Active Projects

Overview

This is a listing of currently important active projects. This is a place to see what's going on, and also a place to see where help is needed by other developers and testers.

Calendar

Multi-facility bugs

Description of bugs:

1. Things work great with one facility
2. With two facility the bugs appear (different bugs happen with the $GLOBALS['restrict_user_facility'] turned off(default) and on)
3. When $GLOBALS['restrict_user_facility'] is turned off get following behavior. In essence the calendar only shows what is set as 'default facility' in the users settings. If you choose the facility then that user won't be available. By choosing all facilities, it will actually show all appointments from all facilities, however the scrollbar display is confusing (shows the top item), and unable to schedule an appt at anything but in the scroll bar; this also screws up what you see when scrolling through new days.
4. When $GLOBALS['restrict_user_facility'] is turned on, then only seems to work right if you place all facilities in the users settings 'Schedule facilities'. Then everything seems to work fine, but there is no option to view all facilities, which seems like should be an option. If you don' t place all facilities in the users 'schedule facilities', then you'll see other appointments at other disallowed facilties like they are on the selected on (not much of a bug since appointments shouldn' be scheduled on disallowed facilities anyways), however can only add to the allowed facility, which is good.

Seems like the bug(s) really stem from three mechanisms:

1. When choose all facilities, don't then highlight the item below it; highlight them all and that have this supported when click other buttons (moving days or adding appt)
2. With global restrict_user_facility off (default) allow users to be scheduled at all facilities.
3. With global restrict_user_facility on give option to show all facilties in calendar.

Currently linked to this tracker item and this forum thread.

Awaiting a Developer to fix this bug.

Recurring appointment bugs

This problem is discussed in this forum thread and this forum thread.

Bug described in good detail by Gayll in this bug tracker item: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2963714&group_id=60081&atid=493001

Awaiting a Developer to fix this bug.

Clinical Decision Rules (CDR) Engine

Integrate Plans into the Admin GUI

Implement plan/rule mapping in the Admin GUI for CDR. Note this simply involves creating a screen that allows mapping of rules to plans via the 'clinical_plans_rules' mysql table (as the other rules, do not show or allow mods of the cqm rules and plans)(also, note that a rule can be in multiple plans). This would be an extremely useful feature for little time, and allows physicians to view rules by plans in the Patient Summary Clinical Reminder widget Edit button (Plans tab).

Awaiting Developer to fully analyze and implement this.

Integrate Procedures into the Admin GUI

Implement procedure filter/target creation in the Admin GUI for CDR. Note the CDR engine currently supports this (see the Coumadin rule for an example) and this feature is gonna be in high demand for users that want to create rules via the Admin GUI that involve procedures.

Awaiting Developer to fully analyze and implement this.

Provider bug fix for per-provider reporting

This is fully discussed at Description_AMC#Patient.28s.29_selection and Description_AMC#Potential_Issues (Issue #1).

Awaiting Developer to fix this bug.

Improve Performance

A page tracking this project can be found at CDR Performance.

Awaiting Further Testing/Reporting.

Diagnostic Coding

Integrating ICD10

See ICD10 Diagnostic Codes Development for details.

Awaiting Developer to fully analyze and implement this.

Integrating SNOMED

See SNOMED Diagnostic Codes Development for details.

Awaiting Developer to fully analyze and implement this.

Internationalization

Date formatting

Still work to do in order to support date formats across multiple languages. Here's the forum thread discussing this.

Awaiting a Analyzer to figure out a good plan for this.

Translation database maintenance/improvement

We currently have a stable collaborative system in place to allow translation of any language. The translations are entered into a OpenEMR Translation Google Doc Spreadsheet. These instructions and scripts (README files describes the pipeline in detail) then allows conversions of the translation spreadsheet to mysql tables and allow detection and insertion of new english constants into the translation spreadsheet.

A new set of official translation tables are created daily.

Bradymiller is maintaining this.

Security

Security Vulnerability Assessment and Fixing

This project is active and has been moved to its own wiki tracking page at Codebase Security.

Awaiting Developers to continue implementing this project.
