OpenMRS was born in Kenya, and today is used all around the world - and built by people from around the world too! Today, the OpenMRS community is a widespread network of dedicated individuals and organizations. As Health IT projects go, we're really big!

Production Sites Around the World
The Latest Metrics
Based on self-reporting by implementers in our global community, we calculate OpenMRS is used in production in:
80+ Countries
8,100+ Healthcare Sites / Facilities
22+ Million Patients
For many different clinical areas, from general outpatient / walk-in centers and primary care, to many different kinds of Specialist/Consultant Clinics, to Inpatient Department Care, to highly specialized treatment centres like oncology. Some historical stories about early-days uses of OpenMRS are here.
Virtual Map: The OpenMRS “Atlas”
For an interactive map built with data from some of our implementation sites, visit: https://atlas.openmrs.org . More details on the Atlas project are here. However, as of 2024, the Atlas module is not as actively maintained or used by implementers. This is something we hope to improve soon. For now, much of our useage and site number collection is manual.
