Description
FHIR is characterized as a 'RESTful' framework, aligning with the general industry interpretation of REST. However, it predominantly adheres to Level 2 of the REST Maturity Model within its core specification, while achieving full Level 3 compliance is feasible through the adoption of extensions. Being a standard, FHIR relies on the uniformity of resource structures and interfaces, which some may argue conflicts with REST principles; nonetheless, this standardization is crucial for maintaining consistent interoperability among various systems. Each "resource type" is associated with a defined set of interactions, allowing for the precise management of resources. Applications that assert their compliance with this framework refer to themselves as "RESTful FHIR," emphasizing their adherence to these standards. Furthermore, within this RESTful design, transactions are executed directly on the server resource via HTTP request and response, reinforcing the framework's integrity and functionality. This structured approach not only enhances interoperability but also streamlines the development of applications that utilize FHIR.
Description
The Qvera Interface Engine (QIE) is a healthcare integration engine from Qvera, which has worked in healthcare interoperability since 2008. It receives, routes and transforms messages between clinical, imaging and administrative systems for hospitals, health systems, imaging centers, and software vendors who embed QIE in their own products.
A single engine covers HL7 v2 and v3, FHIR, DICOM including native DIMSE, X12, NCPDP, ASTM, CDA and IHE profiles, over MLLP, REST, SFTP, file, database, message queue and SMB network share transports. Imaging and clinical interfaces do not need separate tools.
Three capabilities set it apart. DICOM networking is built into the engine itself: store, query, retrieve and modality worklist, with header de-identification, alongside the HL7 and FHIR interfaces. Existing Mirth Connect channels, including their JavaScript, convert into QIE channels from the product menu, with a report of anything worth checking. And high availability, with several QIE nodes sharing one database, is available on every licensing model.
Interfaces are scripted in JavaScript with a built-in Code Wizard, and a built-in AI Companion helps build and troubleshoot them. The datastore is your own choice of MSSQL, MySQL or MariaDB, so there is no proprietary datastore to adopt. The Remote Management Hub monitors and controls QIE instances deployed inside separate customer networks from one console.
Deployment is on-premise, in containers, or in your own cloud. More than 600 sites run QIE in production today, carrying more than 25,000 interfaces and processing more than 50 million messages a day. SOC 2 Type 2 attested.

Pricing Details
$9,980 per year (2 channels)
Choose from Channel-based, Enterprise, or OEM licensing based on how you deploy or distribute QIE. These are commercial models, not feature tiers.
Channel-based licensing
Starting at $9,980 per year
(for 2 channels)
The more channels you license, the lower the cost per channel, so larger deployments cost far less than simple multiplication suggests.
- Full capabilities of the licensed product
- Production, test and developer licenses included
- Standard support and onboarding
- High availability available
Enterprise licensing
Contact Qvera for pricing
Best for large-scale deployments.
- Full capabilities of licensed product
- Production, test and developer licenses included
- Licensed by instance/HA-node count
- Includes unlimited channels
- Standard support and onboarding
- High availability available
OEM licensing
Contact Qvera for pricing
For OEM partners embedding or distributing QIE.
- Full capabilities of licensed product
- Production, test and developer licenses included
- Qvera support for the OEM partner
- Usage billed quarterly in arrears
- Standard support and onboarding
- High availability available
Additional pricing information
- All licensing models begin with a one-year initial term and auto-renew for additional terms unless otherwise agreed.
- Final pricing is confirmed with Qvera sales. Prices are in U.S. dollars.
- Larger licensing options include more developer licenses. Qvera sales sets the exact number in your quote.
What comes with your license?
Complete product capabilities
Every licensing model includes the complete QIE feature set. There are no Basic, Pro, or Enterprise feature editions. High availability is available across all three licensing models.
Production, test and developer licenses
Every license covers one production instance and one test instance for staging, development and testing, and each runs the full QIE license. Every license also includes developer licenses for developer workstations, and larger licensing options include more.
Standard support and onboarding
Standard support is available from 8 a.m.–5 p.m. Mountain Time by phone, email, support portal, and knowledge base. System-down emergencies receive 24/7 assistance. Live engineer assistance, onboarding support, and answers to simple interface-development questions are included.
Services beyond standard support
Training and certification is available for an additional charge. More involved interface-development work is quoted separately under a statement of work. Qvera offers Integration Services for fixed-scope projects, dedicated engineers, or fully managed integration services for QIE.
Remote Management Hub (RMH)
Remote Management Hub brings every registered QIE site into one central dashboard. From a single console, operators can monitor the health and status of a QIE fleet, review version and activity information, and open a site’s administration console when work is needed.
RMH is an optional add-on available with any QIE licensing model. It is licensed separately and sized by the number of sites you register.
