Compliance with India's EHR standards

amolbk · January 28, 2017, 5:02pm

Government of India recently (December 2016) notified updated Electronic Health Records (EHR) Standards.

From website: http://mohfw.nic.in/ -> Documents -> EHR Standards for India 2016. Direct link: http://mohfw.nic.in/showfile.php?lid=4138

Any info on OpenMRS/Bahmni’s compliance with the standards?

I had started reading the document about 2 weeks back. Still in progress… Will share my observations / thoughts once I am done. Hopefully in another few days. Meanwhile, if anyone else also has thoughts, will be glad to hear.

This link works for me: http://mohfw.nic.in/showfile.php?lid=4138

For being able to search text in the PDF, I had to download the document and open it on a native PDF viewer.

It doesn’t open for me at all.

Do they block traffic from the US? The page I got told me that they were overloaded…It’s weird.

I could access the site and document from a cloud server in US, connected remotely. Maybe it’s a HTTP proxy server or network setting (IP black/white list) blocking your access?
