Methods and systems of correlating electronic pharmacy data and electronic medical records

摘要

Correlating electronic pharmacy data and electronic medical record (EMR) data may include receiving, at a correlation module and from a pharmacy computing network, a query, of a first format, for data corresponding to an EMR of a patient. The correlation module may convert the query into a second format different from the first format, and may send the converted query to another network that has access to the EMR. A response in the second format may be received, and the correlation module may convert the response into the first format and send the converted response to the pharmacy network. The correlation module may be communicatively connected with other computing networks, each corresponding to a different health care organization and each having access to a different set of EMRs. In an embodiment, the first protocol is based on an NCPDP standard, and the second protocol is based on an HL7 protocol.
