Hi all,
I am new to OpenEMR, so please forgive me if the things of my interest have
already been discussed.
I have considerable experience as an apps specialist in HIS systems all over
the globe.
With that experience, and having worked with OpenEMR for just a few days, I
can already say that it is an impressive platform to start with, and the
best I have come across.
It is not perfect, but it supports most of the functionality/modules that a
private practitioner or a small clinic might need. I am also impressed by
the big community behind OpenEMR.
Congratulations to all for the work incorporated, and the support available
in so many ways.
After “playing” for about a week, the most striking feature that I am
missing is a proper Order Entry system. The ability to select through
category>subcategory>item, the orders, drugs, services, from one common
module (formally described as “Order Entry Module”). In parallel, the
ability to see all that from one common medical record chart (a kind of
Orders Profile).
To my understanding, Procedures and Services is the OpenEMR way. As I
mentioned, having worked just for a week or so with OpenEMR, I might be
missing a great deal of functionality. If this is the case, forgive my
ignorance J
I will be in the neighborhood, and I will try to contribute in any possible
way.
Best Regards to all,
DIO
