 The clinical GUI interface for VOE is primarily
 CPRS, we are also using 
 a couple of other components which have their own
 GUI like document 
 scanning etc. We have integrated EsiObjects to
 provide a web browser 
 patient registration capability.

 There is no online demo for VOE but you can get a

Pity.

I find that it is difficult to get people to look at
MUMPS. They all shy away from it. I have yet to meet
someone in asia who uses VistA and M or GT.M for that
matter.

Porting it into Java was being discussed sometime ago.
I guess that would be a difficult job?

 > Does this have a GUI interface?

That is a very broad question.the answer is not everything in VOE 
nor VistA has a GUI interface... the backend components like lab and 
pharmacy are role and scroll for the most part but if you are a 
provider of care you work in a GUI world.

The clinical GUI interface for VOE is primarily CPRS, we are also using 
a couple of other components which have their own GUI like document 
scanning etc. We have integrated EsiObjects to provide a web browser 
patient registration capability.

There is no online demo for VOE but you can get a good idea of what it 
is like by going to the online demo that the VA has:

Re: [openhealth] VistA Office EHR SemiVivA 2.3.1 released

2007-02-22 Thread Joseph Dal Molin

VOE like VistA has always had lab interfacing capabilitythe VA uses 
Labcorp and I think Questbut out of the box interfacing requires 
investing the time and money to make it work and the Beta process left 
that up to the sites and their vendors to accomplish. The beta test 
process followed a very "laissez faire" model and it was up to 
vendor/client to negotiate and fund what was configured or 
integrated unfortunately expectations in some case were not set 
accurately... and as a consequence we did lose a couple of sites.

Having said thatwe recognized the challenges of using "vanilla" 
VistA lab interfacing to satisfy CCHIT certification and in  meeting the 
needs of the target market for VOEso in parallel to the Beta testing 
a more generic approach was developed for interfacing using the Mirth 
integration engine. This enhancement will be part of VOE and is going 
through final quality assurance.

VOE is currently undergoing completion of SQA using the same standards 
as are used in the VA. This work will be completed toward the end of 
March. WorldVistA has submitted its application to certify the software 
under the CCHIT 2006 criteria...assuming all goes well successful 
certification will be announced in late April or very early May.

[openhealth] VistA Office EHR SemiVivA 2.3.1 released

2007-02-22 Thread K.S. Bhaskar
VistA Office EHR SemiVivA 2.3.1 (MD5 sum
16a0e6ae1951a512e88d83edd4e254a9) is available for downloading from
the WorldVistA project page at Source Forge
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/worldvista).

VistA Office EHR SemiVivA 2.3.1 packages the release of VistA Office
EHR 2.3.1 as made available at the VistA Office EHR project page at
Source Forge (http://sourceforge.net/projects/vista-officeehr) on
January 31, 2007.  Nancy Anthracite configured the settings for it to
run on GT.M, and provided the CPRS and Vitals executables (for
Windows).  An access code of VistAis#1 and verify code of #1isVistA
will work for CPRS to connect.

Please note that this software has not been field tested.
Furthermore, most of the components for VOE were introduced to none of
the usual VistA SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle) where packages
and patches of any complexity usually endure a number of iterations
between SQA (Software Quality Assurance) reviews, field testing and
developer responses.  This software is intended for evaluation /
demonstration purposes.  You take all responsibility for using it.

This SemiViVA package is bundled with GT.M V5.2-000, as available
under the GNU General Public License from the GT.M project page at
Source Forge (http://sourceforge.net/projects/sanchez-gtm). A SemiVivA
package is a one-step install of VistA and GT.M on a Linux machine.

Assuming the file has been downloaded as
/Distrib/VistAOfficeEHRSemiVivA_2.3.1.tgz, to install on your Linux
PC, execute the following, as root:

cd /usr/local
tar zxvf /Distrib/VistAOfficeEHRSemiVivA_2.3.1.tgz

This will create new directories /usr/local/VistAOfficeEHR_2.3.1 and
/usr/local/gtm_V5.2-000. Please note that this will overwrite any
directories or symbolic links you have with those names. You may wish
to replace your symbolic links with new ones (i.e., the following is
optional; also to be executed as root in /usr/local):

rm gtm ; ln -s gtm_V5.2-000 gtm
rm VistAOfficeEHR ; ln -s VistAOfficeEHR_2.3.1 VistAOfficeEHR

To use it, you will need to create a working environment (see
http://tinyurl.com/738jk for details). To create an environment in
~/myVistAOfficeEHR (the choice of directory name is entirely yours),
as a normal user, execute:

/usr/local/VistAOfficeEHR_2.3.1/install ~/myVistAOfficeEHR

Subsequently, to get to an interactive mode GT.M prompt in that
environment, execute:

~/myVistAOfficeEHR/gtm_V5.2-000/run

To run entryref ABC^DEF in that environment, execute:

~/myVistAOfficeEHR/gtm_V5.2-000/run ABC^DEF

To get a CPRS GUI to connect to the environment in ~/myVistAOfficeEHR,
you should set up inetd/xinetd to execute
~/myVistAOfficeEHR/gtm_V5.2-000/cprs_direct in response to a
connection request.  If you have set up inetd/xinetd to listen at port
P, then use "CPRSChart s=SYSTEM p=P CCOW=DISABLE" where SYSTEM is the
name or IP address of the VistA server.
