Abstract
A drug interaction utility can retrieve the patient's current medications from a medication information card on the smart card by interacting with an identity selector on the provider's computer. The identity selector can transmit the current medications to the drug interaction utility without disclosing any information about the current medications to the provider and without disclosing any information identifying the patient to the drug interaction utility.
