Hello fellow OpenMRS developers! My name is Wesley Brown and I am writing on behalf of the OpenHMIS team to get some feedback on the design for our Registration Module. The OpenHMIS Registration Module is the entry point of the data for all of our patient-related activities. All forthcoming OpenHMIS modules that deal with patient data will rely on this registration module in some fashion, if only for the data that is collected. As such, the registration module functionality will likely grow to support the additional interfaces and requirements over time.
The features that will be included in our initial release are: - Gather Patient Registration Details - Support Multiple Registration Queues (e.g. Inpatient, Outpatient, etc) - Gather Patient Visit History - Patient Visit Slip Generation - Support Flexible Patient Queries - Patient Data Lifetime - Registration Notifications - Support for Patient Sponsorship - Appointment Scheduling - Patient Record Accessibility Each of these features is discussed in more depth on our wiki page: https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/OpenHMIS+-+Registration+Module The OpenHMIS code is currently hosted at github: https://github.com/OpenHMIS/registration Note that the features above have not yet been implemented so there isn't very much in the way of code to look at. It seems like there are a number of groups working on adding more robust registration capabilities to OpenMRS, as well as other hospital management features. I have heard of at least two: a group from PIH and a group from AMPATH. However I have not been able to find any public information about their progress or overall design. Has there been any discussion about collaborating with each other so that we don't duplicate our efforts and end up with a bunch of fragmented HMIS modules? If not, is there any interest to do so? We would also like to get some feedback from the OpenMRS development community and hopefully utilize existing work rather than reinvent the wheel. Thanks! -Wes Brown _________________________________________ To unsubscribe from OpenMRS Developers' mailing list, send an e-mail to lists...@listserv.iupui.edu with "SIGNOFF openmrs-devel-l" in the body (not the subject) of your e-mail.
