HL7 interoperability

HL7 LIS INTEGRATION

Connect your laboratory to EMRs, EHRs, reference labs, and billing systems with built-in HL7 ORM/ORU messaging and FHIR-ready APIs. LIMS IQ handles the interface layer so your team focuses on testing, not file transfers.

HL7 v2.x ORM / ORU FHIR-Ready APIs Bidirectional Exchange Reference Lab Support
Automated orders Receive ORM messages from connected EMRs and automatically create accession records without manual entry.
Results delivery Transmit ORU results back to ordering providers in real time upon finalization.
Reference lab loops Send referrals to LabCorp, Quest, or partner labs and receive results back into the same patient record.
HL7 interface activity
Live bidirectional data exchange

Orders flowing in, results flowing out — automatically, with full audit visibility.

Zero manual rekeying
Orders arrive as accession records

Inbound HL7 ORM messages automatically create accessioning records with demographics, ordering provider, insurance, and test codes mapped to your test catalog.

Closed-loop results
Results go back automatically

When a result is finalized in LIMS IQ, an ORU message is generated and transmitted to the originating EMR or provider system without any manual steps.

Key Capabilities

Home-page-standard feature cards for this module. Reuse this treatment on future pages instead of creating a new card style.

01

HL7 v2.x Messaging

Support for ORM (orders), ORU (results), ADT (demographics), and DFT (billing) message types with configurable field mapping.

02

FHIR-Ready APIs

Modern REST-based FHIR endpoints for EMRs and health applications that require standards-based data exchange beyond HL7 v2.

03

Epic & Cerner Integration

Pre-built interface templates for Epic, Cerner, Allscripts, Practice Fusion, and other major EMR platforms to reduce integration time.

04

Reference Lab Workflows

Send referral orders to LabCorp, Quest, and specialty partner labs, then automatically receive results back into the originating patient record.

05

Billing Data Feeds

Transmit demographics, insurance details, ICD-10, and CPT codes to revenue cycle and billing systems at accessioning.

06

Real-Time Eligibility

Integrate with insurance clearinghouses to verify patient coverage before testing and reduce claim denials downstream.

07

Interface Monitoring

Built-in dashboard showing message queues, delivery status, error counts, and transaction history for all active interfaces.

08

Audit and Compliance

Every inbound and outbound HL7 transaction is logged with timestamps, message content, and delivery confirmation for regulatory and troubleshooting purposes.
