Patent ID: 8521554

Claim:
One or more computer-readable storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon for performing a method in a clinical computing environment for presenting results of clinically-relevant discrete task assays, the method comprising: generating a medication identifier/discrete task assay electronic data store, wherein generating the medication identifier/discrete task assay electronic data store comprises: (1) receiving a medication identifier associated with a first medication; (2) receiving at least one discrete task assay that is independent of patient data, the discrete task assay being clinically relevant to the first medication; (3) associating the medication identifier with the at least one discrete task assay; receiving an indication that a clinician desires to document administration of the first medication to a patient, the indication being received in association with a medication administration documentation location of an electronic medical record data store associated with the patient; incident to receiving the indication that the clinician desires to document administration of the first medication to the patient, automatically searching, using a search component, the medication identifier/discrete task assay electronic data store to determine the at least one clinically-relevant discrete task assay associated with the medication identifier of the first medication; incident to determining the at least one clinically-relevant discrete task assay associated with the medication identifier of the first medication, automatically searching, using the search component, the electronic medical record data store associated with the patient to determine that the patient's electronic medical record data store has a patient result corresponding to the at least one clinically-relevant discrete task assay; determining that the patient result corresponding to the at least one clinically-relevant discrete task assay was generated within a predefined time frame prior to receiving the indication that the clinician desires to document administration of the first medication to the patient; and presenting the patient result corresponding to the at least one clinically-relevant discrete task assay in association with the medication administration documentation location of the electronic medical record data store associated with the patient.
