Method for Generating and Using a Portable Patient File

摘要

A method for generating and using a portable patient file may include entering data relating to a patient into a computer and storing the patient data in a medical record for the patient in a database using metadata in an adaptive data environment. The computer is configured to instantiate a file configured for import or export of the patient data, and the file is capable of transferring the patient data from the database to another database with preservation of semantic meanings associated with the patient data.
