Hi Luis,
Docs on the CDR engine (which caclulates the AMC/CQM rules) can be found here:
http://www.open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/CDR_Engine
User guide is here:
http://www.open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/CDR_User_Manual
The reports can be created in OpenEMR at Administration->Reports->Clinic
This page specifically goes over the AMC calculations:
http://www.open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/Description_AMC
This page discusses what CQM rules are included:
http://www.open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/CDR_User_Manual
The code for the CQM reports can be found here:
library/classes/rulesets/ReportTypes.php (file)
library/classes/rulesets/Cqm (directory)
(By following the code for one rule, you can get an idea of how they works.)
Also, to get an idea of what is needed for these rules (pretty dang complicated), check out the requirements for each rule here: http://www.cms.gov/apps/ama/license.asp?file=/QualityMeasures/Downloads/EP_MeasureSpecifications.zip
