I have noticed something while doing some HIPAA research this afternoon that the OpenEMR project is behind on.
The Rule:
Per the AMA, the patient’s name and DOB must be included on each page of the Medical Record.
How it affects OpenEMR:
In it’s current state, when exporting/printing a patient’s Medical Record, the patient’s name and DOB only appears in the header on the first page of a multi-page record.
