Abstract: Providing healthcare services based on the combination of data from electronic healthcare records (EHRs) and community patient data includes: retrieving EHR data from an EHR database for a patient; retrieving community patient data for the patient; and providing clinical decision support for a healthcare provider at a computing device of the healthcare provider by interjecting, into a clinical workflow that utilizes the retrieved EHR data, the retrieved community patient data such that the clinical workflow utilizes the retrieved EHR data and the retrieved community patient data without importing the retrieved community patient data into the EHR database, and providing results of the workflow to the healthcare provider in a user interface at the computing device. The EHR data joined with the community patient data is actionable without importing the community patient data into the EHR database.

Abstract: A method includes accessing, by a healthcare practitioner via an EHR software application loaded on an electronic device, patient information for a patient; determining, by an agent application loaded on the electronic device, the patient for which the patient information was accessed; communicating, from the agent application to an agent service, a request for data regarding the patient; communicating, from the agent service to the agent application, accessed community data for the patient; displaying, in an interface of the agent application, one or more data items based on the accessed community data; receiving user input corresponding to toggling of the agent application from a filtered mode to an unfiltered mode; in response to the toggling, displaying additional data items coded visual indications that the respective data items are newly displayed, the coded visual indications being coded to indicate a reason why each respective data item was not previously displayed.

Abstract: A medical software application is configurable to allow different specialty views to be specified for healthcare practitioners having different characteristics (e.g. specialists in different fields), based on, for example, role or specialty information for a logged in user. A specialty view is further be configured to affect the display of data within a domain. A specialty view can specify that a certain vocabulary takes priority for display purposes (e.g. display ordering).
