Open Source Health Record
   
   
  Why Open Health?
   
  X-Chart is an XML-based open source health record. Since it uses an open source code, it is distributed free of charge by the Open Healthcare Group. We also encourage people to make any modifications or improvements upon it. Furthermore, X-Chart takes full advantage of the interoperability of XML and will thus greatly facilitate the exchange and management of clinical data.
   
  There are several reasons why you should use X-Chart:
   
 

1. You can use X-Chart free of charge.

 

2. You can customize X-Chart to meet your specific clinical needs.

 

3. X-Chart can automate much of the paperwork in your practice. You can, for example, automate the generation of referral letters.

 
4. X-Chart will allow you to easily transfer your health record to others in a usable and secure format.
 

5. X-Chart will make your health records legible.

 

6. You will be joining an open source community that will allow you to benefit from the ideas and work of a collective of people who share similar goals - to improve the practice of medicine and to allow everyone access to this new technology. [Back]
