Mirth Connect and Healthcare Interoperability: Integration with HL7, FHIR, and Other Standards

One of the biggest challenges in healthcare is interoperability between different systems. Mirth Connect facilitates this process by supporting multiple data exchange standards such as HL7, FHIR, DICOM, XML, and JSON.


  • HL7: A protocol used for clinical information exchange.
  • FHIR: An emerging standard that facilitates data interoperability in modern applications.
  • DICOM: Primarily used for the transmission of medical images.
  • JSON/XML: Flexible formats that allow hierarchical data structuring.

By using Mirth Connect, hospitals and clinics can ensure their systems communicate efficiently, regardless of the protocol or standard used.
