The application of open source (OS) software in healthcare offers various advantages with respect to independency, affordability, maintainability and reuse. The OSSHealth Repository wants to provide information about existing projects and thus help to select the right software according to the users’ needs. It aims to serve as a single access point, providing uniform information on OS solutions in health care. An interactive search and user-friendly listing of the repository's content supports users interested in OS software discovering, comparing and selecting appropriate solutions.
