SOAP
December 16th, 2005 andrewIn the last week Medical-Objects has enabled a trial SOAP interface for communicating with Medical-Objects or 3rd party servers. While this interface is “New” it is a thin layer over an interface we have been using for several years.
the Wsdl is viewable at http://202.44.75.20:2000/SOAP/?wsdl
While we take the view that the actual messaging needs to be done in HL7, providing a SOAP interface, does enable an easy “first step” in setting up a connection. The set of interfaces provide for practice metadata and registration options as well as the actual transmission of data.
The Interface definition is open and is also implemented by our lightweight client “Capricon” that turns any broadband connection into a fully functional secure messaging portal in about 10 minutes. Capricorn is available under a beta trial program now.
