  • Patent number: 11763922
    Abstract: A method of electronically reporting a reportable condition includes receiving a first document associated with a first type of a Consolidated-Clinical Document Architecture (C-CDA) standard. The first document includes patient information associated with a patient treated by a healthcare provider (HCP). The method also includes parsing the first document into a plurality of patient information fields and determining whether any of the plurality of patient information fields in the parsed first document include a reportable condition. When at least one patient information field of the plurality of patient information fields includes the reportable condition, the method also includes generating a second document associated with a second type of the C-CDA standard and including the reportable condition.

  • Patent number: 10629310
    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems and methods for facilitating communication of health information. A system can include a request management module to receive, from a source endpoint, an electronic query. The query can be formatted according to a first communications protocol and can include at least one request parameter. A destination identifier module can determine a destination endpoint and a second destination endpoint. A translation module can translate the electronic query from the first communications protocol to a second communications protocol associated with the destination endpoint to generate a translated query. The translation module can also translate the electronic query from the first communications protocol to a third communications protocol associated with the second destination endpoint to generate a second translated query.
