hl7
What is a .hl7 file?
application/hl7-v2+er7
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 a .hl7 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.
