Vertical Medical provides a Free and Open Source solution for storing and processing medical records in Odoo.

Many of the workflows were built in alignment with existing Odoo processes to allow for seamless operation with other record types.

The current project as it is today represents an evolution of the original work from from started from Luis Falcon. See https://sourceforge.net/projects/medical/files/Oldfiles/1.0.1, that later became GNU Health (see http://health.gnu.org/). The original code was licensed under GPL.

On Nov 27, 2012 derivative code was published in https://github.com/OCA/vertical-medical, by Tech-Receptives Solutions Pvt. Ltd., licensed under AGPL. The license change was unauthorized by the original author. See https://github.com/OCA/vertical-medical/commit/f0a664749edaea36f6749c34bfb04f1fc4cc9ea4

On Feb 17, 2017 the branch 9.0 of the project was relicensed to GPL. OCA#166. Various prior contributors approved the relicense, but not all.

On Jan 25, 2018, GNU Health claimed that the original code and attribution should be respected, and after further investigation the Odoo Community Association Board agreed to switch the license back to GPL v3 to respect the rights of the original author.

Although no trace of relationship was found between the code at the date and the original code from 2012, through the commit history of the project one can see that the current status of the project is the end result of an evolutionary process. The Odoo Community Association Board concluded that the original license should be respected for ethical reasons.
