Benefits of technology

[0030]Certain embodiments of the present invention seek to provide an interoperability solution for medical databases, providing a health information exchange system typically storing complete, single and harmonized patient records, and easing access thereto by bringing relevant information to a user at points in time in which that information is useful and as part of her or his workflows.
[0086]In accordance with an embodiment of the invention, there is yet further provided a system also including an end user interface allowing end users to define rules; and a decision support subsystem (DSS) interacting with the end user interface and using semantic capabilities of a baseline terminology in which the first population of health information items is encoded, to simplify definition of rules by the end users.

Problems solved by technology

Varying medical technology between the HIE and EMR, combined with a lack of ability to semantically resolve the variation, may impose limitations to these modes of information transfer.

embodiment 1

[0200]A method for using a health information exchange system which stores patient record data regarding a multiplicity of patients, to serve a first plurality of EMRs each interacting with an EMR community including a set of at least one EMR, the method comprising:

[0201]for each individual EMR within said first plurality of EMRs, performing a computerized context interception process using a processor to intercept context from the individual EMR and to identify therewithin an event whereby a health provider using said individual EMR calls up an individual patient's record from said individual EMR; and

[0202]responsive to identification of said event, using a computerized output device for providing patient record data, pertaining to said individual patient, to said health provider.

[0203]Context sharing used by Healthcare systems such as EMR and HIE solution's Context Interception processes are used commonly in the healthcare industry in order to insure synchronization for the clinic...

embodiment 2

[0204]A method according to embodiment 1 wherein said patient record data includes at least one information item which is tagged to indicate a source EMR which provided said information item to said health information exchange system and wherein said patient record data provided to said health provider is filtered so as to filter out said at least one information item if said information item's source EMR equals said individual EMR.

[0205]An HIE system may be built to aggregate a patient's clinical information from various sources (such as EMRs, lab systems, radiology systems, etc.), in order to enable a provider to view a complete set of clinical information on a given patient at the point of care. The clinical data aggregated into the HIE may additionally include Metadata that enables unique identification of the source system of each specific clinical data element (e.g. specific lab test done for a given patient, or prescribed medication).

[0206]In order to enable filtering of clin...

embodiment 3

[0207]A method according to embodiment 1 wherein said intercepting and identifying includes using a context management protocol.

Description

REFERENCE TO CO-PENDING APPLICATIONS[0001]Priority is claimed from:[0002]U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 438,762 filed on Feb. 2, 2011, entitled: “Smart agent for EMR processing and methods useful in conjunction therewith”.[0003]This application is a Continuation in Part of: U.S. patent application Ser. No. 12 / 840,806, entitled “Health information exchange and integration system and methods useful in conjunction therewith” and filed 21 Jul. 2010.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0004]The present invention relates generally to systems for processing medical information and more particularly to computerized interactions with EMRs.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0005]Conventionally, information is transferred between an HIE and EMR via messages exchanged between the two systems. For example, an EMR may know how to import lab results from an HIES. An EMR may provide a tab in its main application, sometimes known as the “community tab” which enables a user to view, but not manipulate or impo...
