MassLight announces the official release of ZapEHR 1.0 and Ottehr. ZapEHR is a cloud service offering developers all the APIs and infrastructure necessary to create next generation health tech and EHRs. Ottehr is a free, production-ready, open-source EHR built on ZapEHR. 


Traditional Electronic Health Records (EHRs) cannot accommodate an organization’s need for customization. Data silos are a feature when they should be a flaw.   Integrations are expensive or impossible.  ZapEHR represents a shift to headless, serverless architecture, addressing pain points in healthcare software development facilitating rapid delivery of innovative healthcare software.


A headless EHR, like ZapEHR, decouples the front-end user interface from the back-end functionality, providing developers with unparalleled flexibility and customization capabilities. 


ZapEHR and Ottehr empower developers creating front-end applications and EHRs for specialized use cases or care delivery, while benefiting from a secure and compliant platform that includes authentication, APIs, secure storage, and other essential components of a medical system.

Key Features of ZapEHR 1.0:

  • FHIR R4B + R5 APIs
  • Telehealth Video Service
  • Messaging & Engagement
  • Identity & Access Management 
  • Open-Source EHR


Benefits for Healthcare Providers:

Quick and Easy Development: Accelerate the development of custom healthcare applications and EHRs tailored to your practice or specialty, saving time and resources.

Security and Interoperability: Rest easy knowing that your healthcare applications are built on a secure and interoperable foundation, meeting the highest industry standards.

Reduced Development Costs: Significantly reduce development costs associated with building and maintaining an in-house infrastructure.

Rapid Time-to-Market: ZapEHR combined with the open-source front-end, Ottehr, will reduce the time and effort to release a custom EHR by up to 95%, taking projects from years to weeks. Healthcare developers can bring new applications and features to market far more rapidly. Organizations stay ahead of the curve and meet evolving patient and regulatory demands.

Community Collaboration: ZapEHR fosters a community of healthcare developers, encouraging collaboration and knowledge sharing. As part of this ecosystem, healthtech developers can benefit from shared insights, open source technology, and a collective effort to advance healthcare technology.
