Jim,
I totally agree with you! I have been saying this to the Cerner person from the very beginning of this project. I can’t believe some (I really should say most) of the changes that I have been asked to make so that Cerner would actually accept the HL7 messages from me.
I think it is ridiculous that Cerner doesn’t support this HL7 escaping technique.
Believe me, every time I get a chance, I will mention this to them.
