HL7 Profile Validator Filter
You can require HL7 messages to conform to message profiles, also known as conformance profiles. A message profile defines constraints for an HL7 message which go beyond the HL7 specification, and are useful to customize HL7 messages for specific applications, institutions, and regions.
The HL7 Profile Validator Filter validates an HL7 message in accordance to the user-specified HL7 message profile. If the message does not conform to the specified profile, Mule throws an exception.
| This filter is part of the Mule Healthcare Toolkit, which includes transformers, components and endpoints for receiving, processing and sending HL7 messages. For details and a full list of available tools, consult the Toolkit’s documentation main page. |
