Abstract

Described herein are various technologies pertaining to facilitating digital rights management of patient healthcare records. A computing system executing an electronic health records application (EHR) receives an attribute of a healthcare worker and a patient identifier from a client computing device. The computing system retrieves a computer-readable file for the patient, the computer-readable file comprising a plurality of file records and a file access portion. A file record in the plurality of file records comprises a data portion and an access portion. The computing system transmits data in the data portion to the client computing device only when both the file access portion of the computer-readable file and the access portion of the file record include the attribute of the healthcare worker.
