MuleSoft Accelerator for Healthcare enables healthcare providers to unlock critical patient data to build a patient 360 within Salesforce Health Cloud, faster and easier than ever before. The solution includes pre-built APIs, connectors, integration templates, and a prescriptive end-to-end reference architecture to bring patient demographics information and COVID-19 test results from any EHR into Health Cloud using HL7 V2 or FHIR standards.

Use case covered
Electronic Laboratory Reporting is the electronic transmission of laboratory reports that identify a notifiable condition from laboratories to public health. The California Reportable Disease Information Exchange - Electronic Lab Reporting (CalREDIE ELR) allows laboratories to comply with California public health disease reporting requirements through an automated, secure process.
CalREDIE ELR replaces traditional paper-based methods of laboratory reporting for many reportable conditions in jurisdictions using CalREDIE. Timely reporting via a phone call is still required for selected diseases and conditions.
