Abstract
A health information exchange (HIE) system and related methods for sharing patient medical data among a plurality of users. In one embodiment, the HIE system includes a processor executing a software application and one or more databases. Medical data may be downloaded by a first user to the system in a source file format. The system converts and stores the medical data in a data record such as an object having a different type of data structure. Upon receiving a request from a second user for the medical data in a specified destination file format, the system retrieves and converts the object containing the medical data into the specified destination file format, and sends the destination file to the second user. The source and destination file formats may be the same or different. In one embodiment, users may access and communicate with the HIE system via the Internet.
