popHealth is free open-source healthcare reporting software, described as such:

"popHealth is an open source reference implementation software service that automates the reporting of Meaningful Use quality measures. popHealth integrates with a healthcare provider's electronic health record (EHR) system using continuity of care records. popHealth streamlines the automated generation of summary quality measure reports on the provider's patient population."[2]

Product history

On September 21, 2009, the popHealth open-source project was approved for funding by the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC).[1] The MITRE Corporation would act as the primary developer of the software, which would be designed to be compatible with ONC-certified electronic health record systems.[2] The software would use Health Level 7's Continuity of Care Document and Continuity of Care Record standards to allow healthcare providers to extract quality data from patients' records.[3]

The first commit to the associated GitHub project occurred on October 5[4], and a stable prototype version 0.2 of popHealth was made finally available to the public on February 25 and 26, 2010.[1][3] Version 1.0 of the software was released on April 7, 2011.[5]

On January 21, 2014, members of the popHealth community attended a stakeholder meeting to discuss the transition of popHealth to the open source community. The ONC stated:

"[T]here is a large and diverse user group that is utilizing the application (and/or parts of the technology) for a variety of use cases. These uses of the technology will set the stage for the application’s long-term utility. Ultimately, the governance and development of popHealth will be transitioned from being a government-supported piece of software to one that is supported by the open source community."[6]

In March 2014, tentative dates were set for the transition process: April 1, 2014 – July 1, 2014.[7] At the end of July, a transition plan was published, indicating[8]:

  • a source code freeze on GitHub in mid-September 2014;
  • a transfer/fork of the source code to an open-source development team;
  • the take-down of the ONC popHealth website;
  • a continuation of the associated listserv; and
  • a discontinuation of the old popHealth logo.

By late 2015, popHealth became "part of the 'Population Health Analytics Suite' stewarded by the Open Source Electronic Health Record Alliance."[9] The first open-source community release from the Open Source Electronic Health Record Alliance (OSEHRA) arrived as version 4.0.0 on November 17, 2015.[10]
