HL7 v2 ADT^A01 Admission Message
An HL7 v2.5 ADT^A01 patient-admission message — pipe/caret-delimited segments (MSH, EVN, PID, PV1, allergies, diagnosis). A fixture for testing healthcare integration engines and HL7 parsers. The patient is fictional.

What is a .hl7 file?
HL7 v2 is the dominant messaging standard for exchanging clinical and administrative data between healthcare systems. A message is plain text made of segments (one per line, e.g. MSH, PID, PV1), each split into fields by pipe (|) delimiters, with components separated by carets (^). It drives admissions, lab orders, and results across hospitals.
How to use this file
Use an example HL7 v2 message to test healthcare integration engines, HL7 parsers, and segment/field extraction, or to exercise mapping from HL7 to FHIR or other formats. The data here is synthetic — not a real patient.
