Dudes …

With new capabilities such as multiple practice functionality, role-based access, and a flexible reporting period, the v4.0 release expands the use case to quality measure reporting for multiple healthcare providers, allowing popHealth to be used by organizations such as state healthcare organizations. The v4.0 release is also certified as a 2014 Edition EHR module for clinical quality measure (CQM) reporting (CHPL Certification ID: IG-3687-16-001 and IG-3687-16-0002).

It seems that OSEHRA VistA is a fork of VistA.

The last time I test drove VistA in 2009, it was simply awful (& ugly).

Would be very, very embarrassing if VistA is not 2014 CEHRT.

Give me yet-to-be certified OpenEMR + Hardship Exception any day.

Interesting that the Peace Corps chose OE & not VistA.

This has nothing to do with VistA. They adopted the PopHealth Project, it’s general CQM certified for MU-2 for use standalone or interfaced to other EMR.

They are, essentially, a bunch of tiny clinics. VistA is for Hospitals. Only VA clinics try and use it for phyiscian practice…

I guess I’ll be looking over our pophealth site now to see what is up.
