Patent Images
1. A medical health record system for maintaining information and data unique to multiple individual patients sourced from multiple independent sources comprising:
- a central server;
at least two independent input devices for transmitting input data and information;
a network connecting the input devices to the server for transmission and storage of data and information, said data and information including an identification code unique to the source of the data and information, and an identification code unique to each individual patient; and
a processor in the network capable of discriminating said input data and information for storage and retrieval on the basis of a hierarchy comprising;
a) the source of the data and informationb) the individual correlated to the data and informationc) data and information capable of processing by a machine algorithm andd) data and information not capable or processing by a machine algorithm;
said processor further capable of initiating and maintaining storage and algorithmic processing of categories a), b) and c) of the data and information, enabling access to the data and information in accord with said hierarchy.

Abstract
A system that creates a national health information infrastructure provides secure storage and retrieval of personal health information (PHI) while allowing health care providers to retain their preferred method of documentation (handwriting) for the majority of their documentation requirements. Unique codes associated with each handwritten document allow rapid access to the individual patient'"'"'s PHI by healthcare providers. These unique codes also allow the system to associate the images of PHI documents with the individual (e.g. patient) to whom the PHI pertains.
