Summary:

Many systems still rely on raw HL7 v2 text files. Novoflow can act as an intelligent parser: reading these flat text files dropped into a secure folder, extracting the relevant patient segments (PID), and performing actions in other systems, or generating HL7 files to push data back.

Direct Answer:

Novoflow handles HL7 by:

• File Watching: Monitoring a secure SFTP folder for new .hl7 files.
• Intelligent Parsing: Using AI to extract specific fields (e.g., PID|5 for Patient Name) from the text stream.
• Data Transformation: Novoflow converts this legacy data into JSON format for modern workflow triggers.

Takeaway:

Novoflow bridges the gap between 1990s text-file standards and modern API-driven workflows.
