1. A method for obtaining physiological data from a medical sensor device, the method comprising:

  • detecting a proximity of the medical sensor device by an electronic computing device, wherein the electronic computing device is a mobile computing monitoring device;

    after the proximity is detected, receiving a message from the medical sensor device;

    determining whether the received message includes configuration information for a wireless communication link, wherein the configuration information includes data used to initiate a wireless connection;

    in response to determining that the received message includes the configuration information for the wireless communication link;

    using the wireless communication link to receive physiological data from the medical sensor device; and

    processing the received physiological data by the electronic computing device; and

    when the received message does not include configuration information for the wireless communication link;

    determining whether the received message includes physiological data; and

    in response to determining that the received message includes the physiological data, processing the physiological data at the electronic computing device.
