The HL7+ Postmaster

 

 

What is the HL7+ Postmaster? A good question that's hard to answer. An early adopter of the HermeTech HL7 Postmaster software summed it up best (we think) when he told us:

"This is the greatest HL7 program that I never knew I absolutely needed!"

Maybe the best way is to put forth some questions and let you answer them.

•Do you need to expand a single HL7+ TCP/IP Listener to handle many, many inbound clients without having to upgrade and purchase additional inbound ports for your HL7+ Subscription? You can do this with a Postmaster!

•Did you ever wish that your clients could just send you HL7 messages securely over the internet directly to your web-service? Or the reverse, did you ever just wish that your client's HL7 interface could just pick up HL7 messages from your web service? You can do this with a Postmaster!

•Do your clients send you too many HL7 messages? What about the reverse? Does your HL7 solution produce more HL7 messages than your trading partner wants? Don't have the time, resources, etc. to make adhoc changes to your solution? You can filter out unwanted HL7 messages with a Postmaster.

•Do you need to 'split' 1 HL7 feed into many and send multiple copies of the same message to more than 1 recipient. Like 1 to the EMR and 1 to the Data Warehouse and 1 to a piece of Medical Equipment (but only if it meets certain criteria)? What about the reverse? Do you need to consolidate several inbound HL7 feeds into 1 outbound feed? Easy to do with a HL7+ Postmaster.

•Do you ever need to 'pre-process' HL7 messages before they come in or go out, or even anonymize HL7 messages to remove HIPAA sensitive data? You can transform HL7 messages with a HL7+ Postmaster.

Easy to Configure right from your HL7+ Client Console.

Can be run 2 ways!

1.Run as a MS Windows system service* (no logon required) so it can be set to start automatically when the machine boots.

2.Run as a windows desktop application (great for troubleshooting) with a handy runtime window so you can watch your HL7 messages stream in/out.

Expandable. Can be configured to use any HL7 2.x version and even customized.

Need to stream HL7 messages into your Postmaster over TCP/IP? Just add a HL7+ Listener port to your installation and you're ready to go!

Need to transmit HL7 messages from your Postmaster over TCP/IP? Just add a HL7+ Router port to your installation and you're ready to go!
