Abstract

A computer-implemented includes receiving, from one or more contributing channels, medical data; assigning the received medical data to one or more data silos; and generating a graphical user interface that when rendered on a display device renders a visual representation of a patient portal, with the patient portal including: one or more visual representations of the one or more data silos for data associated with a user that requested the patient portal.

Claims

1. A computer-implemented method comprising:

receiving, from one or more contributing channels, medical data;

assigning the received medical data to one or more data silos; and

generating a graphical user interface that when rendered on a display device renders a visual representation of a patient portal, with the patient portal comprising;

one or more visual representations of the one or more data silos for data associated with a user that requested the patient portal.

2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising:

receiving a request for the patient portal; and

identifying, from the request, an identity of the user requesting the patient portal.

3. The computer-implemented method of claim 2, further comprising:

querying, at least partly based on the identity of the user, the one or more data silos for medical data associated with the user.

4. The computer-implemented method of claim 3, further comprising:

receiving, based on querying, data associated with the user that requested the patient portal, and wherein the one or more visual representations of the one or more data silos comprise one or more visual representations of the received data.

5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the one or more data silos are configured to store a particular type of medical data for a plurality of users.

6. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising:

parsing the received medical data;

identifying, based on parsing, one or more types of medical data in the received medical data;

for at least one of the identified types of medical data, determining a data silo configured to store the identified type of medical data; and

assigning to the determined data silo the at least one identified type of medical data.

7. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the graphical user interface dynamically displays the data silos and is generated in real-time.

8. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising:

performing one or more pre-processing operations on the received medical data, wherein the one or more pre-processing operations comprise one or more of;

using the received medical data in generating one or more discrete data elements;

or

indexing the received medical data in a search engine.

9. One or more machine-readable media configured to store instructions that are executable by one or more processing devices to perform operations comprising:

receiving, from one or more contributing channels, medical data;

assigning the received medical data to one or more data silos; and

generating a graphical user interface that when rendered on a display device renders a visual representation of a patient portal, with the patient portal comprising;

one or more visual representations of the one or more data silos for data associated with a user that requested the patient portal.

10. The one or more machine-readable media of claim 9, wherein the operations further comprise:

receiving a request for the patient portal; and

identifying, from the request, an identity of the user requesting the patient portal.

11. The one or more machine-readable media of claim 10, wherein the operations further comprise:

querying, at least partly based on the identity of the user, the one or more data silos for medical data associated with the user.

12. The one or more machine-readable media of claim 11, wherein the operations further comprise:

receiving, based on querying, data associated with the user that requested the patient portal, and wherein the one or more visual representations of the one or more data silos comprise one or more visual representations of the received data.

13. The one or more machine-readable media of claim 9, wherein the one or more data silos are configured to store a particular type of medical data for a plurality of users.

14. The one or more machine-readable media of claim 9, wherein the operations further comprise:

parsing the received medical data;

identifying, based on parsing, one or more types of medical data in the received medical data;

for at least one of the identified types of medical data, determining a data silo configured to store the identified type of medical data; and

assigning to the determined data silo the at least one identified type of medical data.

15. An electronic system comprising:

one or more processing devices; and

one or more machine-readable media configured to store instructions that are executable by the one or more processing devices to perform operations comprising;

receiving, from one or more contributing channels, medical data;

assigning the received medical data to one or more data silos; and

generating a graphical user interface that when rendered on a display device renders a visual representation of a patient portal, with the patient portal comprising;

one or more visual representations of the one or more data silos for data associated with a user that requested the patient portal.

16. The electronic system of claim 15, wherein the operations further comprise:

receiving a request for the patient portal; and

identifying, from the request, an identity of the user requesting the patient portal.

17. The electronic system of claim 16, wherein the operations further comprise:

querying, at least partly based on the identity of the user, the one or more data silos for medical data associated with the user.

18. The electronic system of claim 17, wherein the operations further comprise:

receiving, based on querying, data associated with the user that requested the patient portal, and wherein the one or more visual representations of the one or more data silos comprise one or more visual representations of the received data.

19. The electronic system of claim 15, wherein the one or more data silos are configured to store a particular type of medical data for a plurality of users.

20. The electronic system of claim 15, wherein the operations further comprise:

parsing the received medical data;

identifying, based on parsing, one or more types of medical data in the received medical data;

for at least one of the identified types of medical data, determining a data silo configured to store the identified type of medical data; and

assigning to the determined data silo the at least one identified type of medical data.
