7/7/2008 The WordEMRProject software, version 5 is rolled out for public download.
7/8/2008 The www.msofficeemrproject.com website, to house the MWEP is inaugurated. Initial site picture.
7/15/2008 The site is redone using MS FrontPage, seen in this picture.
8/1/2008 The EMR Programming Tutorial detailing the technical aspects of EMR production is initiated.
8/4/2008 The Intro Remarks, Chapter 1, Chapter 2, and Chapter 3 of the EMR Programming Tutorial are completed.
8/2008 thru 11/2008 Various other chapters were added to the on-line EMR Programming Tutorial
9/2008 thru 10/2008 I was busy working heavily on my MS Access EMR, the AccessEMRProject.
11/2008 I've been working on my WordEMRProject, fixing a few bugs that arose when I made the back-end tables the same as that of the AccessEMRProject. The "open source" template, sold for $79, is made available for download.
11/17/2008 The Charge Capture Utility was updated- the automated table row formatting bug was fixed.
11/23/2008
  • From the "Free Downloads" page- The newest WordEMRProject was uploaded, fixing several major bugs, including a back-end table linkage problem. The FMLA template was activated for download.

  • From the "Publications" page- The CCHIT Hall of Fame, to reflect the effect of the current recession on the expensive CCHIT-certified EHRs was upgraded.

12/25/2008 The FMLA Form upgrade is uploaded in zip format. This form demonstrates the utility of using Word UserForms and a linked back-end Access table to help in filling out a complicated industry health report full of redundant field entries.
12/30/2008
  • The WordEMRProject 2008, version 5.1 (2000 and 2002 formats) and 5.2 (Word 2003 format) are now ready for download. The version 5.2 "open source" is likewise ready for download. These versions fix minor bugs and numerous click buttons have been removed to make it easier to compose a full note. When one selects the patient in the frmSOAPNote UserForm, all data now gets filled in (s.a. PMH, FH, SH and medications).
  • Site and project names changed from MS Word (or MS Office) EMR Project to WordEMRProject/OfficeEMRProject, respectively.
2009 Planned for 2009-
  • I will be placing the final entries into the "What is Wrong with HIT in the USA?" PowerPoint presentation to close out HIT under President Bush. The next version of this presentation will focus on activity under President-Elect Obama's administration.
  • I will be switching the WordEMRProject to a back-end SQL.
  • I will try working again with Data Access Pages (i.e. an ASP EMR using MS Office).
  • In 2009 I will be rolling out the AccessEMRProject
