I don't know of one off the top of my head. You would probably use the core node/fields system to create a node customized to your needs. As further advise, make sure to use securepages, and to use a secured server (likely managed VPS or better), as health records are widely considered to be veeerrry private information. I believe that here in the USA, HIPPA laws are very strict about this, and the practicing doctor may even have to add info about data hosting to his/her disclaimer that the patient signs.
Yes, Jesse, that is all true.
Yes, Jesse, that is all true. As a former IT Manager at a healthcare organization who moved patients from the traditional paper file system to electronic medical records back in 2005, I can tell you that it's not a process for the faint of heart. There's a TON of materials that you need to read & be in accordance with for HIPPA compliance. There might be similar laws/things to be mindful of in other countries so if your client is not in the U.S., you might have to read up on what that countries' laws are.
I accomplished that before I was introduced to Drupal. If I was to do it now, I don't know of any modules, either, that would help me. There'd have to be a lot of custom code involved due to the sensitive nature of patient data. I'd call whatever organization is similar to HIPPA in the client's country & work with them directly. They're usually quite helpful.

Medical Drupal
Hi i would like to develop a EMR for a small hospital around 800 patients, do you believe that Drupal is a good choice? or it is better to use another software like freeMED etc.
Thank you
Drupal EHR
Drupal should work fine, I have developed something similar, u can send me a private message for the link. Using cck, views should take care of the EHR part. I am currently working on the lab reports and billing. Features completed so far, Patient registration, Doctor visits patient/doctor reports, appointments.

REST API for (validated) medical data
To help yuo out we have created some nice Rest API for (validated) medical data, please see at http://mr.dev.medvision360.org/mr/apidocs/#!/
This API is 100% standardised according to ISO/NEN and will deliver you "real" semantic interoperability. Please let me know if this works for you, more info can be found at www.medrecord.nl.
Cheers, Jan-Marc
