Hi Tim, DSTC currently has an openEHR based electronic health record system. The system was built for the Brisbane Southside HealthConnect trial.
We are currently taking a system that was built for a project and turning it into a product. This means removing the Brisbane Southside assumptions out of the system so that it can be easily deployed in other contexts. We currently have two reference sites for its system, one in the south of Brisbane focussed on diabetes and one in the north of Brisbane focussed on coordinated care. If you have a project you would like to suggest for an openEHR system, we are always interested in hearing from people who would like to learn more about openEHR.

Our situation is that we admire the openEHR model and think that it is basically sound, and have played with the openEHR archetype editing tools, which seem adequate for the task. We'd like to have a go at creating some draft archetypes for use in the public health domain, but in the absence of an openEHR storage engine, either open source or proprietary, we don't really see the point except as an armchair thought experiment. We don't have the resources to build and validate a storage engine of our own (the building doesn't look too hard; validation is the bit that looks like it would consume a lot of resources). Any advice for us on how (or when) we should proceed?
