1. A computing system comprising:
- at least one processor; and
memory that has an application loaded therein, wherein the application, when executed by the at least one processor, is configured to perform acts comprising;
responsive to receipt of an identifier of a patient;
retrieving clinical data about the patient based upon the identifier of the patient, the clinical data being accessible by the application and identifies health problem of the patient;
applying a rule for a genetic disorder to the health problem identified in the clinical data;
determining using the rule that the patient is a candidate for genetic testing for the genetic disorder;
causing graphical data to be presented on a display of a computing device, the graphical data indicating to a clinician that the patient is a candidate for genetic testing for the genetic disorder;
based upon determining that the patient is a candidate for genetic testing for the genetic disorder, transmitting an order for a genetic test for the genetic disorder to a genetics lab computing device that is in network communication with the computing system;
receiving results for the genetic test from the genetics lab computing device; and
causing a visualization based upon the results to be presented on the display of the computing device, wherein the visualization is based on a relationship between;
a body system affected by the genetic disorder;
the genetic disorder; and
a genetic mutation associated with the genetic disorder, and further wherein the visualization comprises;
a first group of icons assigned to body systems of the patient, the body system that is affected by the genetic disorder is included in the body systems;
a second group of icons assigned to genetic disorders of the body systems, the genetic disorder is included in the genetic disorders; and
a third group of icons assigned to genetic mutations that cause the genetic disorders, the genetic mutation that is associated with the genetic disorder that is tested for in the genetic test is included in the genetic mutations,wherein the relationship is indicated in the visualization by a visually perceptible connection between a first icon corresponding to the body system from the first group, a second icon corresponding to the genetic disorder from the second group, and a third icon corresponding to the genetic mutation from the third group, the relationship being between the body system, the genetic disorder, and the genetic mutation.

Abstract
Described herein are various technologies pertaining an electronic health record application (EHR). The EHR has a rules engine that is configured to execute a plurality of rules corresponding to respective genetic disorders. The rules receive clinical data as input, and each rule is configured to output an indication as to whether or not a patient is a candidate for genetic testing for a genetic disorder.

8. A method executed by at least one computer processor of a computing system, the method comprising:
-
responsive to receipt of an identifier of a patient; retrieving clinical data about the patient based upon the identifier of that identifies a health problem of the patient; applying a rule for a genetic disorder to the health problem identified in the clinical data; determining using the rule that the patient is a candidate for genetic testing for the genetic disorder; causing graphical data to be presented on a display of a computing device, the graphical data indicating to a clinician that the patient is a candidate for genetic testing for the genetic disorder; based upon determining that the patient is a candidate for genetic testing for the genetic disorder, transmitting an order for a genetic test for the genetic disorder to a genetics lab computing device that is in network communication with the computing system; receiving results for the genetic test from the genetics lab computing device; and causing a visualization based upon the results to be presented on the display of the computing device, wherein the visualization is based upon a relationship between; a body system affected by the genetic disorder; the genetic disorder; and a genetic mutation associated with the genetic disorder, and further wherein the visualization comprises; a first group of icons assigned to body systems of the patient, the body system that is affected by the genetic disorder is included in the body systems; a second group of icons assigned to genetic disorders of the body systems the genetic disorder is included in the genetic disorders; and a third group of icons assigned to genetic mutations that cause the genetic disorders, the genetic mutation tested for in the genetic test that is associated with the genetic disorder is included in the genetic mutations, wherein the relationship is indicated in the visualization by a visually perceptible connection between a first icon corresponding to the body system from the first group, a second icon corresponding to the genetic disorder from the second group, and a third icon corresponding to the genetic mutation from the third group, the relationship being between the body system, the genetic disorder, and the genetic mutation. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed by at least one processor of a computing system, cause the at least one processor to perform acts comprising:
-
responsive to receipt of an identifier of a patient; retrieving clinical data about the patient based upon the identifier of the patient that identifies a health problem of the patient; applying a rule for a genetic disorder to the clinical data; determining, using the rule, that the patient is a candidate for genetic testing for the genetic disorder; causing graphical data to be presented on a display of a computing device, the graphical data indicating to a clinician that the patient is a candidate for genetic testing for the genetic disorder; based upon determining that the patient is a candidate for genetic testing for the genetic disorder, transmitting an order for a genetic test for the genetic disorder to a genetics lab computing device that is in network communication with the computing system; receiving results for the genetic test from the genetics lab computing device; and causing a visualization based upon the results to be presented on the display of the computing device, wherein the visualization is based upon a relationship between; a body system affected by the genetic disorder; the genetic disorder; and a genetic mutation associated with the genetic disorder, and further wherein the visualization comprises; a first group of icons assigned to body systems of the patient, the body system that is affected by the genetic disorder is included in the body systems; a second group of icons assigned to genetic disorders of the body systems the genetic disorder is included in the genetic disorders; and a third group of icons assigned to genetic mutations that cause the genetic disorders, the genetic mutation tested for in the genetic test that is associated with the genetic disorder is included in the genetic mutations, wherein the relationship is indicated in the visualization by a visually perceptible connection between a first icon corresponding to the body system from the first group, a second icon corresponding to the genetic disorder from the second group, and a third icon corresponding to the genetic mutation from the third group, the relationship being between the body system, the genetic disorder, and the genetic mutation. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
