Integrated Solutions (HL7)

Hospital systems typically employ multiple computer systems to manage patient health information from admission and discharge information through orders and billing. In order to increase the availability of patient information for care providers, these disparate systems need to communicate with each other to exchange data.

WoundExpert is the wound care and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) integration leader, successfully implementing and maintaining more than 110 interfaces at present. We utilize the universally accepted Health Level Seven (HL7) standard for most communications with hospital information systems, from enterprise-level to homegrown hospital systems. There isn’t a vendor enterprise-level to homegrown hospital system we have not been able to successfully integrate with WoundExpert.

Here is a sample list of vendors we have interfaced with recently:

Meditech Magic
Meditech Client/Server
McKesson Star
McKesson Series
McKesson Horizon Patient Folder
Siemens Invision
Siemens Sorian
Eclipsys Sunrise Enterprise
Epic EpicCare
GE Carecast
Lastword
Cerner Millennium
MedPlus Chartmaxx
VistaKEANE
CGI Sovera
In-house, proprietary applications

Orders — sends ancillary services (i.e. lab, radiology, etc) orders to the clinical system and fulfilled order results returned from the clinical system are filed with the appropriate patient encounter.
Results — send clinical result data entered into WoundExpert to hospital electronic medical records systems for review by multiple care providers within the hospital system.
Scheduling — Used to communicate patient’s appointment from the hospital scheduling system to WoundExpert.
