Patent ID: 7953699

Claim:
A system for distributing healthcare data from a source node to one or more destination nodes selectable from one or more distributed computing nodes on a data communication network exchanging healthcare information, the system comprising: a source node that receives healthcare information, the source node comprising: an agent configured to analyze the healthcare information and generate a topic including the healthcare information and a list of participating nodes determined from the healthcare information, the topic relating to an electronic medical record and being one of the following groups: a results topic, a provider topic and a physician office definition topic; a payload generator configured to create a payload for distribution of the healthcare information, wherein the payload comprises the topic and a destination node list identifying the list of participating nodes; and an upload module configured for sending the payload to a rendezvous server; the rendezvous server comprising: a plurality of destination node queues corresponding to separate destination nodes; and a rendezvous payload processor configured to receive the payload from the upload module, to retrieve at least one destination node from the destination node list and to place a copy of the payload into at least one destination node queue, each destination node queue corresponding to a respective destination node from the destination node list; the at least one destination node, each destination node comprising: a download module configured to download the payload from the destination node queue corresponding to the destination node upon determination that the rendezvous server contains the payload; an inbox module configured to receive the payload from the download module; an inbox sort module configured to extract the topic from the payload; and an intelligent agent configured to receive the healthcare information included in the topic from the inbox sort module and utilize the healthcare information included in the topic according to destination node requirements.
