Pathology Messaging - FHIR

Overview

 

Use this integration to share pathology results from a Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) to the requestor, typically a healthcare worker in NHS primary or secondary care.

Initially it focuses on haematology and clinical biochemistry test reporting - also known as chemical pathology.

This integration uses MESH to send and receive pathology results.

It is intended to replace the current Pathology Messaging - EDIFACT API and supersedes Laboratory HL7 V3 (see the Message Implementation Manual under Domains -> Health and Clinical Management -> Laboratory).
