Healthcare is built by many hands

Ever is engineers and physicians working side by side. The community is everyone who helps make healthcare data interoperable, secure and owned by patients.

what contributing looks like

Three ways to make it better

Make a country correct

A country pack holds the language, payer schemes and rates, laboratory names, facility templates and mandatory reports. People who work in that health system know where it is wrong.

  • +Translate and review clinical labels
  • +Check payer rules against current circulars
  • +Supply ward and department templates

Review the clinical detail

Every form, order set and rule should read the way a clinician in that specialty expects.

  • +Walk through a workflow in your department
  • +Flag a field that is missing or misleading
  • +Label data with AnnoMed in your specialty

Build and document

Standard interfaces mean a small team can connect a device, a laboratory system or a new module.

  • +Connect a system over FHIR or HL7v2
  • +Write a plug-in for a local need
  • +Improve a guide you found confusing

what we hold in common

Principles

01

Patients first

Health data belongs to the person it describes. Every design decision is tested against that.

02

Standards over lock-in

HL7 and FHIR in and out, so a hospital can leave as easily as it joined.

03

Auditable by default

Systems that run a hospital should be open to inspection by the people who depend on them.

04

Local knowledge leads

Care differs by country and by ward. People who do the work decide how the software behaves.

Questions people ask

Do I need to be a programmer?

No. Clinicians, translators, students and patients all have a part. Most of what makes hospital software good is knowledge of how care is given.

Is there a forum or chat?

Not yet. For now the community runs by email, and we answer every message.

Can students take part?

Yes. Ever has built teaching tools with a medical faculty and welcomes students in medicine, pharmacy, nursing and computing.

How is patient data protected when people contribute?

Contributors never work on identifiable patient records. Reviews use test data, and research uses consented, de-identified data.

Can my hospital pilot something?

Yes. See the organisations page for how a pilot is scoped.
