I am working with Allscripts and there is a solution to link it to the openEMR but at the moment to only windows application….we are still discussing. You can call me if you like and I can update you details of my efforts. sraj49@fairoaksehrlive.com.
OpenEMR Support, LLC is currently developing a direct connection with SureScripts. We have already completed the OpenEMR GUI portion with drug-drug, drug-allergy, drug-food, drug-disease interaction checking. This is in the final stages of QA. The drug database uses the Lexi-comp database.
We are in the final stages of completing an E-Prescribing module that currently does new prescriptions, cancel prescriptions and refill prescriptions. This portion is also nearing completion and is likely to be finished in the first week of March.
What has been slowing us down the most is the bureaucracy of dealing with SureScripts. Currently they have frozen new applications until they can get a new version of their software installed.and are not planning on letting us to move forward on prescription history, insurance formulary, and changing prescriptions and April or after.
Is the code something that can be checked into CVS so that some of us can review and start learning the required changes? Also in the last part of your message, “not planning on letting us move foward on …” are you saying they are starting to restrict certain functions in the interface they are offering?
I left out “until” April or after. They have a “level 3” certificationwhich allows the functionality that is close to being finished. The latter three items is what they refer to as “level 7” certification. We fall into the “new client” category and they want to get their new software in place before they allow us further progress.
I am trying to get the code checked into the SVN for review.

This code allow you to Single sign on to RelayHealth’s portal. They just released a promotion to discount the e-prescribing module to us for 3 months. There is a release in the works that will allow the web service to log into a patient account in RelayHealth and e-prescribe without searching a patient. Let me know if you want to see a demo. We have over 60 clients using this now. This was the solution for our providers to capture the 2% medicare bonus for 2009 and 2010.
