Interface Engine - ANS Has powerful tools for manipulating interface messages
Middle Tier Device - ANS Helps route interface messages to appropriate instrument.
Typically one per organization
An advance framework for managing interfaces with third party systems called... -
ANS Bridges
Triggers - ANS Applications that cause an event to happen (Some are hard coded, and some
are configurable based on workflow)
Mapping - ANS Decides how values should be interpreted on an interface
Translation table - ANS Takes a value and translates it to another value
Identity - ANS Framework used for mapping master file records on interfaces

,Facility (Chapter 2.3) - ANS The most general, all-encompassing level in Epic and refers to an
entire organization or enterprise. (Backbone of the admin build)
Levels on which Beaker CP facility structure is organized... - ANS Facility (LDF)->Laboratory-
>Section
Overall facility structure - ANS Facility (General)->Service area->Location->Department-
>Room
->Bed(Specific)
HOD - ANS Hospital Outpatient Department. Used in areas that schedule patient
appointments and admitted patients
Virtual Departments - ANS Patients are not scheduled or admitted here
Outpatient Department - ANS Used in areas that only schedule patient appointments
Hospital Unit - ANS Necessary for areas where patients are admitted ADT(Admission,
Discharge, and Transfer)
Records for configuration hierarchy - ANS Test>Lab>Facility. This means that to find specific
settings, the system will look to the test record first, then the laboratory record, and finally the
facility record.
Receiving extensions (2.7) - ANS Used to prevent lab techs from receiving specimens that do
not meet certain criteria (i.e. missing information)
@COPYRIGHT ALL RIGHTS RESERVED PAGE 2 OF 16
, Receiving behavior (2.7) - ANS Specify whether specimens should be received in their
destination lab or into the lab you are logged into(this is the default and recommended option)
TAT Basis (2.7) - ANS The TAT Basis field indicates how the turnaround time should be
calculated when a test is from one lab to another.
1. First Received Instant (When the test is first received into the initial lab)
2. Last Received Instant (When the test is last received into the final lab)
Default Turnaround Time (TAT) Values - ANS The turnaround time you enter in the TAT field
reflects the amount of time that can elapse before results are expected for tests of a certain
priority
Clinical Administration - ANS Set of text-based menus used to configure applications (mouse
does not work in this field)
Admins utilize this
Hyperspace - ANS Graphical user interface (GUI) Used to configure and perform end-user
workflows
Clinical Administration & Hyperspace - ANS Through these two applications is how we see
chronicles (epic's database management system)
Filing Cabinet - ANS Chronicles - Epic's database management system; like a filing cabinet ,
where all the information is stored
Master file - ANS Drawer
