About

OpenEMPI seeks to provide an open community towards development and critical evaluation of open source solutions for use as a community or enterprise master patient index (”MPI”).

Key goals include:

  • To articulate an accessible framework for the development of open source MPI solutions in any relevant computing environment (e.g. Java EE, PHP, .NET, etc.)
  • To discuss and share patient disambiguation, de-duplication and matching algorithms of any type (e.g. deterministic, probabilistic, etc.)
  • Contribute towards useful open source MPI implementations for any relevant computing platform
  • Seek critical appraisal of existing components and recommendations for a standards based approach toward the community development of an MPI. This should include a structured evaluation process, with meta-analysis, of production open source MPI solutions.
