Indeed, not many on the Internet, but here are a few samples

Here you will find more samples even with the found truncation char

Description of the problem

It is not true that raw HL7 messages will directly display on Google as web pages, as displaying them does not make much sense to web users.

So, to find your sample HL7 messages, you need to dive a little deeper into what the web search tools show ...

How to solve it

You should find sample messages complete with tools that work with them.

Tool developers needed samples to test their tools.

If the tool is open source, you can find sample messages in the source code repository or get some samples by asking members of the development community.

In the case of closed source tools, you will probably find some “demo” messages after installing the tool.

Some solutions to get started

Some tools that I find very useful may (may) contain sample HL7 messages

To get started, start with the most standard HL7 Version 2.7 specification, which you can download from the HL7.org website. Once you have created an account, go to Standards> Primary Standards> HL7 Version 2 Product Suite. Some domains, such as ADT, are well covered, others have just a few samples.

If this is not enough, be a little specific what specific message you are looking for.

Here is an example of an HL7 message:

MSH|^~\&||.|||199908180016||ADT^A04|ADT.1.1698593|P|2.7 PID|1||000395122||LEVERKUHN^ADRIAN^C||19880517180606|M|||6 66TH AVE NE^^WEIMAR^DL^98052||(157)983-3296|||S||12354768|87654321 NK1|1|TALLIS^THOMAS^C|GRANDFATHER|12914 SPEM ST^^ALIUM^IN^98052|(157)883-6176 NK1|2|WEBERN^ANTON|SON|12 STRASSE MUSIK^^VIENNA^AUS^11212|(123)456-7890 IN1|1|PRE2||LIFE PRUDENT BUYER|PO BOX 23523^WELLINGTON^ON^98111|||19601||||||||THOMAS^JAMES^M|F|||||||||||||||||||ZKA535529776

The above message is divided into four different types of segments: MSH, PID, NK1 and IN1.

A segment contains fields separated by a field separator | . Fields can be further separated by ^ , the so-called component separator, and contain subcomponents indicated by & .

MSH (message header) reports the purpose of the message, for example. its identifier, sowing application, sending means, receiving application, receiving means, type, date and time of message, its version of HL7, etc.

PID (Patient Identification) contains patient information, for example. their identifier, name, ADD, address, gender, race, date and time of admission, etc.

NK1 (Next of Kin) contains information about a relative / other person.

IN1 (insurance 1) contains detailed information about the health insurance that the patient has, for example, Medicare, Medicaid, Tricare, etc. It contains the identifier of the insurance plan, the name of the insurance company, the address of the company, the name of the insured person, policy number, etc.

a bit late for the party, but still.

First of all, you need to know what messages you need to receive. HL7 is quite extensive and covers many different workflows.

However, as a rule, we will use the actual production messages, which we will anonymize by deleting the identifying information of the patient. The difference is also very important between different message producers, so ideally you will need to focus on a specific provider, at least for a start.

The US federal government conducts EHR testing of HL7 content, so it's a good resource for HL7 examples, although they only have HL7 2.5.1 (not yet 2.7). There are four sites that have relevant data:

Go to the “Documentation” tab and then the “Test case documentation” heading and you can download the zip.

Hope this helps!
