[Gnumed-devel] Certification of Ambulatory EHRs - potential source for f

Subject: [Gnumed-devel] Certification of Ambulatory EHRs - potential source for functional requirements and pre-configurations

Maybe of interest are the CCHIT 2008 certifications (functional requirements) including EHR criteria and test scripts 

http://www.cchit.org/certify/2008/ambulatory-ehr-certification

Part of their test scripts document is offered below.

While I maintain affection for Kirk and Spock and the nerdiness of Kirk having been tentacled (and there is no reason we cannot keep in Kirk and Spock) I think I might very much like us to be pre-loading the CCHIT test data... such an approach:

- spares us a lot of brain cycles otherwise thinking up the information
- may allow us some copy/paste instead of it all having to be keyboard input
- documentation is already done for us!

Agreement? Disagreement? Thoughts?
