Date/time conversion: Using the fuzzy date/time parser

Non-conformant Lab Result Message

I can’t say where this comes from. Save to say that it’s from a big laboratory vendor.

This is nothing unusual in healthcare. The least conformant interfaces are the ones from the biggest most dominant vendors in the industry. Often they are stuck on ancient systems that were written long before even HL7 existed.

Notice the mix of date time formats. The date formats are somewhat ambiguous. See the DD-MMM-YY date format? Not terribly good for the turn of century. Ah well this is the reality of the systems we have to interface with in healthcare. I’ve attached a vmd and some Lua code that works with this.

I used the fuzzy date/time parser.
