System and method for making patient records follow a physician

Abstract

A computer-based system for providing physicians automatic, secure access to patient records at the time a patient visits and consults a physician. The system can include one or more computing devices configured to process and display data. The system can also include one or more emitting devices carried by physicians for identifying each particular physician and one or more scanning devices configured to detect and communicatively link to the one or more emitting devices based on the proximity of the physician to an examination room. Additionally, the system can include a manager module communicatively linked to the one or more scanning devices and configured to manage the signal data from the one or more scanning devices. Furthermore, the system can also include one or more servers communicatively linked with the one or more computing devices, one or more scanning devices, and manager module, the one or more servers configured to authenticate and register a particular patient upon a visit to a hospital or office, synchronize the particular physician identifier, patient identifier, personal wellness electronic record (PWER), and examination room identifier based upon physician's proximity to an examination room, initiate a physician-patient session at the at least one computing device at the examination room, transfer the PWER to the at least one computing device at the examination room, and automatically terminate the physician-patient session and receive the PWER based upon the physician leaving the proximity of the examination room.
