Current EHR Challenges -

The existing EHR provider applications (totaling about 900) and all delivery systems have the following critical issues and serious problems:

• Physicians, Hospitals and other Healthcare workers complain that the applications are limited in reporting the total condition of patients and cannot accommodate what all healthcare workers see, hear, feel and sense what is going on with their patients, their history of all ailments and how diagnoses are influenced by other conditions and medications. These are categorized as EHR application operational problems.
• Physicians complain that the applications are time consuming, cannot be matched against prior ailments and older visits and take valuable time away from patient care.
• The intraoperative capabilities are nonexistent.
• There are documentation, privacy and security failures that lead to compliance concerns.
• Patients cannot see and review their health files, nor request that they be sent to other physicians, clinics or hospitals.
• Death and maiming is continuing to occur at alarming rates.
• Loopholes have driven costs to unheard of levels because of unneeded and unwarranted tests and procedures by hospitals.
• The single major problem with all EHRs is Interoperability. 

OpenMRS Introduction

OpenMRS is a collaborative open source project to develop software to support the delivery of health care in developing countries. 

OpenMRS is founded on the principles of openness and sharing of ideas, software and strategies for deployment and use. The system is designed to be usable in very resource poor environments and can be modified with the addition of new data items, forms and reports without programming. It is intended as a platform that many organizations can adopt and modify avoiding the need to develop a system from scratch.

The OpenMRS code is based on a 'concept dictionary' that describes all the data items that can be stored in the system such as clinical findings, laboratory test results or socio-economic data. This approach avoids the need to modify the database structure to add new diseases. An important feature of OpenMRS is its modular construction which allows the programming of new functions without modifying the core code. OpenMRS is web based but can be deployed on a single laptop or on a large server and runs across platforms. 

OpenMRS & AtomicDB

We believe that OpenMRS (Medical Record System) brings significant additional value to the entire data center ecosystem far beyond traditional value proposition. The global OpenMRS community works together to build the world's leading open source enterprise electronic medical record system platform.

AIS Corp. will be integrating AtomicDB with OpenMRS. The global OpenMRS community works together to build the world's leading open source enterprise electronic medical record system platform. Its mission is to contribute to the improvement of health care delivery and the health of communities. 

This would allow seamless integration of multiple data systems into an EHR practice access system accessible instantly by many different medical professionals & medical groups.

The OpenMRS Universal EHR Solution offers a range of intelligent solutions and services that support the clinical, financial needs of organizations of all sizes, including hospitals, physician practices, laboratories, ambulatory centers, behavioral health centers, cardiac facilities, radiology clinics, surgery centers, extended care facilities, retail pharmacies, and employer sites.

One of the very powerful yet simple concepts to be introduced will be the Horizontal Screen navigation capability. One of the more aggravating operational problems most Doctors face is the endless switching between different screens in a vertical manner. Our new design will allows caregiver to have a ‘Birdseye’ view of all the screens simultaneously.

OpenMRS & AtomicDB Architecture

With the integration of AtomicDB into OpenMRS, we will be able to offer a total secure solution allowing for the evaluations, correlation and analysis of all potential effects on the patients as well as monitoring cost and performance metrics on the fly. The truly amazing thing here, is the system is completely and totally customizable on the fly as well and can integrate with any known systems including outside security systems, network, management, order and delivery schedules, human Resources, accounting, Billing, Insurance correlation, payments taxes and even the dramatic justification and simplification of research grant and or construction grants.
