[MEDITECH-L] XML imports into Meditech?

[Gary Hall]

O Great & Mighty L, our clinic uses Allscripts for the EHR. They can export the continuity of care record in an xml parsed format. Is anyone doing anything to import such data into Meditech? Scripting or what?

Particularly we have interest in importing medication information into the queries associated with the admission & discharge medication lists. Meditech, of course, has no xml imports designed at this time.

Thanks!

Gary:

We receive transcriptions from Medquist in an XML format (our design).
We script the transcriptions into departmental using Iatric System's
Scriptmate tool.

We use VB .Net to parse the XML files. The key commands we use in
VB .Net are from the xpath group of functions.

Of course our code would be pretty irrelevant to your files. However,
the above technique is a general principle for getting XML data into
Meditech.

It isn't an easy solution to implement unfortunately.
