HL7 Port
Port is configurable and can be any agreed upon port.
FYI - The default port in the configuration is 2019
HL7 required segments and fields
In general, PassagePoint requires the following:
1) The entire MSH segment is needed along with the facility (this is so if users need to partition facility, it can)
2) PID segment - Patients first/last name, MRN, Account, Visit number, l
3) PV1 segment - Location (unit, room, bed)
Beyond this is up to the end user's workflow requirements.
Other hospitals have added things like, DOB, sex, restrictions, special comments....etc.
