Abstract
A method is provided for facilitating messaging upon a network involving a physician(s), a patient(s) and a workflow engine. Each physician and patient may operate a computer for receiving/sending messages upon the network. The workflow engine may also access the network for receiving/sending messages. The method may include using a first medical message wizard by the patient on a computer, a medical profiler process performed by the workflow engine and a second medical message wizard usable by a first physician on a computer. Additionally, a service provider(s) and a client(s) may operate a computer for receiving/sending messages upon the network and a service-flow engine may access the network for receiving/sending messages. The method may further include using a first service message interface by the client on a computer, a service profiler process performed by the service-flow engine and a second service message interface usable by a first service provider.
