Abstract: An integrated medical database system for the emergency medical transportation business. The system includes a dispatch and demographic module, a clinical module, an administration module and a billing module. Each module may communicate data with one or more of the other modules to form a system incorporating data sharing, thus achieving an end-to-end automation of emergency medical care accounting. Internal consistency checks are performed by the system to ensure that proper treatments are performed according to a chosen diagnosis. The system includes a billing modifier module operating on data from the dispatch and demographic module. In one embodiment, the billing modifier module applies Geographic Practice Cost Index (GPCI) and Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) billing modifiers based on modifiable computerized rules so as to provide a more accurate charge to the payer. The results of the billing modifier module are forwarded to the billing module.

Each module may communicate data with one or more of the other modules to form a system incorporating data sharing, thus achieving an end-to-end automation of emergency medical care accounting. Internal consistency checks using specific libraries of modifiable data rules are performed by the system to ensure that proper treatments are performed according to a chosen diagnosis. The system includes a demographic data accuracy filter operating on patient data prior to the billing module.

Abstract: An integrated medical database system for the emergency medical transportation business. In one aspect of the invention, the system includes a dispatch and demographic module, a clinical module, an administration module and a billing module. Each module may communicate data with one or more of the other modules to form a system incorporating data sharing, thus achieving an end-to-end automation of emergency medical care accounting. Internal consistency checks using specific libraries of modifiable data rules are performed by the system to ensure that proper treatments are performed according to a chosen diagnosis. The system includes a compliance audit module operating on data from the dispatch module and clinical module. The compliance audit module checks to ensure that data is consistent with high risk compliance areas. The results of the compliance audit module are forwarded to the billing module.

Abstract: A system and method for providing secure data communications and user access authorization for an integrated emergency medical transportation database. The secure communications and user authorization is provided by a Virtual Private Network (“VPN”), allowing confidential patient medical records to be transmitted via a public network such as the Internet without compromising the confidentiality of the data.
