Mirth Project Website

When you write HL7 interfaces there is a lot of mapping and a lot of customization needed to bring two system together. Mirth is an enterprise solution which uses both drag and drop mapping and a standard language Javascript. I rate it higher than many of the most used commercial solutions.

It is open source and hence I can use it without licensing costs to integrate the open source PatientOS EMR with other systems.

For example I recently helped a student map data values from sensor to be picked up by Mirth, mapped to the PatientOS xml structure, queued, processed and stored for viewing on the flowsheet and in the Patient Portal.

Mirth rocks.
