The un-official, Draft 7 of the upcoming American Medical Informatics Association Open Source
Working Group white paper to be voted on November 9th-11th can be found here. Again it will be voted on for ratification on November 9th-11th or so. Action is needed on your part to answer the question: If open source is so great why is no one using it? There is no aggregate data that I can find to counter this opinion. If you know of a Free/Open Source EHR/EMR deployment and could please send three pieces of information on each deployment that you have by Wednesday November 5th: General Location, software version and most importantly NUMBER OF PATIENTS IN SYSTEM. This paper could have national impact with this data. Please respond by email to ivaldes@hal-pc.org if you are able to obtain this data.
