Abstract
A method for securely transmitting medical data to and from a remote location includes configuring a first electronic computing device with provisioning information to access a firewall-protected electronic data network. Medical data is received at the first electronic computing device from a second electronic computing device. The medical data is transmitted to the firewall-protected electronic data network using the first electronic computing device. The provisioning information permits a secure connection between the second electronic computing device and a third electronic computing device on the firewall-protected electronic data network.
