The temporary medical orders and results transactions repository that intercepts Business-to-Business (B2B) electronic communications from Point “A” (source and/or creator) to Point “B” (electronic communication recipient, address, name and/or destination) to allows handling of outpatient medical-orders where Point “B” doesn't have to be defined at Point “A” (while the medical-order is being created); allowing creation of electronic orders at Point “A” without knowledge of where or who is Point “B” and delegating the designation of Point “B” to another party, other than the original medical-order creator. In this way, the choice of products and/or service providers is defined without medical order-creator intervention and/or influence; all WITHOUT the need of Unique IDs (UID, GUID or the like).
The repository intercepts orders to be temporarily saved in the repository, either by business-rule, lack of destination information, or orders sent to the repository as destination,.
Order-fulfillers “claim” (route to themselves, etc.) unclaimed orders, limited to their line-of-work, using patient and/or order-creator properties or parameters to identify and select the correct order based on search engine, common database modalities and master patient/person index technologies available freely, as open source, or a combination, and once orders have been delivered to the destination, orders are purged after a set of conditions, due dates or fulfillment indicators are reached.
