INTEGRATED HEALTH CARE SYSTEM FOR MANAGING MEDICAL DEVICE INFORMATION
First Claim
1. A system for managing devices, comprising:
- a data interchange interface configured to receive a medical device inventory transaction from one or more remote clinical sites, the data interchange interface comprising a first set of one or more processing devices configured to execute;
a business rules module configured to determine whether data in the medical device inventory transaction is complete, anda data transfer module configured to forward the medical device inventory transaction to a computing device; and
a medical device management system configured to receive the medical device inventory transaction from the data transfer module, the medical device management system comprising a second set of one or more processing devices configured to execute;
a device purchase module configured identify from the medical device inventory transaction a purchase request, configured to generate a purchase invoice based on the transaction, and configured to transmit the invoice to the data interchange interface.

Abstract
Computer-implemented systems and methods for managing information include one or more client terminal devices in communication with a data interchange system. In one instance, the data interchange system may facilitate communication between a device manufacturer and a clinical site. One or more of the client terminals devices may be configured to: (a) collect the medical device information from the medical device; (b) transmit the medical device information to the medical device manufacturer and/or the clinical site via the interchange system; and (c) receive information from the medical device manufacturer and/or the clinical site via the interchange system. The client terminal device may be further configured to: (d) activate, deactivate or configure a medical device.
