  • Patent number: 10366786
    Abstract: Electronic records are formatted according to recipient addresses. When an electronic database record is received by a server or other device, the electronic database record has any formatting, herein termed a legacy format. The electronic database record is destined for delivery to device identified by a recipient address. The recipient address is associated with a software agent that reformats the legacy format into a different format. The electronic database record is thus reformatted according to software agent associated with the recipient address. A reformatted database record is thus sent to the recipient address, and the reformatted database record has the different format.

The recipient's address may be associated with a patient or with medical personnel, such as a physician or nurse. If the time and/or the recipient's address correspond to an entry in the schedule of procedures, then an alternate destination may be chosen for the communication.

    Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for enabling a virtual physician office (VPO) that uses a network-based physician practice application and leverages the assets of a shared, communications network of legacy systems. A data connection is established with a rule-based application dataserver of a telecommunications network facility to control access, sharing, notification, security, and/or management of electronic healthcare communications. Typically, the rule-based application dataserver is associated with a central office (“CO”), a mobile telephone switching center (“MTSO”), or a combination CO/MTSO.

  • Patent number: 8699688
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and products are disclosed for enabling an exchange of electronic healthcare messages. An electronic message is received from a sender's address that is destined for a recipient's address. The electronic message may have an attached object associated with a sender's legacy system. The sender's address and the recipient's address are associated to a list of health care participant addresses. When both the sender's address and the recipient's address are matched to the list of health care participant addresses, then the electronic message is sent to a rule-based engine. When the sender's address and the recipient's address do not match the list of health care participant addresses, then an identifier is received that associates the electronic message with another legacy system and with a non-participant legacy system.
