Technically it is similar to an Enterprise Service Bus but with extra features allowing for legacy systems that do not use web services messaging. Typically they use Java Message Service most Enterprise Application Integration systems can be modified to be used as an MIE but may lack the crucial HL7 and Arden syntax for storing medical knowledge.
