Well this is my first blog about a programming project I am working on “Integration of OpenMRS and DHISv2″
The objective of this integration project is – to develop module (s), both from DHIS 2 and OpenMRS side, to facilitate the exchange of information between DHIS2 and OpenMRS.
DHIS2, District Health Information Software version 2, is a health management information system which is targeted at the distributed collection and analysis of routine data, specifically for primary health care mainly at aggregate level (DHIS2). On the other hand OpenMRS, Open Medical Record System, is an application which enables design of a customized medical records system with no programming knowledge, i.e., OpenMRS is a common framework upon which medical informatics efforts in developing countries can be built in order to store patient level data in a very flexible and extended manner (OpenMRS).
Both systems, DHIS2 and OpenMRS, are built onto the philosophy of open source and Java technologies targeted for the context and use of Developing Countries. Both sharing the same technical framework and implementation contexts, they can be integrated to the maximum so that a complete and full-fledged health information system could be implemented for both the routine activities of patient treatment (OpenMRS) and the overall assessment of health system (DHIS2). And it is such an integrated system that my intention is aimed at building.
