That's precisely how I would want a DSS to work for interfacing it with GNUmed. When I last looked at EGADSS (a year or so ago) it looked like they wanted me to use their own GUI not just for defining guidelines but also make the user use their GUI to check for guideline adherence of patients handed over from an EMR. IOW, I couldn't find any documentation on how to get instructions back into GNUmed.
