Apparatus and Method for Building an Electronic Form
First Claim
1. An apparatus that creates an electronic form used to chronicle a healthcare interaction between a patient and healthcare provider, the apparatus comprising:
- a repository that stores form control data objects, each of the form control data objects enabling user data entry of information associated with a respective aspect of the healthcare interaction;
a form processor that acquires form control data objects associated with a particular healthcare interaction from said repository and generates form creation data including the acquired form control data objects and a formatting grid, said formatting grid receives at least one of the acquired form control data objects; and
a user interface generator that generates a form creation user interface using the form creation data received from the form processor that enables a user to selectively position the at least one of the acquired form control data objects within the formatting grid in a desired position.

Abstract
A system and method for creating an electronic form used to chronicle a healthcare interaction between a patient and healthcare provider is provided. A repository stores form control data objects, each of the form control data objects enabling user data entry of information associated with a respective aspect of the healthcare interaction. A form processor acquires form control data objects associated with a particular healthcare interaction from the repository and generates form creation data including the acquired form control data objects and a formatting grid, the formatting grid receives at least one of the acquired form control data objects. A user interface generator generates a form creation user interface using the form creation data received from the form processor that enables a user to selectively position the at least one of the acquired form control data objects within the formatting grid in a desired position.
