Patient callback tool and interface

Abstract

A user interface for a physician or other health care provider to follow up with high-risk patients recently discharged from the emergency department (ED) and update the patient's health care record using the physician or provider's mobile or end user device is described. The user interface is generated after extracting patient detail batch information at a pre-defined time interval for one or more past patients from an electronic medical records (EMR) database or other patient information database into a medical activity tracking batch database, and constructing a real-time database from streams of real-time Health Level 7 (HL7) clinical administrative data, wherein at least one stream of real-time HL7 clinical administrative data is associated with at least one high-risk patient in a recent medical encounter and at least one stream of real-time HL7 data comprises daily schedule information associating at least one clinician with the at least one high-risk patient.
