C-DAC's Medical informatics SDK for HL7

C-DAC's Medical Informatics Software Development Kit (SDK) for ANSI/HL7 v2.8.2-2015 is an implementation of Health Level Seven International’s ANSI/HL7 v2.8.2-2015. The SDK is a Free and open-source software (FOSS) that facilitates the incorporation of ANSI/HL7 v2.8.2-2015 in healthcare applications.

The API library can also be used by medical device manufacturers to make their medical devices medical standards compliant.

C-DAC's Medical Informatics Software Development Kit is a suite of API libraries that provides medical standards compliance to the implementing applications/medical devices.

HL7 is an ANSI approved standard for information exchange between medical applications proposed and maintained by Health Level Seven International (www.hl7.org).
