This section describes the inbound (data flow from the ADT system to Vocera) ADT interface
of the Vocera Care Team Sync product.
Inbound ADT Message Requirements
This section describes the segments and event types of an inbound message that are relevant to the CTS.
Vocera Data Requirements
This section describes the data elements that Vocera requires in the ADT data feed.
ADT Acknowledgement Message
Vocera sends acknowledgement messages to the sending system upon receipt of valid messages.
Initial Upload
Vocera does not require an initial upload of data. As records are received, Vocera will begin writing the appropriate records to the patient tables.
Configuration/Support
By default, Vocera assigns TCP/IP port 2575 to listen for connections from the sending EHR system. Vocera tests the system to ensure that HL7 ADT messages are received appropriately.
Segment Element Recommendation
This section presents a subset of segment elements (and sub-elements) that Vocera ADT interface engine will use if data is present. Refer to the HL7 Messaging Standard Version 2.7.1 from ANSI for specific details around HL7 message implementation guidelines including element definition as well as format.
