Hello,

I used OpenEMR 3.2 when I was in private practice. It was setup to forward/clone patient records, which saved a lot of time because I no longer had to copy and paste them each time a patient came in.

If you would be interested in adding this as an option to OpenEMR, I would send you a copy of my last 3.2 backup.

Thanks for all of your great work!

Mike

Please be mindful of HIPAA concerns.

If the former practice is not US based, patient confidentiality still should govern any disclosure.

Hi Michael,

Sounds like a useful feature.

Best way to submit new code to contribute to the project is via git/github. Here’s a tutorial on getting things started:
