CARE2X solves the problems inherent in a network of multiple programs that are noncompatible with each other.
It can integrate almost any type of services, systems, departments, clinic,
processes, data, communication, etc. that exist in a hospital. Its design can even handle
non-medical services or functions like security, maintenance, etc. It is modular and highly scalable.
CARE2X uses a standard SQL database format for storing and retrieving data. The use of a single data format solves the problem of
data redundancy.
It is a web based software and all its functions can be accessed with a
common web browser thus there is no need for a special user interface software.
CARE2X is authored by Elpidio Latorilla. As an open source development (OSD) project, it is written and distributed under the
