FHIR R4 Provenance Support - Compliance Built-In

Every conversion automatically includes FHIR R4 Provenance resources, providing complete audit trails and data lineage tracking for regulatory compliance. Meet HIPAA audit requirements and FDA 21 CFR Part 11 electronic record regulations without additional development.

  • Source message ID tracking - Captures HL7 control ID (MSH-10)
  • Transformation timestamp - Records exact conversion time (MSH-7)
  • Transformation agent identification - Documents Redix engine version
  • Complete data lineage verification - Trace FHIR back to source

Performance Benchmarks

Fast processing times tested on entry-level hardware demonstrate efficiency even on minimal infrastructure:

Message Complexity Segment Count Processing Time
Simple messages 3-10 segments 50-80ms
Standard messages 10-25 segments 80-120ms
Complex messages 25-50+ segments 120-150ms
Test Environment: RedHat Enterprise Linux 9, 2 CPU cores, 4GB RAM, 80GB storage. Times include full pipeline (HL7Normalize + HL7Reshuffle + conversion). Performance on mid-range or high-end systems will be even better.
