Description:
OSCAR McMaster is a web-based electronic medical record (EMR) system initially developed for academic primary care clinics. It has grown into a comprehensive EMR and billing system used by many doctor's offices and private medical clinics in Canada and other parts of the world. The name is derived from where it was created and an acronym; OSCAR stands for Open Source Clinical Application and Resource and McMaster refers to McMaster University, where it was developed. It enables the delivery of evidence resources at the point of care.

      OSCAR supports all the necessary functions to run a family practice clinic large and small:

    * Patient registration for capitation or FFS practices and roster management
    * Scheduling with highly customizable view of provider groups and individualized booking preference
    * Billing also features super-code for smart and simplified billing and third party billing
    * Complete electronic charting of all encounters with an up to date Cumulative Patient Profile (CPP) which provides a 'snapshot view' of important demographics, all active medical problems, medications, allergies, significant past history, family history and social history
    * Prescription with drug-drug interaction and renal dosage adjustment
    * Chronic disease management which maximizes revenue generation through monitoring and alerting of preventative screening and best practice interventions
    * A sophisticated antenatal care record with antenatal care planner
    * Disease Registry is provided to support population health analyses
    * All laboratory results from private laboratories will be imported directly into the EMR
    * Diagnostic imaging results and consultation notes can be scanned into the EMR where required
