Yes. But it's not so hot if they open source the certifications. It makes the certifications worthless if just about anyone has an EMR. Is it great to hear about an Open Source EMR? Yes.

One thing I would like to see updated ASAP is the Physician Guide. That will really tell us if the FOSS is embraced. Also, I think CCHIT needs to highlight the cost divide between large proprietary EMR vendor's and FOSS. The physician community seems to be hearing only one story. FOSS doesn't have a bus tour or endless marketing dollars. What it does have is a solid solution that is now CCHIT and HIPAA compliant and a couple of legislators who would like the FOSS stroy told (for one view see Sen. John D. Rockefeller, April 23, 2009) Fred,
