So You’re Thinking About Forking
Forking can look like the fastest path to control, but it often becomes a long‑term maintenance tax. Here’s a pragmatic checklist to decide—and alternatives that usually win.

As the open source healthcare developer platform of choice for innovators worldwide, Medplum continues to evolve with the rapidly changing technology landscape. We're excited to announce our upcoming major version release, Medplum v5, scheduled for October 2025. This post outlines the significant changes coming in this release to help our users prepare accordingly.
We've heard many success stories from enthusiastic early adopters who have smoothly upgraded to v4. Thank you all for your support and your feedback in this process!
However, we've identified an issue affecting some Medplum deployments that are configured to automatically pull the :latest
Docker tag. With our recent release of Medplum 4.0.0, these deployments may be caught in a failing deployment loop. This post explains why this is happening and how to resolve it.
Medplum v4.0.0 is coming soon! Many of the new features in this release have already been rolled out incrementally, making the v4.0.0 designation more symbolic of the semantic versioning. We prioritize stability and backwards compatibility and work hard to minimize unnecessary changes. However, sometimes changes are necessary to keep the platform up-to-date and secure. This document outlines the key updates in v4.0.0, including important information for self-hosting deployments and TypeScript SDK users.
The Medplum team is pleased to announce that we have certified the (b)(10) ONC Criteria - Electronic Health Information Export.

Codex Health enables health systems manage their patient populations with effective remote patient monitoring (RPM) programs for diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and more.
The Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) certification is a program that ensures that electronic health records (EHRs) meet certain standards for interoperability and security. It is designed to help healthcare providers adopt and use EHRs more effectively, and to promote the widespread adoption of EHRs as a means of improving the quality and efficiency of healthcare. To be certified, an EHR must meet a set of standards and criteria that have been developed by the ONC in collaboration with other organizations and stakeholders in the healthcare industry. These standards cover a range of areas, including the exchange of health information(g10), patient access to their own health data (also g10), and the protection of sensitive health information(d1,d13,g12). By achieving ONC certification, EHRs can demonstrate that they meet these standards and are ready for use in a wide variety of healthcare settings.
