Details
The EHI Export Specification provided by Epic details the technical requirements for handling SMS content related to statements (billing records). This structure includes essential fields such as `PRINT_ID` (NUMERIC), which serves as a unique identifier for the statement/detail bill record, and `LINE` (INTEGER), which specifies the line number for associated information. Crucially, the specification defines two VARCHAR type fields related to SmartMarkup processing: `SMARTMARKUP_MNEM` and `SMARTMARKUP_VALUE`. These fields are used to store the mnemonics and actual values, respectively, necessary for resolving the content when generating SMS notifications from complex medical information. These columns provide a standardized mechanism that goes beyond simple data transfer. They offer a structured reference point for adapting detailed clinical information (statements/details) into an accessible format like SMS on mobile devices. This ensures consistency and interoperability when transmitting detailed healthcare information across different systems.
