Open Source EHRs Set to Grow

,----[ Quote ]
| On the surface, open source technology seems questionable -- software 
| engineers finagling with code and cobbling together a system that constantly 
| evolves from countless minds. In reality, open source is a viable option for 
| HIT, and its ability to retool and reshape rapidly may prove beneficial as 
| new technologies and health care innovations emerge.

CCHIT proposes three certification paths

,----[ Quote ]
| Some of the impetus for change stems from the open-source community. Leavitt 
| said feedback from a CCHIT-hosted forum in April showed open-source 
| developers are concerned with the cost of certification. As for meeting all 
| of CCHIT’s criteria, open-source developers run into licensing issues when 
| they attempt to include certain code sets, Leavitt added.

Healthcare Conference to Focus on Open Source Solutions

,----[ Quote ]
| Panels, presentations, and Birds of a Feather meetings are certainly the
| highlight of next month's Southern California Linux Expo (SCALE), but that's
| not the only thing happening during the event. The Demonstrating Open Source
| Health Care Solutions (DOHCS) conference will be co-located with SCALE and
| both will get underway on Friday, February 20, 2009.
