Meddius brings routing functions to HIMSS10

The Meddius Integration Router, developed by Meddius, aims to provide data transformation, communication and routing functions between clinical applications. Its core engine provides transport mediation and message transformation between disparate formats, including HL7 v2.x and v3.x, X12, EDI, DICOM, XML, binary and legacy formats. By using integration appliances, hospitals can integrate data previously residing in separate applications without a costly investment in a new software infrastructure. For vendors, incorporating an integration appliance into their healthcare solution can help streamline integration efforts and eliminate costly deployment delays.
