Prime Suite Patient Population Export Structure & Schema
A Patient Population export is initiated when a Greenway client submits a request through the My Greenway portal. The request is fulfilled by Greenway Professional Services. When a Patient Population export is completed, the export package containing the patient population electronic health information (EHI) is provided in the directory structure below.

Note: Some of the files provided as part of the Prime Suite EHI Export will need to be processed through a conversion tool to be unencrypted. The Prime Suite Conversion Tool installation file is available on the My Greenway support portal. Information about exporting and converting single patient or patient population EHI is provided in the Prime Suite online help.
Root Export Folder
The following files will be exported post completion of Patient Population Export and available inside the root export folder.
- Data Export Files. Within the root folder will be a list of XML files that are the data export files containing table data.
- Document Export Folder. The Naming convention of this folder is: PatientPopulation_DataExport_SiteID<site id>
- A shortcut to Greenway's public-facing Electronic Health Information Export page
The image below is an example of the export root folder.
Patient Population Data Export
The data export files will include all the patient population EHI data for a specific health organization. Each data table is an XML file, containing a specific data type (indicated by the table name) for all patients. The naming convention of the data files that are exported is:
- PatientPopulation_DataExport_SiteID<SiteID>_<Tablename>_Batch1.xml
The schema for these XMLs is:
<Table Name>
<row> //First record of the table for the patient
<Column 1>Column Value </Column1> //first column value
<Column 2>Column Value </Column2> //second column value
</row>
<row> //Second record of the table for the patient
<Column 1>Column Value </Column1> //first column value
<Column 2>Column Value </Column2> //second column value
</row>
</Table Name>
For example, below is an example of the XML schema for the Payment History table:
How to use the reference information for Data Tables
The Prime Suite Data Dictionary provides reference information for each table, including a table description and descriptions of the fields in the table. You can open a patient data table and then open the Prime Suite Data Dictionary to the table of the same name to perform a side-by-side review of this information.
Patient Population Document Export
The document export folder will include all EHI documents for the Patient Population of the health organization. The naming convention of the document folder that is exported is:
- PatientPopulation_DocumentExport_SiteID<SiteID>.xml
Within the folder will be XML files for each document type containing the documents of that type for all patients in the health organization. The naming convention of the exported document files is:
- PatientPopulation_DocumentExport_SiteID<SiteID>_<Tablename>_Batch1.xml
The XML files for a document type are in batches of one million documents. When the first batch exceeds one million documents, documents are then added to a new batch file for that document type. The batches are numbered sequentially beginning with 1.
The image below is an example of the export root folder.
How to view the Documents
The XML files in the Document Export folder are in machine-readable format. They will need to be processed through a conversion tool to be converted to a computable format. The Prime Suite Conversion Tool installation file is available on the My Greenway support portal.
