titleWelcome to the Shared Health Record Community

The OpenHIE Shared Health Record

projects

Community (OHIE-SHR) aims to enable the collection and storage of electronic health information about individual

patients

patients in a centralised repository which is capable of being shared across different healthcare settings

Key activities of this initial phase are to perform a critical review of the architecture and technologies used in the development of the RHEA implementation of the SHR components, as well as a comprehensive review of alternatives, to ensure due diligence.  

Initially, the SHR and the Interoperability Layer discussions took place on one call as the overall approach and methodology was discussed, but from May 2013 these are now two separate calls which alternate on a weekly basis. PLEASE NOTE THAT THE PARTICIPANT CODE FOR THE SHR CALL HAS CHANGED - See access code below.

The two working documents for capturing requirements, use cases and design are:

There is also a  Github repository, which are intended as open collaborative work spaces for all interested parties to add to this work.

    . We provide a forum for discussion and knowledge sharing. 

    We envision a world where systems for integrating, storing, sharing and managing complex clinical data are made less complex through collaborative communities and open software.

    Our mission is to nurture, grow and sustain an open community of practice to discuss, document and design a shared health record as well as develop a reference software application that enables:

    • Storage of normalized data from disparate systems to eliminate redundancies and ensure data integrity;
    • Integrated storage of a longitudinal, person-centric electronic health record ;
    • Sharing of that data among disparate systems in order to support improved care delivery;
    • Improved access to good quality information for reporting and decision-making purposes

    Our values

    • We seek to understand and address the functional requirements of our user community
    • We strive for simplicity over complexity in designing solutions
    • We value open community processes, including collaboration and transparency
    • We seek sustainable approaches to supporting both our community and the technology to ensure the longevity of our solutions
    • We aim to leverage the most relevant, appropriate and current message exchange standards.
    • We use the “adopt, adapt, develop” approach to inform our decision-making process for standards and technology
    • We strive to enable semantic interoperability
    • We are implementation-driven and aim to provide real solutions to real problems, particularly in low-resource settings

    titleTechnical Documentation - Our Tool

    The Shared Health Record application developed by this community is OpenSHR, a tool based on OpenMRS and currently implemented in Rwanda as part of the RHIE.  

    Plans for current development activities can be seen on the roadmap and all the supporting technical documentation is available here:
