  • Patent number: 11908556
    Abstract: Systems and methods provide for implementation of a messaging protocol that provides security necessary for clinical messaging while also providing scalability needed to properly function within a clinical setting. The messaging protocol provides for federation of messages across messaging domains with a direct target address or via a role or group endpoint address that resolves to one or more target addresses. The messaging protocol also provides the ability to include content other than text in messages.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10275570
    Abstract: Methods, computer systems, and computer-storage medium are provided for providing closed loop alert management. An alert related to a patient is communicated to a first tier via a messaging application. The first tier comprises one or more clinicians assigned to care for the patient. Upon receiving a response from a clinician in the first tier, an indication the clinician has responded to the alert is communicated to the first tier. Upon receiving no response from a clinician in the first tier, the alert may be communicated to other devices associated with the clinicians in the first tier or to a subsequent tier comprising one or more other clinicians.

  • Patent number: 9479511
    Abstract: Methods, computer systems, and computer-readable storage media for using a single application on a mobile device to access a plurality of client domain sites are provided. The single application on the mobile device receives from a user of the mobile device a set of authorization credentials. Based on the set of authorization credentials, the single application receives a first client domain uniform resource locator from a third-party directory service. The first client domain uniform resource locator is used to access a client gateway service; the client gateway service provides a secure access point to a number of different service solutions hosted by a client. Upon the user inputting a set of authentication credentials, the user is able to access information from one or more of the different service solutions.
