NOSH ChartingSystem is an electronic health record system designed exclusively for doctors and patients. This is a new mobile-friendly version that is now based off of the Laravel PHP framework and jQuery. NOSH has FHIR, Bluebutton, ICD-10, GoodRX API, RXNorm API, Phaxio, and UMA support.
You'll need to have the following applications/packages installed on your system prior to installation of NOSH ChartingSystem. If you have a LAMP (Linux-Apache-mySQL-PHP) or MAMP (Mac-Apache-mySQL-PHP) server already set up, you are golden!
NOSH ChartingSystem installation. (needs to be running)
mysql, imap, mcrypt, imagick, gd, cli, curl, soap, pear
Installing NOSH ChartingSystem is easy to install if you run Docker NOSH. NOSH and all its dependencies are already configured and installed properly. Just deploy the Vagrant virtual machine and you're ready to start. The previous method through Ubuntu Linux PPA's is now depreciated. If you have access to a terminal shell for your server (any distro for Linux or Mac OS-X), you can install NOSH.
The installation script automatically adds scheduled task commands (cron files) and web server configuration files to make NOSH
work seamlessly the first time. The script also determines if your system meets all the package dependencies before installation.
For detailed information, go to the Wiki link.
If this is the first time using NOSH, make sure you login to NOSH ChartingSystem as admin and configure your users and clinic parameters. It's important to do this first before any other users use NOSH ChartingSystem; otherwise, some features such as scheduling will not work correctly!
Like Laravel, NOSH now utilizes Composer to manage its PHP dependencies.
Composer is automatically installed when you use the installation script (it is located in /usr/local/bin/composer).
Because the core NOSH files are now served on GitHub, NOSH is self-updating daily
whenever a new commit (updated files) is uploaded. There is no more user intervention anymore, and you get the latest and greatest
NOSH version at your fingertips!
Labs are set up in such a way: Name of Test [OrderCode,CPTCode,LOINCCode,ResultCode]
NOSH is built around the Laravel 5 PHP Framework, which is a models/controllers/views (MCV) framework. Documentation for the entire framework can be found on the Laravel website.
The routes.php file dictate where the URL command goes to. Looking at the file, you'll notice that the controllers are categorized by an access control list (ACL) based on the type of user priviledges a user has when he/she is logged in to NOSH.
As is standard with the Laravel framework, main guts of the system lie in the ../app/Http/Controllers directory. Looking at the routes.php file, you'll notice that the type of controllers are categorized between AJAX and non-AJAX functions (hence they are named with a prefix of Ajax). Furthermore, the main controller files (CoreController.php, ChartController.php) are determined based on whether the functions are patient related or practice related. As is also standard with the Laravel framework, middleware in the ../app/Http/Middleware directory govern any checks/filters prior to calling a function in each controller.
The view files, PDF, and email template files are in the ../resources/views directory. The view files are essentially "modules" that are added on depending on the needs of the view layout. The corresponding javascript files (named the same as the view file, but with a .js extension) are in the ../public/assets/js directory. If you see the javascript, you will notice that jQuery is used heavily here. There are numerous plugins for jQuery that are referenced in the header file. Below is a list of the major jQuery plugins that are used:
In addition to views, other resources such as CPT codes, supplements list, CVX codes, immunizations recommendations, and growth chart plotting data are stored in either CSV or YAML format. These files will or can be updated from time to time based on available updates.
Images indicated in the view files reside in the ../public/assets/images directory. CSS files reside in the ../public/assets/cs directory Imported files are usually downloaded via script in the ../import directory.
Below are the list of active database tables that are installed for NOSH. Some table names are self explainatory, but those that are not will be explained here. Some tables are depreciated if you happen to see the database schemas. addressbook alerts allergies assessment - Assessment of a patient encounter. audit - This is a log of all database commands (add, edit, delete) by users of NOSH. billing - List of all fields in a HCFA-1500 form for each patient encounter. billing-core - List of all charges and payments for a patient encounter. calendar - List of all visit types and their duration for the patient scheduler. demographics - List of all patients (active or inactive) in the system. demographics_notes - Additional demographics information irrespective of practice. demographics_relate - Reference table associating patient to practices and users. documents - List of all PDF documents saved in the documents folder (default is /noshdocuments) on the server that pertain to a given patient. encounters - List of all patient encounters for a given patient. forms - List of filled out forms. groups - List of user groups (provider, admin, assistant, billing, patient). hippa - List of all release of information requests for a given patient. hpi - History of Present Illness of a patient encounter. immunizations - List of immunizations for a given patient. insurance - List of all insurance information for a given patient. issues - List of all medical issues (active or inactive) for a given patient. labs - List of all lab results for a given patient. messaging - Intraoffice messaging. migrations - Internal use for Laravel. orders - This table lists all physician orders for a given patient. orderslists - This table lists all templates for physician orders. other_history - Past Medical History, Past Surgical History, Family History.
