Claim:
A method of obtaining patient's clinical data, the method comprising: storing identification information of a patient on a hub of a hub-spoke patient information service, wherein the hub is communicatively coupled with a set of spoke sources storing clinical data of the patient associated with a plurality of different types of clinical data; authenticating a user to access the hub; upon receiving a request by the user, querying the set of spoke sources using a first authentication to authenticate the hub with the set of spoke sources; retrieving, by the hub immediate after receiving the request, a first subset of clinical data of the patient available to the user from the set of spoke sources based on the first authentication; providing a user interface, by the hub, that presents to the user a clinical data report comprising the first subset of clinical data retrieved by the hub, wherein the clinical data report lists the plurality of different types of clinical data, generally showing the subset of patient's clinical data falling within some, but not all, of the types, wherein each type of clinical data is shown with an indicator indicating whether the type of clinical data is or is not available for the user to retrieve; enabling the user to select a type of clinical data to be retrieved from the set of spoke sources; retrieving, by the hub, a second subset of the clinical data from at least one spoke source of the set of spoke sources using a second different authentication; and providing a new user interface for the user by including the second subset of the clinical data in the clinical data report.
