Method and system for consolidating and distributing information

A method and system are provided for consolidating and distributing information. Implementation of system functionalities for both restricted local and unrestricted system-wide uses are permitted. Open standards for hardware, software and firmware components and standardized medical codes, definitions and formats are supported. The preferred embodiment of the invention provides an integrated health care system. The invention can also be used to allow secure access to Social Security, annuity, retirement account, and benefit information, allowing individuals a unified view of their benefit and payment status. A centralized host maintains, consolidates, and redistributes information generated at all networked locations. Information is electronically transferred among the system components to link an individual's local records to those stored remotely. The individual information device, centralized host computer, and any other computers or networks linked to the system can therefore be automatically updated. An individual information device stores a service recipient's insurance information, a emergency records and critical health care histories. This information is accessed by the system for use in managing any aspect of the service recipient's health care. Portable terminals can be used to access the system. A portable terminal can also be used independently from the system to perform health care functions. Unrestricted system-wide, or restricted local uses are supported. Insurance coverage for services and treatments can be determined and the information transmitted directly from the carrier(s) to the service recipient and service provider(s). Supported features include service authorization, messaging, diagnostic services,coverage determination, billing, and electronic payment.

Patient care and communication system

The present invention relates to a patient care and communication system which utilizes a central processing system and a plurality of remote stations electrically connected to the central processing system to facilitate visual and data communications. Each remote station includes telephone circuitry which is connected to a private branch exchange for telephone communications between stations. In addition, the private branch exchange is connected to a telephone exchange and a plurality of telephones for facilitating telephone communication therebetween. The central processing system facilitates the visual and data communications between the plurality of remote stations, and includes a system for determining which of the plurality of remote stations are transmitting the visual and data communications and which of the plurality of remote stations are to receive the visual and data communications. The central processing system also includes a system which establishes a communication link between the transmitting stations and the receiving stations. The remote stations include a processing system which also facilitates the visual, data and telephone communications and a display for displaying the visual communications. The present invention also includes a staff and/or patient locator system, in which each remote station includes an infrared receiver that receives infrared transmissions from a portable transmitter worn by a staff member or patient. The infrared transmissions include identity information associated with the person wearing the transmitter. The identity information is then transferred to the central processing system which determines the identity and location of each person wearing a portable transmitter.

Systems and methods for collaborative interactive visualization of 3D data sets over a network ("DextroNet")

Exemplary systems and methods are provided by which multiple persons in remote physical locations can collaboratively interactively visualize a 3D data set substantially simultaneously. In exemplary embodiments of the present invention, there can be, for example, a main workstation and one or more remote workstations connected via a data network. A given main workstation can be, for example, an augmented reality surgical navigation system, or a 3D visualization system, and each workstation can have the same 3D data set loaded. Additionally, a given workstation can combine real-time imagining with previously obtained 3D data, such as, for example, real-time or pre-recorded video, or information such as that provided by a managed 3D ultrasound visualization system. A user at a remote workstation can perform a given diagnostic or therapeutic procedure, such as, for example, surgical navigation or fluoroscopy, or can receive instruction from another user at a main workstation where the commonly stored 3D data set is used to illustrate the lecture. A user at a main workstation can, for example, see the virtual tools used by each remote user as well as their motions, and each remote user can, for example, see the virtual tool of the main user and its respective effects on the data set at the remote workstation. For example, the remote workstation can display the main workstation's virtual tool operating on the 3D data set at the remote workstation via a virtual control panel of said local machine in the same manner as if said virtual tool was a probe associated with that remote workstation. In exemplary embodiments of the present invention each user's virtual tools can be represented by their IP address, a distinct color, and / or other differentiating designation. In exemplary embodiments of the present invention the data network can be either low or high bandwidth. In low bandwidth embodiments a 3D data set can be pre-loaded onto each user's workstation and only the motions of a main user's virtual tool and manipulations of the data set sent over the network. In high bandwidth embodiments, for example, real-time images, such as, for example, video, ultrasound or fluoroscopic images, can be also sent over the network as well.
