System for and method of enhancing patient's healthcare by utilizing provider-generated data

摘要

A system and method by which medical care providers enter data representing a patient's condition(s), treatments provided and drugs prescribed and other information that may be germane to a patient's condition. The data is transmitted to both a managed-care organization as well as to interconnected centralized service center(s) that receive similar data from multiple participating providers. The service center(s) store, for each patient, all the data. When such data is received from the medical providers treating the patient the service center can create a profile of the patient and compare all of this data with a database or lookup table (LUT) that contains all of the recommended protocols, treatments, follow-up treatments, medications, etc. for a patient. When follow-up treatments, medications, etc. are recommended, the service center(s) can automatically send reminders, recommendations or suggestions to the patient's provider(s) to take recommended steps to ensure the wellness of the patient.
