  • Computing system for notifying persons of exposure to an infectious disease in a healthcare facility
    Patent number: 11087886
    Abstract: An electronic health records application (EHR) receives an indication that a patient in a healthcare facility has been diagnosed with an infectious disease at a datetime. The EHR determines first locations in the healthcare facility in which the patient has been present. The EHR identifies portions of a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system (HVAC) system of the healthcare facility based upon the first locations. The portions of the HVAC system connect the first locations to second locations in the healthcare facility. The EHR identifies a person that has been present in at least one of the first locations or the second locations. The EHR then causes a notification to be transmitted to a computing device operated by the person notifying the person of potential exposure to the infectious disease.
