About
HL7 is the accepted electronic messaging standard for communicating clinical
data. According to the United States Department of Health and Human Services, HL7
is supported by every major medical informatics system vendor in the US. The HL7
mission is to provide a comprehensive framework and related standards for the exchange,
integration, sharing, and retrieval of electronic health information that supports
clinical practice and the management, delivery and evaluation of health services.
HL7 is an accredited ANSI standard
organization that produces the HL7 messaging standard. To learn more about HL7,

Intellicure and HL7 interfacing
Intellicure is at the forefront of interface technology in the wound care
and hyperbaric industry, and has been successfully interfacing with hospitals since
2004. We have interfaced with numerous hospital EMRs including:
- McKesson
- Meditech
- Epic
- Cerner
- Dairyland
Intellicure is a voting member of the HL7 Organization and HL7 Certified in CDA (Clinical Document Architecture).
We are also a member of the Healthcare Information Technology Standards Panel (HITSP).
With a HL7 interface in place, your registration process will become seamless as
your hospital EMR automatically transfers over patient demographics into Intellicure.
Your staff will not have to worry about double entry (registering in the hospital
and wound care center), and they will spend less time entering patient registration
information. Below is a short list of what Intellicure can automatically 'fill in'
for you while you are charting on each patient:
- Name, Address, Phone Number(s), Age, Race, DOB, Social Security Number
- Medical
Record Number, Account Numbers, Admit and Discharge Dates
- Insurance Carriers,
Physicians List, Home Health Agencies, Pharmacies
Other HL7 Interface Capabilities
- Billing interface to automatically transfer ICD-9 and CPT codes back to the hospital,
using your chargemaster, taking
care of all billing tasks for you.
- Document interface to automatically send
all patient documentation back to the hospital's central medical records system,
making sure your hospital remains compliant.
- Automate every part of the patient's
visit from registration to discharge.
With HL7 interfacing, the capabilities are almost endless, depending on your hospital's
current HL7 specifications. Contact Intellicure to hear more about how HL7 Interfacing
can make your daily tasks automated, efficient, and in turn help lower your staff
overtime hours, allowing you to go home after normal business hours.
