"The EHR is based on a early reference implementation of the Patient Outcomes Data Service, an open source “ultra-light record” derived from standards of NCI’s Cancer Biomedical Informatics Grid (caBIG).
The record, which is set up to provide data on patient demographics, disease and treatment results, could be used by providers and even consumers for data exchange.
“Because we use standards, anybody can push it or receive it,” Buetow said in remarks at a conference sponsored April 12 by the World Health Care Congress
The specifications and the software are available now through the NCI site but are not consumer-friendly, Buetow said. NCI plans to make it easily accessible to providers and consumers who would want to use it, within 60 days.
NCI is working with SAIC and Microsoft on the project, he added"
