Abstract: A method and an apparatus for communicating healthcare information utilize a set of codes to communicate healthcare data in a convenient manner. A set of codes each corresponding to respective healthcare data is generated. The set of codes is stored in a memory associated with a portable terminal. Selection of at least one code corresponding to healthcare data relevant to a patient is detected, where after the selected at least one code is wirelessly transmitted to a recipient.

Abstract: According to one aspect of the present invention, a method is provided in which a request is submitted to a first node in a network containing multiple nodes, the request containing data relating to a healthcare event associated with a patient. The request is processed at the first node to obtain information from one or more databases associated with the first node, based upon the data contained in the request. The request is also processed at one or more additional nodes in the network to obtain information from one or more additional databases associated with the one or more additional nodes, based upon the data contained in the request. A response to the request is generated based upon an aggregation of information obtained from the first node and the one or more additional nodes.

Abstract: Systems and methods by which voice/data communications may occur in multiple modes/protocols are disclosed. In particular, systems and methods are provided for multiple native mode/protocol voice and data transmissions and receptions with a computing system having a multi-bus structure, including, for example, a TDM bus and a packet bus, and multi-protocol framing engines. Such systems preferably include subsystem functions such as PBX, voice mail and other telephony functions, LAN hub and data router. In preferred embodiments, a TDM bus and a packet bus are intelligently bridged and managed, thereby enabling such multiple mode/protocol voice and data transmissions to be intelligently managed and controlled with a single, integrated system. A computer or other processor includes a local area network controller, which provides routing and hub(s) for one or more packet networks. The computer also is coupled to a buffer/framer, which serves to frame/deframe data to/from the computer from TDM bus.
