OhMD is a secure text messaging app. On their website it states that it is actually integrated with OpenEMR, among other EMRs. Anyone knows how to activate/use it within OpenEMR? Any specifics on this?
Thanks,
Alex.

So is WhatsApp however in this case I don’t know who did this project but will say it is not part of OpenEMR.
It was probably custom done by a vendor that used the OpenEMR brand for marketing purposes.
We have a SMS messaging module(Twilio) that is set up to support other messaging, email and fax vendors with a little effort. Hopefully if the vendor that did this decides to contribute it to the community there are modular resources in OpenEMR.
Hello Jerry & everyone
We have joined Twilio and entered the username and key into the module. However, we are having issues finding a way to use it to text our patients. Can you direct us on how to do it. We have looked but can’t find a clear set of instruction on how to use it.
TIA
Hi @CalvinTy
Three main uses for SMS module
You may run appointment reminders from the modules Activity menu.
Reply to any reply by patient to reminder in modules Received tab.
Portal Template maintenance
edit: Forgot to mention that this notification sends a one-time token to patient that will auto log them into their portal then take them to and render the document in question by notification. An example email notification:
We have other cool stuff in development like
We need community support to continue building and improving these features.
Hope this helps!
Btw: Just found a bug in the reply to patient reminder dialog that i’ll fix next patch…
