1 Introduction
Document
History
This document is the result of a project begun in 1997 by the Health Level
Seven (HL7) Conformance Special Interest Group (SIG). The HL7
Conformance SIG, in conjunction with the Andover Working Group (AWG),
prepared this specification based on the experience of vendors and healthcare
providers who have defined and implemented message profiles.
Scope
In its current form, this document is only a recommendation and should not be
considered an HL7 standard.
Purpose
This document is intended to:
Describe the HL7 V2.x Message Profile concept
Recommend a specification for defining specific message profiles of
HL7 V2.x messages
Facilitate HL7 V2.x interpretation by users familiar with the HL7
standard, reducing interface analysis time and dissatisfaction with the
HL7 V2.x standard.
Reader
Prerequisites
The reader should be familiar with the HL7 V2.x Standard and the HL7 V3.0
Message Development Framework (MDF).
Acknowledgements
The HL7 Conformance SIG would like to thank those involved in the creation of
this specification, especially the healthcare providers and vendors who have
implemented HL7 V2.x message profiles. Such experience has been vital in
creating a quality specification that provides the structure and flexibility to work
in our complex subject area.

2 HL7 V2.x Message Profiling
2.1
Overview
HL7
Compliance
HL7 V2.x is the most widely implemented health-related standard, domestically
and internationally.
It is impossible to measure the compliance of HL7 V2.x interfaces relying only
on the HL7 2.x base standard. Often vendors claim compliance to HL7 without
providing supporting documentation. HL7 V2.x provides little more than a
starting point for vendor negotiation, and terms like HL7-like or HL7-ish are
frequently used to describe HL7 interfaces. As a result, interfacing continues to
be slow, painful, and costly.
Message
Profiling
HL7 V2.x Message Profiling provides a guideline for documenting particular
uses of HL7 messages. A defined V2.x message profile will be registered with
HL7 and may be reused by other HL7 users, moving the HL7 V2.x standard
closer to “plug and play” interfaces.
With consistent and complete V2.x Message Profile documentation, HL7 V2.x
interface partners explicitly understand:

The format in which the data will be passed
The acknowledgement responsibilities of the sender and receiver.

2.2
What is an HL7 V2.x Message Profile?
Definition
An HL7 V2.x Message Profile is a precise and unambiguous specification of a
standard HL7 message that has been analyzed for use within a particular set of
requirements. It is a particular style or usage of a standard HL7 message, driven
by use case analysis and interaction modeling.
An HL7 V2.x Message Profile defines both the static structure and content of
the message and the dynamic interaction, which involves the communication of
the message from the sending application to one or more receiving applications.
Components
HL7 V2.x Message Profiles must consist of the following components:
Use Case Model - this may be a use case diagram supported with text or
just a textual description
Static Definition – consisting of Message Level Profile, Segment Level
Profile, and Field Level Profile
Dynamic Definition – consisting of an Interaction Model and Dynamic
Profile
HL7
Compliance
An HL7 V2.x Message Profile is compliant, in all aspects, with the HL7 defined
message it profiles, although it may specify constraints on the standard HL7
message definition.
Message Profile
Representation
An HL7 V2.x Message Profile should be expressed in tabular format. If XML is
used, profile creators must follow the informative XML document put forth by
the HL7 XML Special Interest Group.
In the Static Definition, for example, an HL7 V2.x Message Profile may limit
the cardinality of segments within the message, limit the cardinality of fields
within segments, or specify a set of user-defined table values.
Examples
In the Dynamic Definition, for example, the Message Profile may define
whether the message requires an accept acknowledgment or an application
acknowledgment.
NOTE
03/09/2000
HL7 V2.x Message Profile creators should follow the use case and interaction
model guidelines documented in the HL7 V3.0 Message Development
Framework (MDF).

HL7 V2.x Message Profile Components
2.3.1 Use Case Model
Definition
A Use Case Model (Figure 2.1) documents the scope and requirements for an
HL7 V2.x Message Profile or set of Message Profiles. The model includes a
diagram and detailed text.
Requirements
The Use Case Model must:
Tool
Reference
Figure 2.1
03/09/2000
Provide a name that clearly and concisely defines the exchange
Define the actors, including the sending and receiving applications
Define the responsibilities of these actors
Document the situations in which the exchange of a particular HL7
Message Profile is required
Document the purpose for each message exchange.
HL7 does not require the use of a Computer Assisted Software Engineering
(CASE) tool to develop Use Case Model. If you have a CASE tool, by all
means use it! If not, provide a textual description of the use case model in
support of your profile.
Refer to the HL7 V3.0 Message Development Framework (MDF) for further
information on use case models and their uses within HL7.

admitted to a healthcare facility.
5. ADT Notification Recipient – is responsible for receiving notification of patient admissions.
Preconditions:
1. A Patient is presented to the healthcare facility.
2. ADT Notification Recipients have subscribed for patient admission/visit event notifications.
3. The Physician authorizes the Patient for admission to the healthcare facility.
4. The Registrar processes the admission request.
Flow of Events:
1. The ADT System sends notification of the patient admission to all subscribers of this event.
2. Upon receipt of a patient admit/visit notification, the ADT Notification Recipient acknowledges that
the event notification was received.
3. The ADT System receives the acknowledgement. If no acknowledgement is received or the
acknowledgement indicates that the notification was not received, then the ADT System logs an error.
Post Conditions:
1. All ADT Notification Recipients are aware that the Patient has been admitted.

2.3.2 Static Definition of an HL7 V2.x Message Profile
Definition
The static definition of an HL7 V2.x Message Profile is directly associated with
its corresponding message in HL7 V2.x Standard. A complete HL7 V2.x
Message Profile shall be defined at the message, segment, and field levels.
Once again, an HL7 V2.x Message Profile is compliant in all aspects with the
HL7-defined message it profiles. However, the HL7 V2.x Message Profile may
define additional constraints on the standard HL7 message.
Constraints on
HL7 Messages
A static profile identifies only those specific elements of a standard HL7
message that are used in the exchange.
A static profile removes all instances of optionality, defining explicitly:
Segments, segment groups, fields and components
Cardinalities
Value sets and coding systems.

As Figure 2.2 depicts, think of the HL7 Message Profile as an overlay of the HL7 Message Structure that is
further constrained. For example, where the HL7 Message Structure shows unlimited number of NK1
Segments, the HL7 Message Profile allows for only three repetitions. Additionally, fields that are optional
in the HL7 Message Structure may be required within the HL7 Message Profile.
2.3.2.1
Message Level Profile
Segment
Definitions
The set of segments included within the message of an HL7 V2.x Message
Profile shall be defined.
Any segments that are required by HL7 shall be included.
Segment
Cardinality
Some segments within HL7 Standard Messages are allowed to repeat. The
cardinality of all the segments within the message shall be defined.
The minimum cardinality shall be specified.
Where known, the maximum cardinality shall also be specified, or
specified as unlimited by using the asterisk symbol (*).
Allowable Values:
[0..0] - Segment not Used
[0..1] - Segment is Optional, but can only be have one Occurrence
[1..1] - Segment is Required, only one Occurrence
[0..n] - Segment is Optional, or may repeat n times.
[1..n] - Segment is Required, and may repeat up to n times
[0..*] - Segment is Optional, or may repeat unlimited number of times
[1..*] - Segment is Required, and may repeat unlimited number of times
Syntax
The message level profile shall be documented using the HL7 abstract message
syntax, with the addition of specifying cardinality for each of the segments
contained within the message structure.

2.3.2.2 Segment Level Profile
Segment
Profiles
The set of fields of each instance of an HL7-defined segment within the HL7
V2.x Message Profile shall be specified.
The result of this definition is a segment profile (Figure 2.4). If a segment
occurs multiple times within a message profile, it may be represented by
different segment profiles. This shall be explicitly defined within the Message
Profile specification.
Segment Profile
Format
The segment level profile shall be documented using the tabular format
employed for the HL7 segment definitions.
03/09/2000
The length column shall be updated to accurately reflect the maximum
allowed length for the field within this profile.
The R/O column shall be updated to reflect the usage of the field within
the particular segment of the message profile (see the following
paragraph, Field Usage).
The RP/# column shall accurately reflect the maximum number of
repetitions of the field allowed for this segment within this message
profile.
Copyright 2000, by Health Level Seven, Inc.
Page 9
Field Usage
The usage of the field shall be defined using one of the following allowed
values:
R
Required.
A conforming sending application shall provide a valid value for all “R”
fields. The value shall be of the specified type and within the range
specified for the field.
For complete compatibility with HL7, any field designated as
“Required” in a standard HL7 message definition shall also be required
in all HL7 Message Profiles of that standard message.
03/09/2000
RE
Required but may be empty.
A conforming sending application shall be capable of providing a valid
value for all “RE” fields. If the conforming sending application knows
the value for this field, then a field value shall be provided of the
specified type and within the range specified for the field. If the
conforming sending application does not know the value for this field,
then the field value shall be specified as empty. For this usage, empty is
a distinguished value.
C
Conditional.
There is a predicate associated with this field that identifies the
conditions under which the value of the field shall be specified. The
predicate must be based on other field values within this message. This
predicate may be expressed as a mathematical expression or in text and
may utilize operators such as equivalence, logical AND, and logical OR.
The conforming sending application shall evaluate the predicate. If the
predicate is satisfied, then the conforming sending application shall
provide a value of the specified type and within the range specified for
the field. If the predicate is not satisfied, then the field value shall be
specified as empty.

CE
Conditional but may be empty.
There is a predicate associated with this field which identifies the
conditions under which the value of the field shall be specified. The
predicate must be based on other field values within this message. This
predicate may be expressed as a mathematical expression or in text and
may utilize operators such as equivalence, logical AND, and logical OR.
The conforming sending application shall evaluate the predicate.
If the predicate is satisfied and the conforming sending application
knows the value for the field, then the conforming sending application
shall provide a value of the specified type and within the range specified
for the field. If the predicate is satisfied but the conforming sending
application does not know the value for this field, then the field value
shall be specified as empty. If the predicate is not satisfied, then the
field value shall be specified as empty.

Not supported.
These fields will not be supported. A conforming sending application
will not create a message with a value for these fields. A conforming
receiving application will not obtain the value of this field contained
within the message. In the case of HL7 V2.x Encoding Rules, these
fields are expected to be empty.

2.3.2.3 Field Level Profile
Field
Definitions
Each individual field within a segment shall be completely defined to eliminate
any possible ambiguity.
In cases where HL7 2.x field descriptions are unclear or ambiguous, a more
precise semantic definition shall be specified.
User-Defined
and Suggested
Field Values
The allowed value set for many fields within the HL7 V2.x Standard is specified
as user-defined or containing only HL7 suggested values.
In these cases, the exact allowed value set shall be specified. These values
shall be defined by agreement between the sending and receiving application
vendors.
Coded Entry (CE) type fields are specified as being populated based on coding
systems. For each of these fields, the specific coding system used shall be
identified. (See Figure 2.6 for an example of a CE type field.)
Many fields in HL7 V2.x are defined to be Composite Data (CM) types. Each
component within these composite fields shall be profiled. This requires
defining the usage, length, data type, and cardinality of each of the components.
Where there are sub-components of a component, each of the sub-components
shall also be profiled using the same criteria.

OBX- 8 Abnormal flags (ID) 00576
Definition: This field is used to indicate the normalcy status of the result.
This field shall be specified with a repeat count of three (3). The first repetition shall specify the
abnormal flag. The second repetition shall specify the delta flag. The third repetition shall
specify the microbial susceptibilities.
Values that may be specified for each repetition of this field are:
abnormal flags
alpha {N,A,AA,CNM}
numeric {L,H,LL,HH,CNM,<,>}
delta flags
alpha {B,W}
numeric {U,D}
microbial susceptibility flags {S,R,I,MS,VS}
Only the most extreme flag for each repetition of the field shall be specified.
Note that the value “CNM” (Could Not Measure) has been added to HL7 table #0078.

Field Description Example – OBX-8 Field
The following is a profile of the CE data type, used in the OBX-5 field for including the value for
an observation.
In this HL7 Message Profile, codes will not always apply. In these situations, only the “text”
component is required. If the sending application does not know the identifier, then the
identifier component may be left empty. If the identifier component is specified, the “name of
coding system” component must be specified.

2.3.3 Dynamic Definition of an HL7 V2.x Message Profile
Definition
The dynamic definition of an HL7 V2.x Message Profile identifies the
acknowledgment mode supported for the interaction between the sending
application and the receiving application(s).
2.3.3.1 Interaction Model
Definition
An Interaction Model (Figure 2.7) shall be included with the HL7 V2.x
Message Profile dynamic specification. This model defines specific interactions
between the applications that support message profile communication
requirements.
The Interaction Model includes interaction diagrams that illustrate the
sequence of trigger event and resulting message flows between the sending and
receiving applications.
Reference
Refer to HL7 V3.0 Message Development Framework (MDF) for further
information regarding interaction models and their uses within HL7.

3 Identification of HL7 Message Profiles Using ASN.1
Profile
Identifiers
HL7 Message Profiles shall be uniquely identified with static and dynamic
profile identifiers.
The sending application uses the profile identifiers to determine the specific
HL7 Message Profile to send.
The receiving application uses the profile identifiers to determine:
3.1
Which HL7 Message Profile it has received
What data to expect from the sending application
Its responsibility as a receiver.
Static Profile Identifier
Definition
The static profile identifier is a means to uniquely identify a message profile.
The static profile identifier is expressed as an ASN.1 Object Identifier (OID).

Conformancebased Queries
Tool related
Information
Since the origin of this document, HL7 has published HL7 V2.4 Chapter 5 Conformance-based Queries. The Conformance Special Interest Group and the
Control/Query Technical Committee have assigned a work group to work on
aligning the two standards.
A proposal has been written and the groups will review at the January 2001 HL7
Working Group Meeting.
We are currently working on a tool to facilitate the creation and browsing of a
profile tool. As the tool becomes available, this documentation will be updated
to reflect its usage.
HL7 Profile
Registration
The Conformance SIG is currently working with HL7 Headquarters to provide
the profile registration utility on the HL7 Web Site. As this utility becomes a
reality, this document will be updated.
Registration
Authority
The registration authority represents the branch from ISO to HL7 and is
specified as joint-iso-ccitt(2) country(16) US(840) organization(1)
hl7(113883). ***has this registration been done by HL7? if so, who does it... if
not is it the intent of this sig to do it? where are the registration OID numbers
kept (?HL7 website?), etc. etc. same question for dynamic profile identifier....
