First Claim
Patent Images
1. An apparatus, comprising:
- a server computer configured to execute a medical records system and to;
interface with client computing devices over a data network,store a master control file to control interoperability of the medical records system on the server with disparate operating systems of the one or more client computing devices by specifying data access and mapping information between a database of text and medical image data of a medical record of the medical records system and the disparate operating systems of the one or more client computing devices over the data network, based upon respective function engines and application program interfaces for the disparate operating systems of the one or more client computing devices, andserve over the data network multi-form management, device capture management and folder management services of the medical records system for the disparate operation systems of the one or more client computing devices by populating and retrieving information to and from the database of text and medical image data of the medical record responsive to any one of the disparate operating systems of the one or more client computing devices, based upon the specified data access and mapping information of the master control file according to the respective function engines and application program interfaces for the disparate operating systems of the one or more client computing devices.

Abstract
A master control file enables application software to be ported between disparate operating systems of a computer without being updated by interfacing to portability enabling software, which interfaces with the disparate operating systems. Moreover, the application software includes medical software ported to a pocket device using the portability enabling software and the master control file.

13. A method of interfacing one or more client computing devices with a server computer that executes a medical records system over a data network, comprising:
-
storing, by the server computer a master control file to control interoperability of the medical records system on the server with disparate operating systems of the one or more client computing devices by specifying data access and mapping information between a database of text and medical image data of a medical record of the medical records system and the disparate operating systems of the one or more client computing devices over the data network, based upon respective function engines and application program interfaces for the disparate operating systems of the one or more client computing devices; and serving, by the server computer, over the data network multi-form management, device capture management and folder management services of the medical records system for the disparate operation systems of the one or more client computing devices by populating and retrieving information to and from the database of text and medical image data of the medical record responsive to any one of the disparate operating systems of the one or more client computing devices, based upon the specified data access and mapping information of the master control file according to the respective function engines and application program interfaces for the disparate operating systems of the one or more client computing devices. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)

25. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a program executed by a server computer with a medical records system to interface with one or more client computing devices by executing functions comprising:
-
storing by the server computer a master control file to control interoperability of the medical records system on the server with disparate operating systems of the one or more client computing devices by specifying data access and mapping information between a database of text and medical image data of a medical record of the medical records system and the disparate operating systems of the one or more client computing devices over the data network, based upon respective function engines and application program interfaces of the disparate operating systems for the one or more client computing devices; and serving by the server computer over the data network multi-form management, device capture management and folder management services of the medical records system for the disparate operation systems of the one or more client computing devices by populating and retrieving information to and from the database of text and medical image data of the medical record responsive to any one of the disparate operating systems of the one or more client computing devices, based upon the specified data access and mapping information of the master control file according to the respective function engines and application program interfaces for the disparate operating systems of the one or more client computing devices. - View Dependent Claims (26, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36)
