DermEngine Integration for OSCAR EMR

This page explains how to set-up DermEngine to sync patient demography from the OSCAR EMR software to DermEngine.

While using this software, patients on OSCAR will be transferred to the DermEngine platform. On DermEngine, images and lesions can be added to each patient.

Requirements:

• Access to OSCAR EMR
• Integration needs to be enabled on OSCAR first.  For additional details: https://oscaremr.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/OS/pages/79855638/Connecting+to+OSCAR+s+REST+API
