MEDICAL RECORD SYSTEM
WHAT IS OPENMRS? 
 OpenMRS is a software 
platform and a reference 
application which enables 
design of a customized 
medical records system with 
no programming knowledge. 
 It is a common platform upon 
which medical informatics 
efforts in developing countries 
can be built. 
 The system is based on a 
conceptual database structure.
OUR AIM: 
The mission of OpenMRS is to 
improve health care delivery in 
resource-constrained 
environments by coordinating a 
global community that creates a 
robust, scalable, user-driven, open 
source medical record system 
platform.
