Which EMR System? (Part Three)
OpenEMR is probably our favorite package of the three, but the User Interface is almost impossible to navigate. OpenEMR uses FreeB version 1, which they have brought in-house and maintain (to some degree) as part of OpenEMR. The main developers, including Rod Roark of Sunset System, are quite helpful on the message boards, and the project is based on PHP4 (moving to PHP5) and MySQL 4 or 5. The software is hosted at SourceForge, and integrates seamlessly with SQL-Ledger.However, after a few weeks of working with OpenEMR, we could not get used to the Interface, and FreeB would not connect to the database, so we were not able to actually perform any billing functions. I'm not sure what commercial support from one of the developers would cost, but Rod's pricing appears reasonable.
