I am a computer programmer with a company in Lafayette, Louisiana. We are a software vendor who concentrates mostly on our medical billing package. We are interested in using VistA to provide an EHR package to our customers.

Here are two routines I wrote file our patient demographics via the HL7 messaging subsystem through our billing system interface program. Most of the data validation is taken care of on my cobol side, so you will not see much of that done here. This is a very specific module for my application, but we should definitely be able to generalize it.

Note: this module is in no way complete! It is still a work in progress. Having said that, it *should* at least work just fine.
