Standards-Based, Open-Source Electronic Health Record Systems: A Desirable Future for the U.S. Health Industry
Telemedicine and e-Health, 04/29/08
Yellowlees PM et al. - Open-source software, a great success in other information-intensive industries, is one possible solution to these problems, and may help integrate a functional EHR system into, and across, more health systems and clinics because of the greater potential for local customization. We believe that the advantages of an open-source EHR system outweigh the costs of a more traditional, proprietary EHR system, and recommend that more work be done to advance an interoperable open-source EHR system in the United States. Open-source EHR systems have the potential to improve healthcare in the United States as they have done in many other areas around the world.
