Musings of a West Texas Business Venture

eScribe

Although there are many different kinds of EMR's, we prefer software (and EMR systems) that runs on Linux.

Over the past three or four months, we have evaluated several products for a local clinic. One of the products that we discovered, but did not have a chance to test (although we did inquire about their products, but did not hear back from them) is eScribe.

I located this case study done by Capital Cardiology Associates (CCA), and Lille Corp, the developers of eScribe. The case study profiles moving their networks to linux, not the difference or ROI of the linux EMR, but it is still an interesting read. They claim (and I agree) that linux is about 37% cheaper, per-year, than the equivalent Windows network.

Unfortunately, I have not been able to find out very much about Lille Corp in the past few years. Their website has gone cold, and has not been updated in at least 3 years.
