HL7, FHIR, and Frends: Simple Healthcare Integration

With Frends iPaaS, hospitals and healthcare units can easily integrate healthcare systems that use the HL7 standard with systems using different message formats, such as XML or JSON. Frends' built-in JSON support enables easy conversions between HL7 and FHIR.

  • HL7 Support

HL7 is a widely-used messaging standard in healthcare systems and applications. Thesemessages are typically exchanged using protocols like MLLP, HLLP, HTTP(S), message queues, or file-based methods. Frends offers built-in support for all these transport protocols, ensuring smooth and reliable data exchange.

  • Support for both HL7 2.x and 3.x formats

Frends iPaaS fully supports HL7 2.x and 3.x formats. HL7 2.x is a flat-file format, and Frends provides a native parser to handle these messages efficiently. For HL7 3.x, which uses XML, Frends processes it just like any other XML format, offering native parsing capabilities for simple data integration.

  • FHIR Support

FHIR is the modern evolution of HL7, utilizing RESTful services and JSON structures for more flexible and efficient data handling. With Frends iPaaS' built-in JSON support, converting between HL7 and FHIR formats is straightforward, enabling easy integration between legacy and modern healthcare systems.
