Is iNTERFACEWARE a service-based integration provider?
No. We offer Iguana, an integration engine that gives your team full control to build, manage, and maintain your own interfaces. Instead of outsourcing your integration work, Iguana provides a powerful platform that lets you customize and adapt integrations to fit your systems and workflows. This approach gives you greater flexibility, faster iteration, and avoids vendor lock-in.
That said, you're not on your own. While you remain in control, we offer optional professional services to help when needed — whether you're building your first interface, testing a proof of concept, or solving a complex integration challenge.
Who typically uses Iguana for EHR integration?
Iguana is designed for teams that want to build and manage their own integrations — typically healthcare software vendors, hospital IT departments, and developers.
To use Iguana effectively, you’ll need access to a developer or technical team. It’s a code-based platform, so programming is required. If you’re new to healthcare standards (like FHIR, HL7, etc.), our templates and tools can help you get started. But if you don’t have technical resources in-house or through a partner, Iguana likely won’t be the right fit.
Do you offer out-of-the-box integration with all EHR systems?
Not exactly, but neither does anyone else. While some platforms offer pre-built adapters for certain systems, they often fall short when it comes to system-specific nuances or less common configurations. Instead, Iguana gives you the tools and framework to build exactly what you need, no matter the system. You’re not limited by what an adapter can or can't do — you can tailor your integration to fit your exact requirements.
Will I need to write code to build integrations with Iguana?
Yes. Iguana is a code-based integration engine designed for developers. But you’re not starting from scratch — Iguana includes a robust set of pre-built Component templates, libraries, and helper tools to accelerate your development. You write only the parts that are specific to your system and workflow.
If Iguana is code-based, will I be on my own when building interfaces?
Not at all. While Iguana empowers you to build fully custom integrations in code, you’re supported every step of the way. We provide pre-built templates, shared code libraries, and intelligent development tools like autocompletion and real-time output previews. Best of all, our highly responsive support team is available whenever you need guidance — offering the kind of expert, hands-on help that sets iNTERFACEWARE apart.
What types of systems can I connect with Iguana?
Iguana can connect with virtually any system — EHRs, HIS platforms, LIS/RIS, billing systems, databases, cloud apps, devices, and more. If the system can send or receive data via HL7, FHIR, API, SFTP, LLP, database access (ODBC), or file-based methods, Iguana can be used to integrate with it.
Which data formats does Iguana support?
Iguana supports a wide range of healthcare and general-purpose data formats including HL7 v2, FHIR (JSON/XML), X12, CDA, EDI, XML, JSON, delimited text, and custom formats. Its scripting flexibility means it can be adapted to handle any structured or semi-structured data format.
Do you provide pre-built adapters for systems like Epic or Athenahealth?
We provide a comprehensive collection of starter templates (including ones like our Epic FHIR and Athenahealth Components) which include pre-written code and helper libraries. These are not turnkey solutions but powerful jump-starts designed to be customized. You modify them to suit your organization’s specific needs and environment.
How does Iguana compare to drag-and-drop or low-code integration tools?
Low-code tools can be great for simple, one-size-fits-all use cases — but they often fall short in complex healthcare environments where flexibility and control matter. Iguana is built for developers who need to handle edge cases, custom workflows, and real-world interoperability. With code, you’re never boxed in.
Can Iguana scale to handle multiple connections and environments?
Yes. Iguana is used in enterprise environments with hundreds or even thousands of interfaces across multiple hospitals, clinics, labs, and regions. Its architecture supports modular deployments, multi-instance setups, and automated monitoring — all designed to scale with your integration needs.
What kind of support can I expect from iNTERFACEWARE?
You can expect responsive and knowledgeable support from a team that understands integration. We provide email and phone support, detailed documentation, and training resources to help your team succeed. For more hands-on help, our professional services team is available to assist with specific projects or ongoing needs.
Whether you're exchanging data through APIs, working with HL7, FHIR, or other formats and protocols, we're here to help guide you through the process. Many of our customers cite the quality of our support as one of the main reasons they chose Iguana.
