HL7 message source

What is the HL7 message source?

When data is sent into PKB via a HL7 message we display the source next to the data point. The source shows which organisation (or third party on behalf of an organisation) has sent the data into the record. To learn more about sending data to PKB on behalf of an organisation, please read our developer wiki page.
