EMA®HL7 Connections

An image showing interoperability via an HL7 connection.

Health Level Seven (HL7) is a data feed and a set of international standards that allow different healthcare organizations to communicate with each other and share information. This connection allows our technologies to communicate with third-party applications and organizations.

Using HL7, our EMA EHR and Practice Management system can share certain information with connected third parties.

For ModMed Practice Management customers this includes:

  • Demographics Outbound (ADT)
    Includes name, date of birth, gender, address, insurance info, etc.
  • Scheduling Outbound (SIU)
    We can send patient scheduling information to a connected third party.
  • Charges Inbound (DFT)
    Charges from a connected third party can be sent into our PM system.

For EMA EHR only customers, this includes:

  • Demographics Inbound (ADT)
    Includes name, date of birth, gender, address, insurance info, etc.
  • Scheduling Inbound (SIU)
    Third parties can send scheduling information to our EHR, EMA.
  • Charges Outbound (DFT)
    Charges from our EHR can be sent to a connected PM system.

Here are some other types of HL7 interfaces we support:

  • Outbound Visit Note (ORU – base64 encoded PDF of an EMA visit note)
    We can send a base64 PDF of the visit note to a connected third party when the note is finalized.
  • Inbound Document (ORU – base64 encoded PDF of an EMA visit note)
    Third-party documents can be sent to EMA, and they are added to the patient attachments section in EMA.
