The OpenHIE Implementation Guidebook (this document) has been designed to assist the OHIE Implementer's Network (OHIN) in efforts to establish an OpenHIE platform for their respective countries.
It is a work in progress and will be updated frequently so please check back often.
Please refer to the Child Pages below.
- How to Implement OpenHIE
- Minimum requirements
- Mine existing Implementation Guides
- Implementation patterns
- Rapid HIE Solution - “I need to implement HIE end-to-end but I only have 40 hours, what can I accomplish?”
- HIE-in-a-Box / Turnkey / Sandbox Solutions
- Virtual machines representing the core components of HIE pre-configured to be accessible out of the box. Using open source systems (e.g. OpenMRS, OpenHIM, OpenLIMS, OpenLMIS, MIRTH Connect, DHIS2, etc.)
- Use environments: Dev / Test / Training / Conferences
- Enterprise Solutions
- Microsoft Windows based platforms
- Not-necessarily-open-source
- MSSQL and Oracle-based SQL servers
- Commercial HL7 / FHIR tools
- Commercial EHRs
- HIE Capability Model (reduced or expanded based upon requirements)
- Core Functional Capabilities
- Clinical Enabling Capabilities
- Technical Enabling Capabilities
- Minimum Enabling Capabilities
- OpenHIE and Health Systems Mapping
- Potentially a foundation model of OpenHIE systems / components and which open source systems implement the OpenHIE architecture (i.e. Facilities Registry can be located in DHIS2).
