)
Trigger Serves as the integration point between the application
workflow and Bridges
-generally an action in Hyperspace, like clicking a button or closing
an activity
-a single, clearly defined action that a user or process can take
that results in an interface message being created and sent
An interface message Data about an event (like a patient being admitted to the
contains.... hospital)
MSH-11 and MSH-12 are... the HL7 processing ID and version; Epic checks these values on
an incoming message and rejects the message if they do not
match the expected values
Segment Identifier Three character code that identifies what kind of data that
segment contains
PID-5 patient name
NTE segment can follow many different segments
Z-segment custom segment for a specific implementation
Is it necessary to send empty No
fields following the last valued
field?
,Within a field do you need to Only as many as are valued
send all components?
Blank fields... don't file anything
Delete character HL7 double quotes " "--- tells the receiving system to delete a
piece of info it has
FHIR specifies RESTful exchange method via HTTPs to access data
Other standards supported X12, FHIR, NCPDP, DICOM, and Direct
by Bridges
Event (in context of outgoing small set of values with the necessary info to build the message:
message flow) patient ID, patient contact, type of message, and additional info
-contains directions for where the interface should pull the
information it needs from the database
Queue storage location outside of Chronicles database structure
Event Queue is procesed by... the Event Daemon
Daemon (Outgoing process that runs in the background without any direct user
Message Flow) action
, pulls an event off the Event Queue, uses the information
in the event to build the message and finally deletes the
event from the event queue.
Event Daemon (Outgoing The event daemon puts the message it has built onto the data
Message Flow) queue and adds an instruction to the Control
Queue
builds an HL7 message based on data pulled from
Chronicles
Data Queue (Outgoing contains the full text of the message along with some additional
Message Flow) metadata (i.e. timestamp) about message processing
Control Queue (Outgoing a to-do list and contains very little data
Message Flow) -processed by the Communications Daemon
-maintains a list of messages waiting to be processed
Comm Deamon (Outgoing reads an instruction from the Control Queue and copies the
Message Flow) appropriate message off the Data Queue
-sends the message out of Epic and waits for an ACK to be
reutrned
-deletes instruction from the Control Queue and proceeds to the
next instruction
-sends or receives acknowledgments over a TCP/IP connection
