Patent ID: 8428968

Claim:
A computer-implemented electronic medical record (EMR) access control system configured to implement an access program stored on a computer-readable medium comprising: a computer, which when controlled by the access control program, is configured to: a) receive patient-sourced medical data about a patient from the patient at a computer system; b) determine a patient specific range of physiology values based at least in part on the patient-sourced medical data; c) generate a revised patient specific range of physiology values using the access program based on a computer-implemented electronic medical record system of a healthcare provider using a subset of the data in the electronic medical record of the healthcare provider, the subset being defined by the healthcare provider; e) compare the revised patient specific range of physiology values to the patient-sourced medical data using the access program to generate an information report based on the medical record data in the electronic medical record of the healthcare provider; and f) return the information report to the patient based on the comparison, wherein the subset defined by a healthcare provider is defined to exclude patient access to information in the electronic medical record of the healthcare provider until the occurrence of a personal consultation between the patient, and the healthcare provider, the exclusion being indicated by data and programmable rules in the electronic medical record of the healthcare provider.
