three-pane user interface allows even the most complex mapping rules to be represented graphically and managed through drag & drop.

    The ieConsole for Healthcare is the only HL7 interface engine IDE to offer non-script driven transformations with all these associated benefits:

    • Eliminates the brittleness inherent with script-driven transformations.
    • Eliminates the maintenance difficulties of script-driven transformations.
    • Generates W3C compliant XSLT (a widely used universal standard) with no coding required.
    • Offers a "computationally complete" palette of XSLT Structures with functions and custom "macros" to speed the development of high quality transformations.
      • Any function or calculation that you can do with programming can be done in the Data Mapper without writing any code.
    • Read in HL7 version 2.x, 3.x and HL7 extended versions instantly without any time consuming handling or the need for processing.

    The eiConsole HL7 interface engine IDE provides support for any healthcare integration requirement:

    • Work with structured, semi-structured and binary/image data.
    • Produce and consume ANSI X.12 compliant EDI transactions.
    • Utilize full DICOM support.
    • Benefit from native XML support.
    • Create standards-based (XSLT) mappings that avoid vendor "lock-in".

    The Data Mapper is laden with HL7 features that boost productivity:

    • Automate mapping between slightly incompatible HL7 messages with the "HL7 Differencing Component".
    • Bind HL7 messages to or from human-readable XML by using the new "Friendly Name" option which replaces cryptic HL7 names with simple, understandable synonyms.
    • Configure interfaces faster with Inline Documentation and the ability to browse the HL7 vocabulary including codelists.
    • Work with all versions of HL7 2.x, 3.x, extended versions and even non-standards compliant HL7.
    • Import vendor-specific HL7 transaction samples for mapping.
    • Easily move application data into CCD and CCR templates.

    Outside the Data Mapper an HL7 transformation module, the Lenient HL7 Parser, offers “lenient parsing” of HL7 messages – allowing the eiConsole for Healthcare user to work with messages not strictly adherent to the HL7 standard. Organizations that have customized HL7 to suit their very specific requirements and produce non-standards compliant HL7, a very standard practice, can now easily communicate with all entities in the healthcare ecosystem.

    Flexibly manage communication channels with the HL7 Interface Engine IDE that offers it all:

    • Use any connectivity protocol(s) including TCP/IP, batch files, web services and databases (the most connectivity options of any interface engine.)
    • Intelligently route data between systems and/or organizations.
    • Filter data content based on the recipient.
    • Encrypt / decrypt sensitive data.

    Perform end-to-end testing and debugging directly from within the developer’s workstation

    After the assembly line has been configured and the transformations created, the end-to-end process can be tested, step-by-step, in the eiConsole's embedded “Test Mode”. This graphical unit and integration testing feature allows end-to-end testing and debugging directly from the developer’s workstation, with no extra hardware and no “wait time” for compilation and deployment.

    10 Easy Steps to Building an HL7 interface

    Leverage the PIE, "App Store" for Interfaces – a free marketplace to download, share and distribute interfaces

    Central to the flexibility and power of the eiConsole is its ability to generate configuration files. Sharing and distributing interfaces and interface components becomes effortless, and made easier still with the PilotFish Interface Exchange (PIE), an “App Store” for interfaces and components created with the eiConsole. With the PIE an interface need only be created once, then shared, published, licensed or distributed for all to benefit.

    Deploy your HL7 interfaces with a few mouse clicks

    When the eiConsole for Healthcare IDE is combined with the eiPlatform for Healthcare (EIP), HL7 interface engine, the developer has a complete Java framework for the high volume, secure, run-time processing of interfaces. Interfaces configured in the eiConsole for Healthcare can be deployed in minutes on the EIP. Learn more about the eiPlatform for Healthcare...

    The eiConsole for Healthcare is part of the PilotFish Interface Development Life Cycle (a complete system for building, maintaining, testing and deploying interfaces) along with the PIE, “App Store” for Interfaces, and the eiPlatform for Healthcare interface engine for runtime processing. Please call or contact us for a custom demo or free POC.
