A system for providing medical information to a patient is provided. The system includes a medical information server, including a software engine, coupled to a memory location. The memory location stores a plurality of voice mailboxes. A voice mailbox includes at least two segments. A first segment for test results, or an upload-source note, and a second segment for account owner information, or a chart note. An upload-source, such as a testing facility or laboratory, is coupled to the server and provides test results to the mailbox. An interactive voice response (IVR) software interface is also coupled to the engine. The IVR provides the medical information in the mailbox responsive to a user input. The system may also include a patient database. Further, the engine generates alerts to the account owner based upon particular events. The system is also configured to prevent conflicting accesses by users. The system is convenient to use due to reporting features and an identifier function used to locate particular voice mailboxes.

A automated patient information retrieval system is provided for notifying patients of medical information. The automated patient information retrieval system includes a processor coupled to memory and a telephone interface circuitry. A processor is also coupled to a modem and an I/O interface. The system allows for a medical provider to enter medical information into voice mailboxes. The messages many be time-sensitive wherein the system automatically calls patients to notify of pending medical information in voice mailboxes. The patient then may telephone the system to receive a medical message stored in a patient mailbox. Medical providers may generate custom voice messages or enter predetermined bulletin codes associated with pre-recorded voice messages. Also, medical providers can enter notes associated with medical voice mailboxes which are only accessible by the medical provider. Message integrity and security are enhanced by requiring the patient to enter both a patient identification number and a medical provider identification number.
