-====== 23.08. HL7 and Tamanu integration ======
+====== 23.08. HL7 and Tamanu/Patis Plus integration ======
 mSupply supports HL7 integration with HL7 compliant APIs. Currently, this is limited to retrieving information from HL7 Servers, mSupply does not send patient data.
 When using mSupply Synchronisation systems, this must be configured on the central server. Data retrieved from the integration is stored on the mSupply Central Server and distributed via sync to remote sites. Data is also available via [[dispensing:prescription_entry#selecting_the_patient|remote patient search]].
-[[https://www.beyondessential.com.au/products/tamanu/|Tamanu]] is the primary use case for this integration at the moment, and the only product we actively test the integration with. If you require integrating with other HL7 servers, please contact us!

 ==== Patient Feed ====
 This is the default and recommended option to use if available. The patient feed will regularly request all recent changes to patients and their related documents available on the HL7 Server. Supported records will seamlessly be integrated into the mSupply Central Server database.
 ==== Patient Search ====
 The patient search option allows remote searches done from mSupply remote sites to additionally search the integrated HL7 server seamlessly, and return both mSupply and HL7 results in the mSupply user interface.
-==== Which one? ====
+<WRAP info center round 90%>
+Note that if there is an error communicating with the HL7 server during the in the patient search or feed function then an email is automatically sent to mSupply support so that they are aware.
+</WRAP>
+==== Which one? ====
 Patient feed is the recommended option as it solves multiple drawbacks of Patient search:
   * Patient search is only available when using "remote patient search" on remote mSupply sites. This means it does not work on non-sync systems, and on sync systems the option does not serve any dispensaries that are active on the central server. As Patient feed gets all updates of all patients from the HL7 server and saves them in the mSupply database, they are available in all contexts.
   * Patient search does not retrieve updates of patients from the HL7 server, only the state of the patient when first searched and added via the integration. Patient feed gets all future updates for all patients from the HL7 integration.
+==== Medication dispense ====
+If this is turned on then all finalised prescriptions are sent every hour to the prescription consuming software at the address given in the **URL** field.
