Hey all, Just FYI: There's an OpenMRS "Immersion" meeting happening at OutBox today at 5pm. See below.
Apparently there are also some related upcoming events (Implementors Conference Dec 6-9 and Hackathon Dec 10-11) This, to me, is great news. The government is going Open Source for its electronic medical records system.
