Are we talking about CDA- like standard exports of summarized patient data, or 
transactional transfers like lab results or radiology? I think having a 
CCD-compliant import/export tool for OpenMRS would be absolutely amazing... 
think of what that would mean for interoperability. Since most of the concepts 
in the CIEL dictionary have SNOMED and other standard maps, I can see us 
actually being able to accept a CCD from another EMR and have it be mapped into 
the OpenMRS dictionary and be actionable!

    integration of OpenMRS with a PACS radiology system, likely using
    HL7 and Mirth as the integration engine.  For this project, we are
    likely going to want to export and import Patient Demographics,
    Orders, Encounters, and Obs.  I'd definitely be interested in
    talking with you more about this if you are interested.
