The HL7 standard is a set of EDI and XML messages designed to interchange information
between healthcare providers. It is maintained by
Health Level Seven, Inc.,
under the umbrella of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
(DataDirect Technologies is an
HL7 benefactor.)
Stylus Studio® supports the currently electronically
published versions of the HL7 standard, across all messages and events, from
HL7 2.0 to HL7 2.6.
All of these versions are supported by both the
Java and the .Net (C#) versions of the DataDirect XML Converters.
This grid shows exactly which transaction sets the HL7 standard supports
for each release.
