Sounds like Eric hasnt heard of OpenVista.
Also, he is simplifying the problem. I agree with him - but there are some major factors in this problem that are more than just the simple "go open source" solution he seems to propose.
Namely, it's about how organizations have made decisions and their ENTIRE WORKFLOW is designed around the EHR app they use.
- niels_olson 16y agoWe have got to stop talking about VistA. It casts a cloud over the whole conversation. Look at what's coming out of the Regenstrief Institute. They built some of the original VistA components (like CHCS) and have built other systems from the ground up, like OpenMRS.
- phlux 16y agoMy point was he spoke as though there were no efforts on open source EHR. The fact is, that there is a lot of work going on - what is needed is actual leadership.
