 2 ways around this would be to have the ADT people
send a 1 month back log from the ADT if available or
the could use the always add function. The always
add function is not as reliable and will generate
admits that may never be discharged.

Interfacing analyzers to the system

Looked for updates to this Guide in SharePoint
Interfacing ADT / Orders and Results
RALS-Freedom_HL7_Interface_Specification_En-US
Process Details
Interfacing
Tools for interfacing ADT / Orders and Results
HL7 Analyst – Free, fast, easy
7Edit – Robust functionality, error checking, send
and receive data.
HisEmula – Allows you to send ADT data into the
system for testing and receive results
from your system for troubleshooting.
Process Details
Interfacing
Tools for interfacing ADT / Orders and Results
Order in testing – Good for sending custom ADT
messages into the system and receiving
result transmissions.
SQL server scripts for testing
1. Active visits going to meters by facility
2. Active visits going to meters by patient class
3. Breakdown of all analyzers in the system
Process Details
Interfacing
Testing procedures can vary greatly depending on what
analyzers you are working with and/or what interfaces
you are working with. If you are working with a
relativity new analyzer that has not been connected
before you will need to depend heavily on the POCC to
confirm, in writing, that everything they expect to
receive from the analyzer is received during the system
quality check phase of the project.
Process Details
Testing
HIS/LIS systems can vary greatly as well. Just because
you have worked with a Cerner interface 5 times before
that does not mean you should assume the 6th one you
are working with will be set up the same as the last 5.
This is why it is critical that the hospital and/or the LIS
interface analyst author and step through their testing
scenario to confirm everything is processing correctly.
Alere should be vigilant in making changes when
requested but should never be the one doing the bulk
of the testing or assembling testing scenarios.
Process Details
Testing
Testing analyzers
Make sure the analyzer can send all required run
types that are outlined in the interface support
guide then confirm from the POCC that all run types
expected are coming into the system and posting
correctly. Example, istat and the EQC runs.
Overall you will have to read about the
functionality of the analyzer in question in the
interface guide to determine exactly what needs to
be tested.
Process Details
Testing
Testing ADT/Results interface
Again the bulk of the testing needs to be done
through the hospitals POCC and the LIS analyst to
determine if there is an unexpected error in their
workflow or to determine what needs to be changed
to cause a result to post. We can only mimic their ADT
and Results interface according to the ISW that was
sent to us. If it is created to ISW specifications and still not
posting or if there is an error in workflow, they will need
to determine the issue and form a resolution.
Process Details
Go-Live
 All resources should be available to respond on this
day.
 Issues to watch out for include but are not limited to
1. Invalid patient errors
Occurs because the patient information was not sent
to the meter for validation. Look to the ADT log to
confirm the patient was sent into the system with an
admit, the confirm routing table is set up correctly.
Process Details
Go-Live
2. Invalid operator errors uncertified operator errors
Occurs when the operator in question has not
been pushed to the meter. This could be
because the operator is not in the system, the
operator is not certified in the system,
communication problems are happening with
the meter when trying to communicate with the
software or operator list is not being pushed to
the meter.
Process Details
Go-Live
3. Results not passing to LIS
If the POCCs are not seeing their results pass to the
LIS you will have to look in the software to determine
the exact issue. Please consult the Run Anomaly list
for further details.

  • 97. Testing procedures can vary greatly depending on what analyzers you are working with and/or what interfaces you are working with. If you are working with a relativity new analyzer that has not been connected before you will need to depend heavily on the POCC to confirm, in writing, that everything they expect to receive from the analyzer is received during the system quality check phase of the project.

  • 98. HIS/LIS systems can vary greatly as well. Just because you have worked with a Cerner interface 5 times before that does not mean you should assume the 6th one you are working with will be set up the same as the last 5. This is why it is critical that the hospital and/or the LIS interface analyst author and step through their testing scenario to confirm everything is processing correctly. Alere should be vigilant in making changes when requested but should never be the one doing the bulk of the testing or assembling testing scenarios. Process Details Testing
  • 99. Testing analyzers Make sure the analyzer can send all required run types that are outlined in the interface support guide then confirm from the POCC that all run types expected are coming into the system and posting correctly. Example, istat and the EQC runs. Overall you will have to read about the functionality of the analyzer in question in the interface guide to determine exactly what needs to be tested.

  • 100. Testing ADT/Results interface Again the bulk of the testing needs to be done through the hospitals POCC and the LIS analyst to determine if there is an unexpected error in their workflow or to determine what needs to be changed to cause a result to post. We can only mimic their ADT and Results interface according to the ISW that was sent to us. If it is created to ISW specifications and still not posting or if there is an error in workflow, they will need to determine the issue and form a resolution. Process Details Go-Live
  • 101.  All resources should be available to respond on this day.  Issues to watch out for include but are not limited to 1. Invalid patient errors Occurs because the patient information was not sent to the meter for validation. Look to the ADT log to confirm the patient was sent into the system with an admit, the confirm routing table is set up correctly. Process Details Go-Live
  • 102. 2. Invalid operator errors uncertified operator errors Occurs when the operator in question has not been pushed to the meter. This could be because the operator is not in the system, the operator is not certified in the system, communication problems are happening with the meter when trying to communicate with the software or operator list is not being pushed to the meter.

  • 103. 3. Results not passing to LIS If the POCCs are not seeing their results pass to the LIS you will have to look in the software to determine the exact issue. Please consult the Run Anomaly list for further details. Process Details Go-Live
