Fasten - On Premise/Self-Hosted
Fasten securely connects your healthcare providers together, creating a personal health record that never leaves your hands
[!NOTE] NOTE: Fasten is a Work-in-Progress and can only communicate with a limited number of Healthcare Instutions (approx 25,000 at last count). Please fill out this Google Form if you'd like to be kept up-to-date on Fasten
Introduction
Like many of you, I've worked for many companies over my career. In that time, I've had multiple health, vision and dental insurance providers, and visited many different clinics, hospitals and labs to get procedures & tests done.
Recently I had a semi-serious medical issue, and I realized that my medical history (and the medical history of my family members) is a lot more complicated than I realized and distributed across the many healthcare providers I've used over the years. I wanted a single (private) location to store our medical records, and I just couldn't find any software that worked as I'd like:
- self-hosted/offline - this is my medical history, I'm not willing to give it to some random multi-national corporation to data-mine and sell
- It should aggregate my data from multiple healthcare providers (insurance companies, hospital networks, clinics, labs) across multiple industries (vision, dental, medical) -- all in one dashboard
- automatic - it should pull my EMR (electronic medical record) directly from my insurance provider/clinic/hospital network - I dont want to scan/OCR physical documents (unless I have to)
- open source - the code should be available for contributions & auditing
So, I built it.
Fasten is an open-source, self-hosted, personal/family electronic medical record aggregator, designed to integrate with 1000's of insurances/hospitals/clinics
Features
It's pretty basic right now, but it's designed with a easily extensible core around a solid foundation:
- Self-hosted
- Designed for families, not Clinics (unlike OpenEMR and other popular EMR systems)
- Supports the Medical industry's (semi-standard) FHIR protocol
- Uses OAuth2 (Smart-on-FHIR) authentication (no passwords necessary)
- Uses OAuth's
offline_access
scope (where possible) to automatically pull changes/updates - (Future) Multi-user support for household/family use
- Condition specific user Dashboards & tracking for diagnostic tests
- (Future) Vaccination & condition specific recommendations using NIH/WHO clinical care guidelines (HEDIS/CQL)
- (Future) ChatGPT-style interface to query your own medical history (offline)
- (Future) Integration with smart-devices & wearables
Getting Started
There are 2 flavors of Fasten:
ghcr.io/fastenhealth/fasten-onprem:sandbox
- This version only allows you to connect to a handful of Healthcare providers, using Sandbox accounts that are meant for testing, and contain synthetic (fake) data to give you an idea what Fasten will look like, without requiring personal medical information.ghcr.io/fastenhealth/fasten-onprem:main
- This version allows you to connect to 25,000+ different Healthcare providers, using your existing accounts. It will allow you to connect and retrieve your personal electronic medical record and store it within Fasten. Be careful, this is YOUR health data
Instructions
First, if you don't have Docker installed on your computer, get Docker by following this install guide.
Next, run the following commands from the Windows command line or Mac/Linux terminal in order to download and start the Fasten docker container.
docker pull ghcr.io/fastenhealth/fasten-onprem:main
docker run --rm \
-p 9090:8080 \
-v ./db:/opt/fasten/db \
-v ./cache:/opt/fasten/cache \
ghcr.io/fastenhealth/fasten-onprem:main
Next, open a browser to http://localhost:9090
At this point you'll be redirected to the login page.
Logging In
Before you can use the Fasten BETA, you'll need to Create an Account.
It can be as simple as
- Username:
testuser
- Password:
testuser
Usage
If you're using the sandbox
version of Fasten, you'll only be able to connect to Sources using test credentials

Using with multiple people
[!NOTE] NOTE: Multi-user features are a work in progress. This section describes the eventual goals.
Fasten is designd to work well for an individual or a family. Since it is self-hosted, by nature the person running the service will have full root access to all user records. For most families, this is perfect! If you need stronger security, Fasten might not be for you.
Fasten assumes that all records connected from a single user account (from one or more sources) belong to a single individual, and thus will show aggregations that will only make sense for a single person. Be careful to not connect sources for different people to the same Fasten user account.
Tracking health data for multiple family members works by creating new user accounts for each person. Any user with the admin
role can manage users and permissions. Any user can be granted access (by an admin) to view another user's records. Through this mechanism, it's easy to setup any family configuration needed. For example: a family of four can have two parents that can each see the records of the two children.
It is also possible to create users with the viewer
role that only have access to view records of other users. This can be used to share records with a caregiver.
This allows for a more complex example:
- a family consisting of 2 parents, and 2 children and a caregiver (nurse, babysitter, grandparent).
- both parents need to be able to access both children's records, and maybe each-others
- the caregiver should have view-only access to 1 or both children, but not the parents.
