A concrete patient flow: an EMR emits HL7v2 pipe‑delimited messages to the lab and back, with results carrying SNOMED CT (e.g. T57000 for gallbladder) and CPT codes (e.g. 88304), the EMR sends X12 270/271 eligibility to the payer, then packages a CCR/CCD/C32 for Microsoft HealthVault which can be delivered or auto-ingested via SMTP/S‑MIME; developers use open libs like HAPI for HL7 parsing, hospitals run 100 systems in a 400-bed hospital, HealthVault exposes CCR/CCD/C32 via SMTP S/MIME and SDKs (Java, Ruby, Python, PHP); expect two‑way sync, Amalga connector, and a ~$39B market.
