Designing a New Electronic Medical Record

Since this is going on github, why not expand it a bit to allow people to submit things like stylesheets for different types of media/screen sizes or even JavaScript code for formatting the CCD XML format or maybe doing different internationalization formats? Anyway the next step after the design is for everyone to try to code the same design, so might as well at least be open to that part of it.

I don't really have time but if I wanted my submission to be considered I would try to cheat that way by creating working JavaScript code that processed XML and spit out different formatted versions for phones vs. larger screens and also different languages.

looked up a bit for existing records, and required fields and there is no placeholder for genetics data.

Maybe I'm wrong, or I'm overseeing something but I think that "Patient has inherited malicious BRCA1 mutation" information should be IN patients medical record.

We're having a quick discussion tomorrow - we currently have .HTML. We are going to add .CSS and .JS.

Anything else we are missing?

Please forgive the semi-shameless plug, but if you're into this we're a team that thinks about this full time, and we're hiring! We're a small startup rethinking the way patients and their caregivers interact with data. Check us out at http://elationemr.com

we're using the standard set of fields that all EMRs will be required to produce. you can def submit a design that includes those AND how you would represent genetics data.

when you're saying design, you don't mean the actually restructuring, but just the way it's represented correct? so whatever is in the txt stays in the txt
