Introduction

This getting started guide will show the required steps to receive electronic labs through OSCAR. The scope of this guide is limited to the technical steps required to install OSCAR's custom Mule server and configure OSCAR to accept labs from  it. It basically works by polling one or more directories which are each assigned to a specific type of lab (single lab provider like GDML). When a new file (ending in .hl7) is seen in the directory, it is securely uploaded to OSCAR using a pre-established shared key. Files successfully uploaded are then moved to an archive directory, and an email can be optionally sent  by mule.

The component is called hl7_file_management and is available through the OSCAR EMR Jenkins CI server
