Hi @Shlomi_Feldman,

Which versions are supported HL7 v2 and/or HL7 v3?
Do you have a documentation where this is described in more detail?

Are different segment types supported here?
EVN (Event Type), MSA (Message Acknowledgment), MSH: (Message Header), OBR: (Observation Request),...

[Chris_Atkinson]

I can see references to both HL7 versions in the AppWiki but @Shlomi_Feldman can probably confirm further as it likely depends on the specific signature.

hi Chris,

as far as I see it, the support is mainly for V2.X.

I will check the issue with the research team and I will report here.

@Shlomi_Feldman  thanks for the infos.

In the German healthcare sector, many customers already using version 3.0.
Will Check Point provide here AC protocol signatures in the future?

[Shlomi_Feldman]

Hi Heiko,
we release Application Control signatures based on field requests. We would definitely release HL7 V3 signatures in the future.

I will contact you directly to learn better on your specific need
