Hi! I work as a digital health consultant at CIIPS/IECS (Center for Implementation and Innovation in Health Policies), a research and implementation team based in Argentina. We partnered with Integrando Salud for a project funded by PAHO (Pan American Health Organization) to build an open source Telehealth platform for countries from the Americas region and beyond.
We did a benchmarking on existing open source EMRs, and decided to go for OpenEMR. We used Jitsi as the videoconference solution, both as SaaS or a self-hosted installation. We developed different customisations on both ends to make them work together smoothly.
The project is hosted at:
Optionally, a help desk solution provided by the Freescout project can be used.
There are some countries already piloting the solution in Latin America and the Caribbean.
Now we are starting a new project funded by PATH to expand its capabilities, including FHIR integrations, WHO SMART Guidelines compatibility, among others.
We are also promoting its registration as a Global Good for Health.
Would love to hear your insights and, and looking forward to collaborating in different ways.
Best regards,
Daniel
