OpenMRS Core - EHR Platform API & Web App
The core API and web application platform for the OpenMRS Electronic Health Record (EHR) system. Provides fundamental data models, services, and user interface components for building and deploying healthcare applications.
Project Introduction
Summary
OpenMRS Core is the foundational component of the OpenMRS platform, providing the essential backend API and a basic web application for managing core clinical data. It serves as the base upon which modules and implementations are built.
Problem Solved
Developing robust, flexible, and standards-based Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems from scratch is complex and resource-intensive. OpenMRS Core provides a foundational platform to accelerate the creation and deployment of such systems, especially in low-resource settings.
Core Features
Patient Management API
Core services and data models for managing patient demographics, visits, encounters, and observations.
Concept Dictionary & Terminology
Centralized management of medical concepts, diagnoses, procedures, and medications.
Modular Architecture
Framework for developing and integrating custom modules and extensions.
Security and User Management
Role-based access control and audit logging for security and compliance.
Tech Stack
