Mirth Connect Integration Services
Build, repair and modernize the interfaces your healthcare product depends on. From HL7 feeds to FHIR APIs, we help you make Mirth Connect easier to change, test and operate.

Where we can help
Choose the problem to solve first. We’ll define the implementation and the handover around it.
Start with a channel inventory, dependency review and operational risk assessment. Find the changes that matter before committing to a rebuild.
Build and test interfaces between EHRs, laboratories and healthcare products. Define source data, mappings, acknowledgements and exception handling together.
Review your target release, licensing, Java runtime, database and extensions. Validate representative messages in staging before an agreed cutover.
Bring channel configuration into version control, introduce environment promotion checks and agree the monitoring, escalation and support your team needs.
Healthcare workflows, not just connections
Every interface needs a clear clinical purpose, a defined data contract and a plan for when a message cannot be delivered.
Route registration and encounter updates to the systems that need them. Account for identifiers, event ordering and duplicates.
Map orders and observations, preserve identifiers and units, and define acknowledgement and exception paths.
Map the agreed source messages to the FHIR resources and profiles your receiving application expects. Validate beyond JSON syntax.
Design scheduled or event-driven exchanges with explicit reconciliation, retries and access controls for your environment.
What you receive
Map your systems, message flows, access constraints and risks.
An agreed scope and acceptance criteria.Develop mappings and channels; test valid, invalid, duplicate and failed messages.
Test evidence against the agreed scenarios.Rehearse cutover, agree rollback and document day-to-day operations.
Versioned configuration and an operational runbook.Questions before you commit
We scope assessments, channel development, HL7 v2 and FHIR transformations, upgrade and migration planning, deployment automation, and ongoing support. The engagement defines the systems, interfaces, deliverables, acceptance criteria and responsibilities before implementation.
NextGen moved Mirth Connect to a commercial, proprietary licensing model with version 4.6. Earlier open-source releases and the commercial product have different upgrade and support considerations. We review your installed version and intended target release; licenses are arranged with the vendor and are separate from our engineering scope.
Yes. We review channels, connectors, extensions, custom libraries, database compatibility and runtime requirements against your target version. For example, NextGen’s 4.6 upgrade notes identify Java 17 as the minimum starting with 4.7. We plan testing, cutover and rollback around your actual environment rather than treating every upgrade as the same project.
An implementation can use Mirth channel logic and the appropriate connectors to transform source messages and call destination APIs. It needs explicit mappings, terminology and identifier handling, validation against the target FHIR profiles, and agreed error handling. A message conversion alone does not establish clinical completeness or interoperability.
We agree access, data-handling and contractual requirements before work begins. We prefer de-identified test messages and review credentials, transport protection, logging, retention and permissions within the integration scope. No integration engine or implementation alone makes an organization HIPAA compliant.
The number and complexity of interfaces, source-system access, mapping quality, custom transformations, environments, testing dependencies and support requirements all affect scope. After reviewing these inputs, we propose milestones and acceptance criteria rather than publishing a one-size-fits-all estimate.
Yes. The agreed handover can include channel exports, version-controlled configuration, mapping specifications, test evidence and operational runbooks. We establish ownership, deployment access and escalation responsibilities with your team.
