Mirth Connect by NextGen Healthcare is an open-source healthcare integration engine that filters, transforms, extracts, and routes messages between systems, translating standards like HL7 into formats each system understands. Channels are designed and managed through a graphical Administrator interface, with installers for Windows, Linux, and macOS.

Use cases

  • convert HL7 v2 messages to XML or FHIR
  • route patient messages between hospital systems
  • integrate an EHR with lab and radiology systems
  • build a healthcare interface engine for an HIE
  • extract data from and push data to a database from HL7 feeds
  • filter and transform incoming clinical messages

When to choose

  • you need to translate and route HL7 or other healthcare message standards between systems
  • you want a mature, GUI-managed integration engine for clinical data exchange
  • you need filtering, transformation, and multi-destination routing in one tool

When to avoid

  • your integration needs are outside healthcare messaging and a general ETL or message broker would suffice
  • you need a lightweight library to embed rather than a standalone server application
  • you require a permissively licensed dependency - the license is a custom NextGen license, not a standard open-source one
