Surely this would best be done within the context of a PM/EMR system?
OpenEMR is popular for smaller practices and is easily extensible.

Can the laptops connect to a common network? That would be much
better than trying to synchronize databases (and coping with the
associated security/backup issues).

That leads me to ask: does the AMA claim copyright on the CPT codes
themselves, or just on the descriptions of the codes? If the latter,
I think there would be a lot of merit in a community project to
create and maintain new descriptions. I've been told that the AMA's

OpenEMR will have a long-awaited release out in the next couple of days.
I have a list of about 70 improvements, but here are some highlights:
* New frame-based layout for improved workflow
Don't you think that a handheld device in the waiting room would tend
to disappear?
I would suggest a browser-based kiosk solution, which would surely
also lead to an option for the patient to fill in their medical
history from home.

Interesting article, but I'm not sure its conclusions are on-target.
The data model is more a symptom than an underlying cause of the problem.
In my view the key point is that we cannot trust the existing
"custodians" of medical IT to get it right. They haven't come close
yet. The only way we

I'm curious... this seems very VistA-centric. Is any attention
being given to other open source solutions like OpenEMR, FreeMed
and ClearHealth?
Incidentally I'm one of the OpenEMR developers (in California, so
would not be able to attend).
Thanks,

For those of you using OpenEMR, or who would use it "if only it

I wanted to let you know I'm organizing a method where multiple

If I may jump in for a moment... I think the point is not to throw
away testing, but rather that testing is not a substitute for having
top-notch software developers and a well-managed development process.
Without that, testing will only reveal one show-stopping bug after
another for as long as yo

Don't forget OpenEMR which has been around for quite a while and has
seen a great deal of activity and user-contributed improvements over
the past year.
Indeed one of its greatest strengths is the ability of users to easily
create or sponsor new features that are important to them.
