the picture of the OpenSDE or whatever  looks like it would be great

as an emr system for 4th year medical students who are learning structured

history and examination . Probably may be a bit tedious in real life to enter

all the structured fields necessary for a given system problem .

I only use 2 systems regularly, MD and Genie, and MD is definitely easier to

use than genie . Genie seems to rely too much on popup windows, 

which can easily get hidden behind other windows, and aren't easy to retrieve

from a tab bar or task bar .

Lately, I'm wondering if the vendor of genie is getting bored

because there's been changes like changing the color of the appointments seen

box from green to mauve, a notes button that needs to be clicked in order

to enter notes, but otherwise the pathology , radiology ordering and

the letter writer is fairly similiar, although MD seems to have easier to access

forms via the letter writer. Annoying part about the genie letter writer is that

one can't make changes to autogenerated items like medication lists,

and both don't let changes done in the letter writer update the patient record .

(this would require some sort of parser probably).

Results attachments for letters have to be manually printed it seems as well, but

this functionality should be realized once electronic referral to specialists come in

with argus, ( I hope).
