OpenMRS (Medical Record System) on Cloudron
-
OpenMRS is an eMRS (Electronic Medical Record System) that can be used by hospitals, surgeries and pharmacies to help manage patient details, their appointments, prescriptions etc.
In the UK, it is quite frequent that a health centre has their online system down and patients are not able to interact with it. Hopefully, OpenMRS might be able to do better.
OpenMRS received support from Google with their Google Summer of Code, and unfortunately they have allowed (scandalously in my opinion) some Google features into their code.
There is an unrelated project too, GNU Health, which serves a slightly different purpose.

I'm retracting my vote because of the Google features! Voting instead for GNU Health.

It is infuriating, isn`t it? They have to know that mixing up medical record information with Google crap is outright wrong and evil, but that is the way the world seems to work.
These two systems, OpenMRS and GNU Health, are not in direct competition as they serve different though slightly overlapping functions.

@LoudLemur It's infuriating to say the least! I'm spotting calls to Google and other big tech in many "open source" apps. Whether it's for fonts, analytics, etc., it's just wrong when there are open source alternatives. For instance, Invoice Ninja had requests to Google in the recent past but it looks like they removed it in the latest release. This wasn't the first time they've done this as I had caught them before and posted about it upstream and on here. It's turning into a full-time job trying to make sure I'm not violating my own privacy policy when I claim my client data isn't shared with any third party.
Edit: Just checked and IN is now using Typekit for the fonts

@humptydumpty Very good point, with you there! GNU Health cross-post link for reference:

@humptydumpty And a cross-post link for fonts.coollabs.io that offers a drop-in replacement for Google Fonts.
I would like to see Cloudron offer the Apache string replace runtime feature to update the font URLs to CoolLabs.

Haha! That would be so cool!
