OpenEMR Contributed Forms

Elements Of A New Form

Note there are a large number of forms that can be found within the OpenEMR package at openemr/contrib/forms directory. This area is used to post visit and other kinds of medical record related forms that OpenEMR Contributors wish to share. Please follow the basic guidelines below for a new form:

  • A link to a page with these elements:
  • A complete description of the forms intended purpose and target user.
  • Indication of skills level required for installation.
  • Detailed installation instructions.
  • Specific configuration and removal instructions.
  • A screen shot of the form.
  • A compressed ZIP or TAR.GZ file containing all the required components.
  • The contributor signature.

Installing A Form

  1. Files in the mentioned directory need to be installed in another directory.
  2. Do a copy => paste from openemr/contrib/forms/your_desired_form_directory to openemr/interface/forms/your_desired_form_directory
  3. Verify that your_desired_form is in the openemr/interface/forms folder before registering. If running AWS package ensure apache ownership permission is applied recursively to directory, for example, the assessment_intake form from the sudo bash shell, # chown -R apache interface/forms/assessment_intake/
  4. Go to your favourite Web browser and open OpenEMR. From Administration/Other/Forms; register, activate_db and make active the desired form. Video tutorial, below, on registration begins at 3:50.
  5. Open an Encounter form for a patient.
  6. Click on the tab, Administration, Miscellaneous, Clinical or whatever name you chose for the tab.
  7. Click on the desired form to open it.

Removing A Form

  • Delete the once desired form from openemr/interface/forms.
  • Delete the form from the database. If you are unfamiliar working with the database, disable the form by following the directions in the next paragraph. A false step in the database can make your copy of OpenEMR non-functional.
  • It is always safer to inactivate a form than it is to delete it. A form that falls out of favor may acquire a new luster down the road. Clicking "enable" will disable the form, thus retiring it for the time being. It will be merely one click to bring it back into service instead the more laborious process outlined in the prior section.

List of Forms

  • Forms, followed by an asterisk (*), have been pre-installed and registered. They are ready for use.
  • Forms, followed by an exclamation point (!), have been pre-installed but unregistered. They have to be registered before use.
  • Pics of most forms viewable on separate page at '(pic)' link; only forms not active by default. Some forms did not install or register so I couldn't get a pic of them.- Harley MI-Squared.
