Re: The Contenders
by jeff on Tuesday March 11, @04:48PM
FreeMED was noticably missing from the list. Though it is missing a downloadable tarball, it is quite stable, and is in use in several locations. (The lack of tarball is due to many fast changes in the API, which would have broken existing installations.) It is radically advanced from the last released version, and the FreeMED team is preparing a release of "0.6.0", which is currently in feature-freeze.

It has a highly advanced EMR, billing and scheduling systems, and a modular architecture, as well as XML-RPC services for connection with both GUI frontends and other programs. The released version will also be able to be HIPAA-compliant (according to the released HIPAA standards).

The homepage is http://freemedsoftware.com/, which should be coming online again in a day or so. (It was being redesigned.)

There is a workable demo available, as well as a commercial support infrastructure for FreeMED. People interested in the demo should contact jeff@ourexchange.net, and people interested in the commercial support of FreeMED should contact irv@ourexchange.net.

There is also a variant based on an earlier version, called "FreeMED-YiRC", created by Joe Thielen. The homepage for that project is http://freemed-yirc.familyandyouth.org/, and features an EMR system designed specifically for youth in residential care settings.
