This standard applies to the electronic exchange of data in all healthcare environments. In the context of healthcare messaging, it is primarily concerned with the data content of exchanges between healthcare applications, the sequence or interrelationships in the flow of messages, and the communication of significant application-level exceptions or error conditions. It addresses the following aspects of the communications environment that are common to all HL7 Version 3 messaging implementations: a specification for the composite HL7 Version 3 message, a protocol for reliable message delivery, generic ‘communication roles’ that support the modes of HL7 messaging, and message control events that describe a framework for generic HL7 messaging.
