Peter,
The labs from Quest come in as an HL-7 format, what I think you mean by structured, and others seem to call granular. Hospital labs come as PDF ,, and they have no interest in an interface. Our Health Information Exchange promises us it will serve as the interface. I don't hear a lot of good about HIE's here, but have got to say ours has all the right things as their stated goals. Maybe it helps that Alaska is medically small enough that they know each of us by name and can't hide. You might check with yours.
