Continuation Messages
Older systems, especially those on mainframe computers, may have limits on the size of files they can process. If the destination of the HL7 Outbound device is such a system, you can determine how to split HL7 messages and create continuation files on the device.
Select the Enable splitting option. This will enable the other options on the screen.
- You can split messages based on number of lines or file size. Select the splitting option you wish to use. If you choose to split by number of lines, enter the number of lines after which the HL7 message should be split. If you choose to split based on file size, enter the maximum size in KB.
- You can also include some segments in every continuation message:
- Select Include PID to include the entire patient identifier segment in every continuation message. This segment includes fields to specify patient-specific information such as age, ID, name, sex, and address.
- Select Include EVN to include the entire event segment in every continuation message. This segment contains information to identify the specific event to which the HL7 message refers, including admission, discharge, death (if applicable), and reason (doctor's orders, patient request, etc.). Note that other segments may contain fields that are preferred to fields in the EVN segment. Consult your organization's HL7 message standards for guidance.
