from the health-IT failures. dept. Launched with great fanfare in May of 2008, according to this announcement, Google Health will stop taking new data January 2012, continue to allow data access and then cease operations January 2013: "...Now, with a few years of experience, we’ve observed that Google Health is not having the broad impact that we hoped it would. There has been adoption among certain groups of users like tech-savvy patients and their caregivers, and more recently fitness and wellness enthusiasts. But we haven’t found a way to translate that limited usage into widespread adoption in the daily health routines of millions of people. That’s why we’ve made the difficult decision to discontinue the Google Health service. We’ll continue to operate the Google Health site as usual through January 1, 2012, and we’ll provide an ongoing way for people to download their health data for an additional year beyond that, through January 1, 2013. Any data that remains in Google Health after that point will be permanently deleted..." Read More... Submit this to FSDaily!

Posted by Jack Cahn MD on Saturday August 20, @12:20PMfrom the dept. It's official! OpenEMR has passed all ONC certification tests as a fully qualified emr that can be used to attest for incentive moneys. The official posting: http://onc-chpl.force.com/ehrcert/EHRProductDetail?id=a0X30000003mNwTEAU&retURL= appeared on the website 2011/08/19. Congratulations to all involved! OpenEMR 4.1 should be ready for download in a few weeks. This accomplishment is an amazing feat for an open source project, requiring many, many hours of interpretation of standards, coding, bug fixes, testing, and not least of all many thousands of dollars in fundraising to certify a product which has no corporate ownership and no financial return on that investment. It is LAMP based software that is free to use and inexpensive to run; hardware requirements are minimal. If you haven't seen us in a while, please visit at "http://www.open-emr.org" and the supporting organization "http://www.oemr.org" for more information.
