Integrate your digital health solution with IMS MAXIMS using 6B’s secure, standards-based healthcare interoperability services. We connect applications, clinical systems, mobile tools, medical devices, and analytics platforms with the MAXIMS electronic patient record (EPR) and patient administration system (PAS), enabling reliable data exchange, more efficient workflows, and safer, more coordinated patient care.
Get in touchTrusted by NHS organisations, care providers, and healthtech innovators, 6B delivers full-lifecycle IMS MAXIMS integration, from discovery and architecture through development, testing, deployment, and ongoing support. We build scalable, maintainable integrations for clinical decision support, patient engagement, electronic observations, diagnostics, workflow extensions, and operational dashboards.
Our team combines healthcare knowledge with expertise in HL7, FHIR, open APIs, event-driven messaging, and clinical system integration. We embed solutions into existing MAXIMS workflows while maintaining data integrity, security, usability, and regulatory compliance.
IMS MAXIMS is a modular, browser-based PAS and EPR platform supporting patient administration and clinical care. Its capabilities include admissions, discharges, transfers, scheduling, documentation, order communications, results, prescribing, observations, theatres, emergency care, bed management, and reporting.
The platform can be deployed as a complete EPR or introduced through individual modules. Its web and mobile applications support point-of-care workflows such as observations, discharge planning, theatre safety checks, and task management.
MAXIMS supports FHIR APIs, bi-directional HL7 messaging, IHE, and CDA, enabling integration with PAS, EPR, diagnostic, departmental, device, and third-party systems. It can operate as the central patient record or within a wider best-of-breed ecosystem.
We begin with structured discovery involving clinical, operational, technical, and governance stakeholders. Together, we define workflows, users, data sources, safety requirements, and intended outcomes.
Typical integrations include patient demographics, admission and discharge events, observations, diagnostic results, prescribing, referrals, and scheduling.
We identify relevant MAXIMS modules, APIs, HL7 messages, FHIR resources, and integration-engine dependencies. We also map patients, practitioners, encounters, locations, orders, results, medications, and clinical documents, defining ownership and update rules.
Architecture may use FHIR APIs, REST services, HL7 messaging, interface engines, middleware, microservices, or event-driven patterns. Authentication, role-based access, audit logging, encryption, consent, and error handling are designed from the outset.
Reusable components accelerate delivery, including FHIR handlers, HL7 parsers, authentication modules, transformation templates, and routing pipelines. Secure testing validates patient matching, data accuracy, sequencing, performance, permissions, auditability, exception handling, and transaction recovery.
Testing also covers high volumes, duplicate messages, missing data, downtime, and other edge cases.
Before launch, we coordinate acceptance testing, clinical safety review, deployment, and operational readiness. After go-live, we monitor performance, resolve issues, and maintain compatibility with MAXIMS and NHS changes.
Clinicians gain connected access to demographics, observations, orders, results, medications, alerts, and documents without repeated entry. Embedded tools reduce context switching and support safer prescribing, earlier deterioration detection, faster diagnostics, and multidisciplinary coordination.
Patients benefit from smoother referrals, admissions, transfers, and discharges. Portals, virtual care tools, mobile applications, and communication services can improve access and engagement.
Operational teams gain visibility of capacity, demand, patient flow, waiting times, beds, resources, and performance. Administrative teams reduce rekeying across referrals, appointments, admissions, discharges, and reporting.
For healthtech vendors, IMS MAXIMS integration provides reusable, standards-based access to established NHS environments.
6B designs around each organisation’s MAXIMS configuration, recognising differences in modules, interfaces, workflows, and connected systems.
Our specialists understand HL7 FHIR, HL7 v2, APIs, OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, and event-driven messaging.
We select integration patterns that balance real-time access, reliability, performance, and long-term maintainability.
Reusable FHIR handlers, HL7 parsers, authentication flows, transformation frameworks, and monitoring tools accelerate delivery without compromising quality.
Security and governance are embedded through encryption, role-based access, audit trails, consent controls, data minimisation, and retention policies.
We support UK GDPR, NHS DSPT, ISO 27001, DCB0129, and DCB0160 requirements while strengthening resilience through logging, reconciliation, retries, alerting, and downtime procedures.
From discovery to post-go-live maintenance, 6B provides one accountable partner for dependable IMS MAXIMS integration in live healthcare environments.

IMS MAXIMS is a modular, browser-based patient administration system and electronic patient record platform. It supports patient management, clinical workflows, order communications, electronic prescribing, observations, theatres, emergency care, bed management, and reporting.
Yes. IMS MAXIMS is designed as an open, interoperable platform that can connect with third-party EPR, PAS, diagnostic, prescribing, clinical, and administrative systems. The interfaces available will depend on the organisation’s MAXIMS deployment and configuration.
IMS MAXIMS supports open healthcare standards including HL7, FHIR, CDA, and relevant IHE approaches. Its patient management platform includes FHIR-based open APIs and bidirectional HL7 messaging.
An integration may exchange patient demographics, referrals, appointments, admissions, discharges, transfers, clinical documentation, orders, results, medicines information, theatre activity, bed status, and discharge records. The exact data flows depend on the implemented modules and available interfaces.
Yes. IMS MAXIMS can be integrated with laboratory information systems, radiology information systems, PACS, and order communications platforms so that diagnostic requests, statuses, results, and reports are available within connected clinical workflows.
Yes. IMS MAXIMS can operate as a PAS and EPR and is designed to serve as a central source of patient information within a healthcare ecosystem. It may also be implemented modularly alongside existing best-of-breed systems.
We apply structured clinical risk management throughout discovery, design, development, testing, and deployment. This includes patient-matching controls, message validation, audit trails, exception handling, downtime procedures, reconciliation, and support for DCB0129 and DCB0160 responsibilities.
Timescales depend on the number of workflows, interface availability, data complexity, supplier coordination, testing requirements, and governance approvals. A focused interface may take several weeks, while a multi-system integration programme can require several months.
Whether you're developing a new digital health product or extending an existing solution with IMS MAXIMS integration, 6B brings the technical expertise, healthcare insight, and experience needed to accelerate delivery.
