For those in Ontario (Canada), our province actually outlines exactly what an EMR should do, the format the input and outputs should be, and defines how data must be imported & exported. It's actually not bad as far as specs go. There are about 16 or so certified EMRs in Ontario that have to meet the requirements to be sold to hospitals and docs.

For aspiring devs out there who want to build an EMR and aren't sure where to start, implement this spec. I'm sure it'll overlap with many requirements that US health agencies might need. Except for complex billing with an array of insurance companies, but that's for another thread :)
