Abstract
Systems and methods for managing data in compliance with regulated privacy, security, and electronic transaction standards. Implementation of the present invention takes place in association with one or more computer devices that are used in a system to manage data in compliance with regulated privacy, security, and electronic transaction standards. In one implementation, the system includes a single point of entry for external and/or internal requests, and/or a single point of exit for transmissions of information, wherein the transmissions include individually identifiable patient information to legitimate patient-approved requests. Implementation of the present invention further embraces the de-identification of information that may be selectively used and/or sold. The de-identification prevents the identification of patients corresponding to the medical information, thus allowing the information to be useful while still preserving professional confidences. Moreover, implementation of the present invention embraces fully digital authorizations and consents for retrieval from external data sources.
