Abstract: A computer implemented method for displaying patient medical data during an interaction between a patient and a healthcare provider. The method includes receiving an identification of a patient at an electronic medical record server and transmitting patient medical data from an electronic medical record associated with the identified patient to the healthcare provider computing device. The method further includes identifying a location of the provider computing device, transmitting an activation key to a secondary display device for display on the secondary display device, and receiving confirmation from the healthcare provider computing device that the activation key was entered into the healthcare provider computing device. Following activation, the method includes displaying information from the electronic medical record on the secondary display based on a command received from the healthcare provider computing device.

Abstract: A system for facilitating patient data entry for mobile physicians provides for a task queue allowing partial data entry on different devices during the day according to the comparative advantage of the device. Thus, for example, a patient note may be prepared at an office terminal and some transcription added at a later time as dictated into a cell phone or the like. The queue structure provides informational cues to the physician to remind him or her of later data entry tasks and permits seamless integration of fragmented data entry into a common record.
