  • Patent number: 11948029
    Abstract: A client device collects immunization data includes a type of immunization given to an individual and a date that the immunization was provided to the individual. The client device converts immunization data into a numeric string, where the numeric string as converted comprises an encrypted payload portion and a mode indicator portion. The client device generates a two-dimensional machine-readable identifier using the numeric string. A reader device reads the two-dimensional machine-readable identifier and accesses the numeric string. The reader device converts at least a portion of the numeric string comprising the immunization data into a predetermined format for importing into an electronic health record (EHR).

  • Patent number: 11923052
    Abstract: An Electronic Health Record (EHR) data blockchain system configured to allow multiple entities (e.g., pharmacy industry entities and healthcare providers that can act as data, service, product and service providers, and consumers) to connect to an EHR patient transaction blockchain (e.g., EHR-DATA-BC) and an EHR Data Patient Portal (e.g., EHR-Data-PP) to provide a centralized location for messages and subsequent edits to ensure uniform message data is presented. The EHR data blockchain system can include an EHR Data API, an EHR patient transaction blockchain API, and an EHR patient transaction blockchain. The EHR data blockchain system can provide workflow on the blockchain that can utilize smart contracts to define workflow processes, expected outcomes, and financial costs. When a prescription transaction is complete, it will result in the settlement of each of the smart contracts that were added to the prescription workflow.

  • Publication number: 20220387079
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for forming spinal rod members for use in pedicle screw systems for spinal fixation surgery and systems. A system can include a pedicle screw having a pedicle screw head and a pedicle screw shaft, the pedicle screw head comprising an aperture for receiving and retaining a spinal rod member relative to the pedicle screw. The spinal rod member can include an elongated tubular membrane having a flexible body and a spinal rod body formed of a compound, where the spinal rod body is formed by insertion of a liquid compound into the elongated tubular membrane and a hardening of the liquid compound or other similar process for conversion of the flexible rod to a rigid rod. The pedicle screw head can include a channel configured to receive and retain the spinal rod member.

  • Publication number: 20220092566
    Abstract: A data provider tracking and monetization system is disclosed that can provide data aggregation infrastructure, tracking, and monetization. The present disclosure achieves the technological advantage of organizing data that is received from multiple data providers for a single person to provide any missing data. The data providers can be tracked via the provision of their data, such that they can be incentivized for providing the data. The present disclosure improves traditional systems by generating a data structure that includes metadata to identify data providers and data requestors to minimize network congestion, uncategorized data, and stale data that ravages traditional systems. Further by publishing the transactions on a distributed ledger, such as a blockchain, the request for data and all of the contributions thereto provide an open, verifiable, and immutable record of the transaction.

  • Publication number: 20220093225
    Abstract: A patient data provision, consumption, and royalty processing system is disclosed that can facilitate patient data distribution and royalty payment. An EHR Data Utility can transfer patient clinical and pharmaceutical data from an EPOR database from data providers to data consumers with real-time (sub-millisecond delay), secure access. Only the data requested can be provided with each request. The present disclosure can facilitate settlement between the data consumer and the data provider that can result in the exchange of digital currency (Bitcoin SV), cryptocurrency (e.g., Bitcoin®, etc.), utility tokens (such as EHRCash™), vouchers, wire transfers, ACH transactions, or other suitable currency, between the parties involved in the patient data request and provisioning. The present disclosure can eliminate the need for standard accounting processes (e.g., invoicing, statements, accounts receivable and accounts payable) in order to transfer money between data exchange partners.

  • Patent number: 10977532
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for providing access control to the underlying data of a single machine-readable identifier when read by various reader devices. A client device may receive a first cryptographic key associated with a first device profile and a second cryptographic key associated with a second device profile. Data provided through an ingestion process is formatted into at least a first portion of data and a second portion of data, where the first portion of data is intended for a first reader device and the second portion of data is intended for a second reader device. The first portion of data may be encrypted using the first cryptographic key while the second portion of data is encrypted using the second cryptographic key. A machine-readable identifier may be generated using the first portion of data as encrypted and the second portion of data as encrypted.

The EHR data blockchain system can include an EHR Data API, an EHR patient transaction blockchain API, and an EHR patient transaction blockchain. The EHR Data API can access and retrieve patient identifiable information (PII) and generate a non-patient-identifiable Single Purpose Patient ID (SPPID) for a particular patient. The EHR patient transaction blockchain API (e.g., EHR-DATA-BC-API) can store the SPPID, store particular, discrete data retrieved from the EHR for a patient, execute smart contracts, and control the execution of digital currency transfers, among other functions.
