How to add FHIR module into the OpenMRS Platform?

What is OpenMRS?




A few decades back,  all the medical reports of patients were recorded as paper records. It could not be easy to manage and had to spend more time when working on them. When modern technology came, Health Care Applications were created and used to effectively record and manage patient medical records. Some of the Health Care applications are created as free and open source applications. OpenMRS is one of the open-source EMR tools that have been developed and implemented since 2004. It is used by healthcare workers over 5,500 health facilities around the world including 169 countries.
