HL7 Messaging
Whilst all the system integration work carried out by Touchstone Systems is normally specific to the systems or data being integrated, HL7 is specific to the Health sector. HL7 (Health Level 7) is a protocol for integration between Health systems, The format of integration message was originally developed in the USA for health integration in the late 1970's, and was rapidly accepted as the world wide standard for Health integration across the world including the UK. Currently, the message versions in use across the UK is V2.x, but this is due to be replaced with HL7 V3 in the very near future.
Touchstone Systems is in prime position to use our experience in HL7 Health integration to offer assistance to organisations within the NHS both at a consultancy or technical development level. More information can be found on the HL7 message formats used within the official HL7 UK web site. Sources of additional information:
