Abstract: This patent relates to patient data and more specifically to accessing and managing patient data. One example can generate a user interface from which a user can select predefined entities for use by a health care management application, wherein the entities abstract the health care management application from underlying patient data. This example can allow the user to select an individual predefined entity from the list or define a different entity on the user interface. This example can also enable the user to associate the individual entity or the different entity with a semantic tag.

Abstract: Many current computer software platforms support user customization and version upgradability. Unfortunately, upgrading a computer software platform may result in significant loss of user customization data. Additionally, it may be advantageous for users to export and import their customization data to share as customized business solutions with other instances of the computer software platforms. Accordingly, a technique for creating and importing a configuration package and a technique for creating and utilizing an update package is disclosed herein. The configuration package allows configuration data of elements within a computer software platform to be exported and imported. The update package allows elements to be exported within the update package. The update package may be utilized in upgrading, overwriting, and/or creating a new instance of elements. When an existing element is upgraded with an update element within the update package, the existing element's original configuration may be retained.
