First Claim
1. A method for performing a computer-assisted data operation on medical patient data comprising:
- receiving patient data prior to a medical procedure;
automatically accessing a first set of data from an integrated knowledge base including data derived from patient-specific data acquired via at least one controllable and prescribable data resource, and non-patient specific data; and
generating a recommendation for a patient data acquisition procedure to be performed prior to the medical procedure.

Abstract
A technique is provided for receiving and processing patient-related data in a medical environment. The patient data is collected prior to and during patient contact, such as in a physician'"'"'s office, clinic or hospital. The data is processed in conjunction with data from an integrated knowledge base to provide recommendations and information to enhance efficiency of the provision of medical care and diagnosis. The recommendations may include additional procedures to be performed prior to or during the patient contact. Patient-specific information, including procedures and educational information, may be crafted based upon the patient'"'"'s data and the additional data from a variety of resources. Reports and guidance may be provided prior to, during or following the patient contact both for the patient, an institution, and physicians and clinicians.
