EHR.Network FAQs

What are the costs involved?

EHR.Network is a usage based subscription service. It has a low entry level and can scale up and grow with you as your business grows. So you will have a low fixed costs to start with and subscription costs will always be aligned to your scale of business.

The factors that influence the subscription costs are
– Services used on the platform
– Count of APIs consumed
– Amount of data transfer
– Amount of data storage

As a ballpark figure your fixed costs will be around ₹15K/Month during development and ₹25K/month when live. For more guidance, please refer to https://ehr.network/prices/product-subscription-prices/

Where will the platform & data be hosted?

Our services are cloud agnostic and can be hosted on any infrastructure. The cloud hosted service is currently on the Bangalore data center of Digitalocean.

Can we connect data from a different service with the EHR platform?

The platform architecture is federated with multiple services and databases. We also have an appServer framework to extend the platform with app specific functionality. You can have your own database, workflows and business logic at your appServer level.

The appServer can also be used to integrate data other external service in your application.

How do we add APIs for our app specific content?

Our appServer framework is designed for this purpose. We have a free java based framework with a large number of ready APIs. This can be extended with additional functionality and APIs for your specific requirements. Pls have a look at https://docs.ehr.network/apidocs/mdaas.html to see some of the currently available APIs.

What portion of the platform would we own & control?

We have multiple deployment options, each with varying levels of control for you

– Shared public cloud – Shared infrastructure. Standard APIs. Extensions(scheme, queries etc) are managed by us. Lowest entry cost + usage based costs
– Dedicated cloud – Dedicated infra, extended API set, full admin API access, optional data backup to your cloud instance. Low entry cost + usage based costs
– Private cloud – Host on your cloud infrastructure, extended API set, full admin API and server access, High entry costs for platform licensing + support cost

Can someone help us customize the platform for our needs?

Customization of the platform is available at 2 levels

– Level 1 – Configurations and updates including new clinical models, queries, master setups such as Roles & professions etc.
– Level 2 – Development of custom app specific logic and workflows

Platform APIs allow almost everything in level 1. However some of them may require specific domain skills. Everything in level 2 is custom development specific to your application.

We offer professional services(https://ehr.network/prices/professional-services/ ) for the above. For all level 2 work, we extend the platform for your requirements using our Java based appServer framework. We do not provide app development services at this point.

Do we need to hire a part time/ full time developer?

We can offer services to take care of your requirements up to the appServer APIs. You can make use of these services as required. You do not have to hire full time developers from us.

However you will have to make alternate arrangements for the development of your application(s).

In case we discontinue working with EHR.Network, how do we transition?

At a base level all the critical data(Demographics & EHR) on the platform are standards compliant and you should be able to migrate them to any other platform that follows the same open standards. At all times the clinical data generated by your solution will be compliant to openEHR datasets.
That said, if we decide to part ways, we could work on an agreement towards a perpetual license to the appropriate version of services being used for your business continuity.

In case you plan to migrate to an alternate platform, you can extract data from our platform and load them to your new platform using FHIR and openEHR APIs. The templates (that indicate the schema) and the associated specs that are used are open(https://gitlab.com/healthelife/ehr.network/ehrnetwork-developer-tools ) and are available to you at all times.
