The Engineer Behind
Healthcare AI

Yazan Alhelo

I'm a healthcare integration and AI engineer. I work where software meets the hospital floor: testing interfaces end to end, getting sign-off from clinical teams, and fixing what breaks after go-live.

My work spans both sides of healthcare technology: backend and analytics development at ClearMetrX (USA remote), processing millions of pharmacy records daily, and integration engineering at Hospinorm (Gulf Drug LLC), deploying, testing and supporting Omnicell dispensing systems across 10+ hospitals in the UAE.

Outside of work, I build AI-powered tools like Cura AI, MeetingNotes, and HL7 Viewer — products I build to solve real problems I encounter in the field.

Case Studies

Integration Work
In the Field

Hospital integration work from testing and go-live to production debugging, interface design and security remediation. Client and site names are withheld.

🧪

Deployment & Testing: EHR ↔ Omnicell

Before pharmacy and nursing staff can rely on a new cabinet site, every HL7 interface between the hospital's EHR and Omnicell has to be proven end to end.

Run SIT for HL7 interfaces between EHRs and Omnicell: Cerner via Rhapsody, Epic and a mock HIS via Mirth, and Mediware
Test every message stream end to end: ADT A01, RDE O01, DFT P03 and ZPM
Verify ports and connectivity between the interface engine, OmniCenter and cabinets
Document test evidence for client sign-off
Support UAT with pharmacy and nursing teams
Plan cutovers: server snapshot, one-cabinet pilot, then full rollout

Debugging in Production

Two live issues where the symptom showed up in one system and the cause sat in another.

Missing stock updates in Cerner: traced to wrong interface location mappings, corrected the mappings and verified the updates came through
A NICU patient missing from one cabinet: followed the patient through Epic, Mirth and cabinet logs and traced it to a discharge event sent during a return from the OT

📑

Cerner ↔ Omnicell Interface Specification

A hospital network needed its Cerner HIS and Omnicell dispensing cabinets to exchange patient, order, dispense, charge, and inventory data through a Rhapsody integration engine.

Wrote the full functional specification for the interface across ADT, RDE, RDS, DFT, and ZPM streams
Produced an HL7 mapping gap analysis between the two systems
Led TEST-environment interface testing for a cabinet rollout at a government hospital

Infusion Pump HL7 Pipeline

Infusion pumps emit HL7 ORU messages that had to be received, transformed, and stored reliably for downstream use.

Built the pipeline on Mirth Connect 4.5.2 with a PostgreSQL backend
Designed a receiver / transformer / dispatcher channel architecture
Handled ORU parsing and routing end to end

Five-Hospital Hub-and-Spoke Deployment

Five hospitals were to share one central OmniCenter server, which meant cabinets at every site had to reach the hub across separate networks.

Built the firewall change request for the hub-and-spoke design
Produced the ports-and-protocols rule sheet used by the network teams
Managed OmniCenter patching on Windows Server 2016 against vendor certification matrices

CVE Remediation on Hospital Servers

Compliance scans flagged vulnerabilities on production dispensing servers that had to be closed without breaking vendor-certified software.

Replaced Oracle Java with Eclipse Temurin
Upgraded ODBC and OLE DB drivers
Wrote Log4j non-impact statements for Mirth bundles

What I've Built

From AI clinical platforms to desktop healthcare tools — each built to solve a real problem.

Demo uses fictional patient data.

About this project

Cura AI is built to take documentation off the clinician's plate. It transcribes the visit in 12 languages, including Arabic, labels who is speaking, and drafts the SOAP note and visit summary from the conversation. An AI assistant works from the patient chart to summarize the case, suggest a differential diagnosis and check drug interactions, and a "what if" simulator explores how a change in the case would change the picture.
