Patent ID: 8731969

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 generated and entered into the computer by the patient from the patient at a patient computer system; b) generate a trend analysis based on previously received patient-sourced medical data that does not include healthcare provider-sourced medical data; c) generate a patient specific data range based on healthcare provider-sourced medical data generated based on interaction between the patient and a healthcare provider in a computer-implemented electronic medical record system of the healthcare provider; wherein the healthcare provider-sourced medical data does not include patient-sourced medical data; d) compare the received patient-sourced medical data to the trend analysis and the patient specific data range and determine that the received patient-sourced medical data is not an outlier when compared to the trend analysis and is within the patient specific data range; and e) incorporate the received patient-sourced medical data based on the determination into a patient-sourced medical data section of the computer-implemented electronic medical record system of the healthcare provider, tagging the received data as patient-sourced medical data to generate tagged patient sourced medical data stored on the computer system, wherein the access program is configured to block access to the computer-implemented electronic medical record system by the patient.
