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 utilizing VistA to provide our customers with an EHR package.
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.

Notes:
*This module is in no way complete! It is still a work in progress. Having said that, it will at least work just fine. *There is a global variable (^CHECK) that should be removed. This is just for my debugging purposes. *I set up my own cross references and use those cross references as the key for my data.
This is how to set up a multi listener for the HL7 subsystem using linux and GT.M:
