HL7 Tutorial Part Three: HL7 Message Types

HL7 Message Types determine the use and applicability of an HL7 message when interfacing between systems. In this tutorial we will cover the MSH-9 with its components, and examine how to find the definitions of these. This included how to interpret the HL7 Event Type from the MSH-9.2 and how to use the MSH-9.3 in message. We look at how you can use HL7 Soup to obtain the desired Message Structure for your message type and get a definition of each message segment. This includes a list of which HL7 Segments are available for the current HL7 Message Type. There is also a brief description of the ADT HL7 Message Type, and we show how to find all the HL7 Message Types available. The full transcript for this video is available on the HL7 Soup website http://www.hl7soup.com/HL7TutorialHL7...
