Worked on a similar project for the navy a while back. Basically 535 medical facilities scattered around the globe. Each day they would submit a data file that could have one or multiple records for each patient.
I believe something like this could be built with wordpress as it is open source and provides all the security, etc, and you would simply need to define the tables, and develop the forms using php/mysql But, as the others have stated, I too have been burned badly on a project like this when out of concern for the patients, I presented an image that the contracting agency didn't want to see presented, which specifically was that files were not being processed, and there was no system in place to show us a daily status report showing the number of files received, the number of records processed, yada, yada, yada... Now, if ANY government agency wanted to contract with Keep America At Work, Inc. and do so in a manner where I could hire unemployable American software developers (many who are veterans), then, I would be interested in taking this on. And I say this tongue in cheek knowing full well, that this will not be an option. By the way, for those wondering why I made this offer, you might be interested in the latest article where I show the job increase, and the population increase for the last decade at: http://keepamericaatwork.com/?p=274637 Regards, Virgil On Thu, May 29, 2014 at 11:02 AM, Stephen Russell <[email protected]> wrote: > On Thu, May 29, 2014 at 10:48 AM, Dave Crozier <[email protected]> > wrote: > > > Quote: > > "It needs to use only open source, 100% standards-compliant, > > non-proprietary software" > > > > ... oh and it needs to cost nothing to be developed on the back of "When > > it's finished we can sell a lot of these..." > > > > Been there, got the EXPENSIVE teeshirt, never again! > > > > ---------------------------- > > > > > I saw the same line and got that same knot in my gut from an earlier gig. > > Really this cannot be resold because each care center probably has a system > that may be unique.
