Subscription-Based Router Simplifies Medical Data Sharing

A new subscription-based device accelerates and simplifies medical information sharing among healthcare applications, from clinical repositories to financial transactions and disparate legacy formats without a costly investment in infrastructure.

The Meddius (Charlottesville, VA, USA) Integration Router reduces costs by 80% compared to conventional software-based alternatives, and requires no software to purchase, install, or maintain. For example, hospitals need laboratory, patient, and administrative systems to "talk” to each other to keep patients safe, clinical staff well informed, and administrators on top of business issues, such as inventory status and cost management. This appliance is easily incorporated into vendors' systems to streamline efforts and eliminate expensive deployment delays.

"The fast adoption is proof of healthcare market's need for more cost-effective, fast integration solutions,” said Jeff Gunther, Meddius' president. "The Integration Router's performance, scalability, ease of deployment, and attractive monthly subscription pricing provides unprecedented value to the healthcare market.”

Unlike anything currently in the marketplace, the router handles 5.5 million HL7 messages per hour via integration and high-performance routing in a single device. This highly scalable integration appliance enables hospitals and healthcare vendors to quickly add real-time, intelligent system-to-system message routing capabilities to their networks.

The Integration Router is preconfigured for each customer's unique environment for easy set-up and deployment. Multiple appliances can be configured within a cluster to provide high availability and reliability for mission-critical data and applications. The core engine transforms between disparate message formats, including HL7, X12, EDI, XML, and binary, and provides transport mediation.
