Overview of OpenEMR
- Frequently Asked Questions go here.
- The OpenEMR project website can be found at open-emr.org.
- The OEMR 501(c)(3) organization formed to promote and advance OpenEMR can be found at OEMR.ORG
- Note: the original non-profit organization OSMS (Open Source Medical Software) was unable to get 501(c)(3) status. A new more focused organization was created and has been granted full 501(c)(3) charitable status by the IRS effective July 14 2010. All donations are tax deductible. Thanks to Greg Neuman Law Firm for their assistance.
- Have a question to ask?
- The Roadmap tries to define what direction this project is going in the future.
