nHapi

NHapi is a .NET port of the original Java project HAPI.

NHapi allows Microsoft .NET developers to easily use an HL7 2.x object model. This object model allows for parsing and encoding HL7 2.x data to/from Pipe Delimited or XML formats. A very handy program for use in the health care industry.

This project is NOT affiliated with the HL7 organization. This software just conforms to the HL7 2.x specifications.
