  • Publication number: 20250247392
    Abstract: Embodiments disclose herein implement a computing system in a computing network with hardware and software components of clinical system resources. The computing network may be a closed, private network. The clinical system resources may be situated on-premises or otherwise geographically proximate to the clinical installation (e.g., hospital, healthcare clinic). The clinical system resources may be heterogenous resources. The clinical system resources may access or execute interface programs (e.g., APIs) for performing interoperability operations on input data or instructions from the clinic database or upstream clinical system resource of the clinical networked computing system. For instance, the interface program may, for example, translate the data format of instructions or application data, or authenticate an upstream clinical system resource that sent the application data or instructions, among others.
