HEALTHCARE INFORMATION SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING ACCESS TO A DATA PROJECTION

摘要

A healthcare information system, method and computer program product are provided to receive, process and output healthcare data in compliance with data use restrictions associated with the healthcare data, even in instances in which data projections are assembled from the data elements. In regards to a healthcare information system, processing circuitry is configured to assemble the data projection from a plurality of data elements. At least some data elements have different data use restrictions associated therewith. The processing circuitry is also configured to determine a combined data use restriction for the data projection based upon the data use restrictions of the data elements from which the data projection is assembled. The processing circuitry is further configured to associate metadata with the data projection including the combined data use restriction. Further, the processing circuitry is configured to control access to the data projection in accordance with the combined data use restriction.

1. A health care information system configured to control access to a data projection, the health care information system comprising processing circuitry configured to:
assemble the data projection from a plurality of data elements, wherein at least some of the data elements have different data use restrictions associated therewith; determine a combined data use restriction for the data projection based upon the data use restrictions of the data elements from which the data projection is assembled; associate metadata with the data projection, wherein the metadata includes the combined data use restriction; and control access to the data projection in accordance with the combined data use restriction maintained by the metadata associated with the data projection.
