SOFTWARE FOR STREAMLINED ACCESS BETWEEN AN EMERGENCY ROOM AND WEB-BASED MEDICAL SOFTWARE

摘要

Applicant has disclosed a software tool which allows quick access by medical providers (e.g., in a hospital emergency room) to patient records stored on web-based medical software. In a preferred embodiment, the software tool allows integration with a third-party Electronic Medical Record (EMR) software, e.g., used by a medical provider, by capturing screen data from the third-party software, querying a database of the web-based medical software as to whether or not the database contains an active medical record number associated with the patient, and notifying the medical provider of the patient's medical record number status within the web-based medical software. If that record number is active, the provider can click upon a link and be passed directly to an electronic medical record for the specific patient in the web-based medical software.
