Abstract: These solutions concern transforming a communication network into a scalable network to also automate personalized rapid healthcare support. They integrate biometric identification capabilities into a network entity of, or a resource communicably connectible with, a serving network by using computers to mediate biometric identification and location data. Network operators will provide always on enhanced emergency connectivity for mobility and roaming for user equipment to leverage biometric identification for rapid healthcare support and to produce a unified result set, without risk of undue disclosure of raw biometric data or of selected portions of health profile information. These techniques also support personalized, urgency-supported, healthcare to optimize biometrically-link identifiers/network keys (PUSH TO BLINK), even over a visited operator's IP services.

Abstract: Some of these new methods harness distributed computing capabilities to integrate biometric abstraction processes, wireless network connectivity, and specialized software for mediation, to produce a unified result set. A mediator that enables rapid health care support is used in a computer system having a database of information to be shared with authorized requesters, under privacy rules or other pre-defined constraints. The methods, using specialized software for mediation, are preferably enabled to process a securely transmitted remote data request as a query to verify or identify an individual, whether it is sent via a network that is wireless in any part, or not.
