Re: OpenEMR HQ CEO calls for universal data storge by Tim Cook on Tuesday August 26, @06:26AM Just a quick note of clarification. The openEHR specifications are designed as a language and implementation neutral model. There are multiple implementations in a variety of languages such as Python,Java,Eiffel and C#. They also use different approaches data persistence. But in the end, information in one application can be re-used in any other openEHR based application. Two level modeling is essential for this success. The CCR and CCD specs are designed to provide a generic (though not lossless) communications format. There already exists openEHR XSLT transforms for HL7 CDA which should be easily adaptable (at least as a model) for CCR and CCD if desired. It would be very counter productive for any group to launch into defining a data model for health care without informing themselves fully about the work that has been done over the past 40+ years. Healthcare is a complex domain with intersecting temporal and spatial components. Comparing healthcare information management with other industries is something to be done only with great caution.
