Converting HL7 2.x to 3.x Tutorial
HL7 versions 2.x and 3.x use different information models. HL7 2.x is EDI-based, 3.x is XML-based, and the concepts are different. This example shows how to go from one to the other, using DataDirect XQuery® and DataDirect XML Converters for HL7.

Converting Between X12 & XML Tutorial
XML Converters are able to handle X12 and many other EDI dialects easily, managing and converting X12 transaction sets, segments, elements, and code lists to XML. XML Converters use their embedded X12 dictionary for helping you create syntactically pure and semantically accurate X12, converting to/from XML or diagnosing problems with incoming and outgoing X12 data.

HL7 Standards
In order for health care providers to share information, the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) has under its aegis a standards body called HL7 to promote a standard of electronic communications. This standard and its body have both become known as HL7. The DataDirect XML Converters include a robust implementation of the HL7 standard.
