Are there ways in the openEMR system to report for MACRA/ MU, PQRS measures? I am new to this system and need some guidance.
cmswest wrote on Friday, January 13, 2017:
hi Paul, there will be in the future once OpenEMR v5.0 becomes CEHRT (any day now). For now you would have to use a registry or submit via claims for PQRS.

Can you please provide more details on how to use openEMR with QCDRs to avoid MACRA penalties or even qualify.
cmswest wrote on Monday, February 20, 2017:
it will probably depend on what QCDR you are using
most likely they will be glad to work with any provider that uses OpenEMR

Thanks Stephen that realy helped.
But why would they be “glad to work with OpenEMR”? does OpenEMR have sort of a “competitive advantage” over other EHR systems?

So, since it is MU2 certified, can we use “v5” to certify under MACRA now?

Hi Amir,
What is your operating system and which OpenEMR package are you using (xampp vs. zip vs. deb etc.)?

Hi Amir,
What is your specific operating system (ie. Ubuntu 16.04 etc)?

Hey Brady checkout below
- DB Server: Ubuntu 5.5.44-0ubuntu0. 14.04.1
- Web Server: Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu)
- PHP Version: 5.5.9-1ubuntu4.11

Need mcrypt php module.
In command line do:
sudo apt-get install php5-mcrypt
Check out here for other package dependencies for OpenEMR in Ubuntu:
http://www.open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/OpenEMR_System_Architecture#Ubuntu.2C_Mint_and_Debian_.28PHP_5.29_.28With_MySQL_or_MariaDB.29
For future, note it’s easier to use the ubuntu package, which then brings in all needed dependencies:
http://www.open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/OpenEMR_5.0.0_Ubuntu-Debian_Package_Installation_with_PHP5
(note we have separate packages for PHP7 and PHP5; the above link is for PHP5 which you are using)

Hey Brady,
Still not working. Do you think i should upgrade to Ubuntu 16.04
bradymiller wrote on Wednesday, March 01, 2017:
Hi Amir,
Ubunut 14.04 should be just fine. I am assuming you ran ‘sudo apt-get install php5-mcrypt’ without errors; let me know if that is not the case. Also need to ensure you then restart apache service:
sudo service apache2 restart

Hi Brady
Yes it installed without errors and i did restart apache2 after that, do you thing i should try reinstalling OpenEMR? install a new site i mean.
By the way I just patched to v5.01 today
bradymiller wrote on Thursday, March 02, 2017:
Hi Amir,
If things are working for you (except for the mcrypt), may be able to fix without a reinstall(if end up doing a reinstall, then would rec the ubuntu package linked above). Let me know whether you are using mysql or mariadb, then I’ll give you a 1 line command to install all the dependencies; then should work after restarting apache.
Also, if this is a production instance, definitely do backups while doing this stuff.

Hi Brady
All working just fine except for the mcrypt.
However i ran into what seems to be a BUG at the priscription screen which is;
When you click on “click here to search” link and after you are able to find the drug … if you click on the “click here to search” link one more time… you will be logged out of OpenEMR completely!
bradymiller wrote on Saturday, March 04, 2017:
Hi Amir,
Sounds like there are still some dependencies possible missing. What do you see if you do:
mysql --version
(this will let me know whether you are using ‘mysql’ or ‘mariadb’ and can then provide you a command to install all the required dependencies)
