OpenVistAŽ EHR in Midland

Posted by Ethan Waldo on Wednesday October 18, @03:05PM
from the Medsphere dept.
This article has a great write-up on Midland Memorial Hospital's use of Redhat Linux and Medsphere's OpenVistaŽ. Quoted from the article: "This year, Midland Memorial Hospital in Midland, Texas, became the first community hospital in the country to adopt Open Source-based electronic health records (EHR). The implementation reflects the emergence of Open Source alternatives in healthcare applications as well as the growing movement to computerize patient medical records to reduce costs and improve patient care." Editor's note: 10/19/06 The author of this Case Study is Medsphere's Vice President of Sales and marketing. Read Dr. Ho's comment about the article neglecting to mention that OpenVistAŽ is not Open Source.
