Fasten Health [1] is an open-source, self-hosted, personal/family electronic medical record aggregator, designed to integrate with 100,000's of insurances/hospitals/clinics.

It's designed to automatically pull your medical records from your EMR -- but users can also enter their conditions, medications and procedures manually. We have plans to allow users to manually enter their lab results [2], however that feature has not been implemented yet.

Fasten is still a work-in-progress, but if you're willing to contribute we have a pretty active discord (linked in the README).

Awesome project. Was poking around to see how the sources are generated, but it seems like the repo doesn't exist (or was made private)? https://github.com/fastenhealth/fasten-sources-gen

ah, it's not super interesting. Most EMR systems provide an open list of FHIR endpoints for their customers. `fasten-source-gen` is basically an ETL repository which imports the endpoint metadata provided by these EMR systems and enriches it with data from NPPES, Google Maps, user contributed data, Mechanical Turk and elsewhere.

- Epic: https://open.epic.com/MyApps/Endpoints - Cerner: https://github.com/cerner/ignite-endpoints

It will be open sourced (eventually) -- once I've cleaned up some test credentials that were inadvertently committed to the repo.

Hope that answers your question?

This is probably specific to the US? It would be nice for the Readme to clarify that aspect.

Hey! It is definitely US-centric, however FHIR (the protocol that Fasten speaks natively) is an international standard. We're tracking international support in this github issue - https://github.com/fastenhealth/fasten-onprem/issues/42

However, we'll make sure to update the README to make it clearer that international providers are not supported yet.
