A centralized computer system in the healthcare industry has certainly increased the productivity of hospitals and clinics everywhere. Sending and receiving valuable information about the patients between these facilities is done via an HL7 protocol, a standard that ensures the history of a patient is shared and processed in a uniform and consistent manner.

SmartHL7 Message Sender is a lightweight piece of software that enables you to upload data to another system that is capable of receiving HL7 data. Thanks to its easy to use and intuitive interface, you are going to be able to load and send your messages without too much hassle. The tool can also help implement MLLP, which is a compliant standard with HL7.

The idea behind the application is to display the messages' send status, the acknowledgment and response time is included. It provides the valuable stats along with the logs of sending and receiving data to a file that you can process later on.

It is important to note that the program comes with a limitation. According to the developer, the sending information port is limited to a specific range, namely 1024-65535. While it may appear troublesome in some cases, the idea for this limitation is to discourage the ports range 0 to 1023 from being used for HL7 communications.
