Hi, I hope someone here can help me out. I work for a university division which is trying to asist small rural health clinics in adopting computerized record keeping. We are currently supporting versions of CVDEMS and CDEMS, which are MS-Access based and run under Windows. These are used just to collect basic chart information and track lab tests and vital stats. My boss has asked me to gather some information on VistA. It seems that it may be way too much for the needs of small offices, but I'm not sure. I gather there is to be a VistALite or VistAOffice version which might be more appropriate.
All the information I can find via Google seems to assume one already knows all the basics. Is there someone who could give me a short overview in simple (or even not so simple) English of how Vista works, especially regarding hardware and software needs. I gather that it runs only on Linux? I found the demo which runs on Windows. Is there a Windows client for "real" VistA that connects to a Linux server? What exactly would be needed to implement VistA in a small medical office environment? Thanks in advance for any help you can give. Mary ~~~~~ Mary E.
