 Dear iHRIS Community,****

** **

I would like to invite you to participate in the above stated OpenHIE
Provider Registry Community conference call. The Open Health Information
Exchange (OpenHIE) is a global, open-source collaboration initiative
emerging to assist in the strengthening of national health information
exchanges for the underserved. This initiative emerged from the Health
Informatics Public Private Partnership (HIPPP) initiative funded by PEPFAR
in an effort to support the development of the Rwanda Health Enterprise
Architecture (RHEA) Project, a shared electronic medical record created for
expectant mothers visiting antenatal clinics in the Rwamagana district. As
the benefits of the RHEA implementation became apparent, interest gathered
from other countries looking to grow their own health information
technologies. See the below article for more information:****

 ****

As part of this project, we will organize and lead a community around
development and deployment of provider registries, developed using
open-source technologies to support a comprehensive database of all
providers of health care services within a country. The Provider Registry
was developed as part of the RHEA project, and in tandem with other project
Registries, in an effort to keep eHealth systems connected within a
country. As efforts increase to move technologies developed during the RHEA
project from Rwanda and towards serving multiple countries, we welcome the
participation of the broader global community to bring together community
processes, broad reaching experience, and a series of re-usable
technologies to give countries a framework in which they can start to
address their own health information needs and make an impact in their own
local community.****

*The first Provider Registry Community Call will occur this Wednesday,
February 20th at 10:00am EST.  Please join the below google group if you
would like to participate in the call and the agenda and conference bridge
details will be forwarded to you separately. If you are unable to join the
first call, we will continue to hold calls every other Wednesday at 10:00am
EST. *
