OpenMRS

PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS

‍

Modular, Extensible Architecture

Leverage OpenMRS’s pluggable modules (forms, programs, reporting, cohort tools) to rapidly prototype and iterate on clinical workflows without rebuilding core EMR functions.

‍

Modern OpenMRS 3 UX

Adopt the latest microfrontend-based UI for faster, cleaner clinician experiences (visit dashboards, patient charts, orders, vitals) and customizable app shells per site or program.

‍

FHIR-Enabled Interoperability

Expose and consume data via FHIR (through the FHIR module) to integrate with AI services, analytics pipelines, registries, and external systems alongside REST APIs.

‍

Configurable Clinical Forms & Programs

Design point-of-care forms (HTML Form Entry/JSON) and program workflows for triage, chronic disease management, and research protocols — with versioning and form libraries.

‍

Terminology & Concepts at Scale

Standardize data using concept dictionaries and mappings (e.g., SNOMED CT, LOINC, ICD-10) via the concept dictionary and optional OCL (Open Concept Lab) alignment.

‍

Cohorts, Reporting & Data Exports

Create dynamic cohorts and scheduled reports; export flat files or FHIR bundles to support population studies, dashboards, and downstream RWE analytics.

‍

Offline-Ready & Resource-Conscious

Operational in low-connectivity environments with sync-friendly patterns and lightweight deployment footprints — ideal for pilots and distributed field sites.

‍

Secure, Role-Based Access

Granular roles and privileges for clinicians, researchers, and admins; integrates with modern auth (incl. OIDC gateways) for auditability and least-privilege access.

‍

Deployment Flexibility

Package for on-prem or cloud with Docker/Kubernetes; connect to common relational backends and observability stacks for scalable operations and testing sandboxes.

‍

Ecosystem Compatibility

Interoperate with adjacent open-source health tools (e.g., OpenHIM, DHIS2, OpenELIS/Bahmni distributions) to extend lab, reporting, and supply workflows when needed.
