Hi Afie, I agree with you that the financial module is not complete. It will get there soon, give them sometime. If you really urgently need a complete financial module which can interact with Care2x directly, I can recommend you to you ebizframe from ESS of India which we have integrate it with Care2x by writing a module to the name, days in the ward, services being used - such as lab, radiology and etc, and then charge directly to Ebizframe POS module. But this product will not be an open source product but it is cost effective to use and an open architecture solution. So the marriage care2x and ebizframe is beautiful.
Care2x team has been doing an excellent job and I know it takes time to have a stabilized HIS application that can be use in real running healthcare organization. I believe that they will be there soon . My advised is, do get ready your own programmers just in case a "hick-up" occur especially where socket programming involve. All you guys have a good day ahead.

Hi, I totally agree with Eduardo, financial module is a very important / basic feature that a hospital application must have. I have experience in developing, implementing and maintaining an integrated hospital information system in Indonesia, its more concentrate on financial / administration aspects. When I try Care2x I found that it has totally different features that my application doesn't have. It's more concentrate on medical aspects, which is less important in my country where doctors and nurses rarely use computer. I noticed that financial issue has been discussed several times. One of the interesting issues was to integrate or not to integrate financial module to Care2x. In my opinion integration is a must; otherwise there are too many double entry of transaction. I know that this is not an easy job; different country has its own different system. In Indonesia I can even confirm that different hospital has different financial / charging system. I propose to construct Care2x financial module as add-on module but still integrated with core application, so different site can implement different financial module. Interest group of developers can be created based on financial system similarity. Regards, Afie --- "Ing.
