Process of integration: Currently doing negotiation with the respective vendor. It may use HL7 or may not, depend on cost and readiness of the respective vendor. This will include integration with existing laboratory and pharmacy system. Integration of our radiology & image information system with PACS is 98% completed, using DICOM & HL7 standard.
