| 20110071851 | Method, Apparatus And Computer Program Product For Facilitating Patient Progression Toward Discharge - A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for facilitating patient progression toward discharge. Once a plurality of progression steps to be completed prior to discharge of a patient have been identified, the plurality of progression steps are displayed along with an indication of a status of a respective progression step that indicates whether the respective progression step has been satisfied or remains unsatisfied. The selection of a progression step is then received and, in response, information regarding the selected progression step is displayed. Input data regarding at least one progression step may also be received such that the indication of the status of the at least one progression step may be correspondingly updated. Further, an updated discharge date may be determined based upon the plurality of progression steps and the respective status of the plurality of progression steps as updated based upon the input data. | 03-24-2011 |
| 20100241453 | Method, Apparatus And Computer Program Product For Displaying And Permitting Revision Of A Potential Interaction - A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for displaying and permitting revision of a potential interaction with a medication under consideration for prescription to a patient. Initially, one or more potential interactions may be identified between a medication and one or more of a different medication, an allergy or a patient condition. The potential interactions may then be displayed with an indication of the type of potential interaction and the severity of the potential interaction. An input mechanism may be provided that is associated with the display of each potential interaction and that is configured to receive user input indicative of a change in one or more of the different medication, the allergy or the patient condition. Based upon this change, the potential interactions may be revised. | 09-23-2010 |
| 20100223221 | METHOD, APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR LOADING CONTENT ITEMS - An apparatus for loading content items may include a processor that may be configured to identify at least one rule associated with a type associated with a content item. The processor may further be configured to evaluate at least one attribute associated with the content item against the at least one rule. The processor may also be configured to identify a container based at least in part on the at least one rule, and store the content item in the identified container based at least in part on the evaluation of the at least one attribute against the at least one rule. A corresponding method and computer program product may also be provided. | 09-02-2010 |
| 20100191776 | METHODS, COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS, AND APPARATUSES FOR DISPERSING CONTENT ITEMS - An apparatus for dispersing content may include a processor. The processor may be configured to receive a request associated with a content item and generate a hashed identifier based at least in part on the request associated with the content item. The processor may further be configured to generate a respective container within a hierarchy of one or more containers based at least in part on the hashed identifier and store the content item in one of the one or more containers based at least in part on the hashed identifier. Associated methods and computer program products may also be provided. | 07-29-2010 |
| 20090282133 | SYSTEM, APPARATUS, METHOD AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR CONFIGURING DISPARATE WORKSTATIONS - A system, apparatus, method and computer program product are provided for configuring disparate workstations. In particular, an administrative utility is provided that may allow users to upload to a configuration server individual configuration files for applications executing on workstations associated with physiological devices. Once uploaded, a user may group the configuration files into configuration groups based, for example, on similarities in configurations utilized. Once a configuration group has been created, the user may assign one or more workstations to each configuration group. Upon startup of a workstation, an application executing on the workstation may automatically transmit a request to the configuration server to load the configurations for that workstation. In response, the configuration server may determine to which configuration group the workstation has been assigned, and then download the configuration files of that configuration group to the workstation. The downloaded configuration files may then control the behavior of the application. | 11-12-2009 |
| 20090164376 | Systems and Methods for Controlled Substance Prescription Monitoring Via Real Time Claims Network - Embodiments of the invention can provide systems and methods for controlled substance prescription monitoring via a real time claims network. In one embodiment, a method for facilitating real-time processing of claims associated with one or more controlled substances can be provided. The method can include receiving a plurality of claims from a claims transaction switch, wherein each of the claims relates to both at least one predefined provider and at least one monitored controlled substance. In addition, the method can include validating some or all of the plurality of claims. Furthermore, the method can include formatting and transmitting data from validated claims to a prescription monitoring program system. | 06-25-2009 |
| 20090157426 | METHODS, APPARATUSES & COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS FOR FACILITATING EFFICIENT DISTRIBUTION OF DATA WITHIN A SYSTEM - A method, apparatus, system and computer program product are provided for facilitating connection of source devices that are capable of generating data to one or more destination devices which may receive the generated data.
