Re: Consolidation Proposal: ClearHealth, FreeMED and OpenEMR
by Dr. Richard M. Cadwell on Thursday June 23, @04:02PM

I spent months looking at billing/EMP programs for our 2 doc office. If we were both MD's or Both DC's or DO's ... ad nausem, it would have been simple. I thought that Free-med would have been a viable solution. There were two major ddrawbacks. The first was a time frame I was n=being pushed at. The second and much more importantly is that I am not a programmer ( basic don't count here ). It was the second that forced us into what i still consider an ill considered purchase of PMSI from a company that will not honor their contract nor provide product training or support when a disagreement ensued. I mention this because like PMSI, Free-Med was programmer but not user friendly and the EMR was so far beyond my skills it was ludicrious ( like my spelling, ha, ha). I see the consolidation on THIS IDEA an excellent opportunity to turn a program that so far appeals best to the techie, not the doc who really needs simething that is user friendly, not impossible to adapt to another practice framework like Integrative Care or Chiropractic - the A&P is the same folks... I do engourage the seperate projects to work together and show the M$ types that open source community can and does do a better job. Together we ARE strong. Make it so with the code too. Thank you for your patience in this and I welcome any help or feedback with PMSI, EMR templates. In Service to Health, Richard M. Cadwell, DC, Dip. NBCE
