HL7 ADT/SIU Message Specifications
Click here to access Prime Clinical Systems, Inc.'s ADT/SIU/MFN Message specifications (updated 01/2021).
PCS can place the Messages in a file in the Home\Staff\HL7 folder on the server for clinics to pick up. Regarding DFT messages, clinics can drop the files for us to process in the Home\Staff\Import folder on the server.
The ADT/SIU/MFN Message specification document also includes the specifications PCS expects for the Financial Billing Messages (DFT). The sequence for each segment starts from zero. Seq in brackets [ ] means this is the default seq and, by using the IMPORT_HL7 table, user 9 can set the system to read this data from a different seq in that segment.
Updates:
Effective version 21.03.02: HL7 DFT Changes - ACK
When a DFT message is received into Intellect, part of the DFT is the MSH and with the MSH (10) there is a message control ID that is used by the Vendor to identify the message. In the example below, MSH-10 has the value of ‘5.’ When the ACK is sent back to the vendor, PCS now includes the message control ID as seen in the MSA|AA|5|
MSH|^~\&|PYXISCC|MUA1005|EPIC|MUA1005|20210226154136||ACK^R01|5|T|2.3|||||||
MSA|AA|5|
Effective version 21.01.06, Intellect includes an integrated function to send ADT/SIU messages to outside vendors. This option requires set up. Users should contact support@primeclinical.com to schedule their update.
Effective version 18.06.22: DFT --►PID Segment - Patient Information
In versions prior to version 18.06.22, when Intellect received the HL7 information and if the account did not exist or the account number was null or zero, Intellect did a search on the PA_LAST_NAME, PA_FIRST_NAME, DOB, and SSN and if no match was found, the program added the patient into the system.
In addition to completing the procedure described above, if the information in the HL7 includes a ‘Suffix’ and the program adds the patient, the suffix is also added.
Effective version 18.06.26: Charge Import: DFT --►>GT1 - Guarantor
It was found in versions 18.06.14 and 18.06.22, that when DFT was being imported, the program added a ‘new patient’ and updated the patient Guarantor because the system was not able to find the patient that was sent in GT1. As of this update, the problem has been corrected.
