PHC Hub
and IWeb Integration
IWeb is an application
that provides immunization resource management and administration tools
to track patient vaccination statuses. IWeb helps public health agencies
and vaccine providers make informed decisions that improve the health
of entire communities, especially children. IWeb
is used by public health officials, public health employees, and private
providers to enable:
- Vaccinators to view a child's complete vaccination
record, thus preventing over- and under-vaccination
- Health officials to measure and improve vaccination
rates by providing a "big picture" perspective through various
reports
- Health officials to send mailings and remind
parents of needed vaccinations
- School nurses to review student vaccination
records
PHC Hub is
directly integrated into IWeb
and provides a user interface, while IWeb
defines and manages the business logic. PHC Hub
manages the external HL7 interfaces and ensures that all incoming data
passes strict data quality checks before it's sent to IWeb
for processing. PHC Hub
has several functions that can help administrative users, such as:
- Electronic Health Records (EHR) vendor testing
tools to view and test HL7 messages
- A profile manager to allow configuration
on a per-interface basis
- A data mapping feature to map incoming codes
to the correct HL7 values
- A system that can be customized to watch
for specific data quality levels expected for each interface
- Processing and data quality reports and logs
to help in interface management and troubleshooting
