    OSEHRA Launches Code Repository and Certification Process
    The Next Step In The Creation Of The Open Source System

    Arlington, Virginia – OSEHRA, the Open Source Electronic Health Record Agent, a notfor-
    profit foundation facilitating EHR (Electronic Health Record) improvements through open
    source development, announced today the launch of its Code Repository and Software Quality
    Certification Process. The establishment of the repository and certification process is a
    significant step in ensuring that OSEHRA provides its community with robust tools that enable
    users, developers, and researchers to engage with and advance electronic health record
    technology.

    OSEHRA’s Code Repository contains the initial Open Source EHR codebase, consisting
    of an initial contribution by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs of its current VistA
    (Veterans Health Information System Technology and Architecture) electronic health record
    software. In order to foster increased innovation in EHR technology, VA previously launched the
    open source software project that led to OSEHRA’s creation and is an active participant in the
    OSEHRA community.

    Software Quality Certification is initially the attestation, and ultimately the verification,
    that all executable artifacts managed by OSEHRA are Safe, Compliant, and Functional. A
    detailed description of OSEHRA software quality certification can be found in the Software
    Quality Certification Plan (http://www.osehra.org/drupal_commons/page/plans-and-whitepapers) at OSEHRA.org.
