1. A system for remotely programming a patient medical device (PMD), comprising:

  • a non-regulated user interface configured to receive caregiver-selected programming instructions, wherein the non-regulated user interface is configured to limit the selection of programming instructions to a subset of all possible PMD instructions that are appropriate for programming remotely;

    a regulated device configured to translate the caregiver-selected programming instructions specified remotely at the non-regulated user interface into commands formatted for the patient medical device to control functionality thereof, and to check correctness of the PMD-formatted commands;

    a signing device to digitally sign the PMD-formatted commands prior to transmittal; and

    a remote programming device configured to control application of the PMD-formatted commands to the PMD during a programming session initiated and performed remotely, wherein the remote programming device confirms application of the PMD-formatted commands through interrogation of the PMD to verify the functionality modified.
