MEDITECH Expanse Integration

​

Supported Versions

Commure supports multiple simultaneous MEDITECH instances. Contact your Commure account team for multi-instance configuration guidance.

​

How It Works

1. A provider initiates an ambient session from the Commure app after a document is created in Expanse.
2. Commure records the encounter and generates an AI-structured clinical summary.
3. Content is sent back to MEDITECH via the Observation API, linked to the correct patient, visit, and document.
4. A Yellow Flag alert appears in Expanse, notifying the initiating provider that ambient content is ready.
5. The provider reviews, edits if needed, and applies content into the mapped clinical sections.
6. Content is signed and committed to the note within Expanse.

If content already exists in a section (e.g., entered by nursing), Expanse prompts the provider to resolve the conflict before applying ambient text.

Phase 1: Core Integration

Available with Expanse 2.2.58+ (PP 2.2.58) or 2.1.70 (PP 2.1.70) Phase 1 covers appointment-based ambient documentation with note writeback into up to 4 clinical fields via MEDITECH’s Sectioned Observation APIs. Supported clinical sections (LOINC-mapped): AI-generated content from these sections is written back to a single created document in MEDITECH. Commure provides UI/UX support for statusing and managing content across multi-document workflows. Phase 1 also includes:

• Appointment integration using MEDITECH APIs (scheduling and registration context pulled for ambient session initialization)
• Sandbox validation with test patients and appointments, configured by the customer in Expanse, before production go-live

Phase 1 requires an appropriate MEDITECH Service Pack. Your MEDITECH system administrator can confirm current PP version and upgrade eligibility.

Phase 2+: Enhanced Functionality

Functionality expands as MEDITECH upgrades Priority Pack versions. For additional API read functionality, Commure and the customer can agree on expanded clinical context including lab results, imaging results, active problems, meds, allergies, procedures, and vitals.

Setup Requirements

​

MEDITECH Side

• Document Dictionary: “Use for Document Feature?” must be set to Yes
• Documentation Section Dictionary: LOINC-based nomenclature mapping required per supported section; specific IMO concepts must be mapped for ambient ingestion
• User Access: Users must exist in both Expanse and Commure; ambulatory providers require resource and appointment access; MIS Person Profile must include RESTful API Data Access Groups
• Service Pack: Must be on an eligible Priority Pack version for desired functionality (see table above)

​

Commure Side

• Commure configures the Observation API connection and validates with test appointments and mock patients in non-production sandbox
• Upon successful sandbox validation, Commure enables note writeback for additional test users
• After expanded validation, full deployment to all corresponding phase users

---

​

Security & Access

• SAML Identity Provider (IdP) required: Must use the same identifiers as Expanse
• Off-network use requires IdP availability
• Mobile Device Management (MDM) policies are recommended for device-based deployments

---

​

Getting Started

1. Confirm your current Priority Pack version with your MEDITECH system administrator
2. Contact your Commure account team to confirm API readiness and initiate the integration intake process
3. Commure will coordinate with your MEDITECH team to configure the Observation API, document dictionary mappings, and user access
4. Sandbox validation is completed before any production rollout

Notes

• This integration applies to MEDITECH Expanse only (not MEDITECH 6.x or Magic)
• Functionality availability is contingent on MEDITECH PP version - contact Commure if you are unsure what is available in your environment
• As MEDITECH releases future API upgrades, additional functionality can be enabled without a full re-implementation
