1. A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a processor, a recipient communications address associated with a communication;
querying, by the processor, an electronic database for the recipient communications address, the electronic database having electronic associations between different location data and different communications addresses including the recipient communications address;
retrieving, from the electronic database, global positioning system information having an electronic association with the recipient communications address;
querying, by the processor, an electronic hospital map for the global positioning system information associated with the recipient communications address;
retrieving, from a memory, a surgery schedule associated with the recipient communications address;
determining, by the processor, the global positioning system information maps to a surgical room in which the surgery schedule indicates a surgery is scheduled at a time of receipt associated with the communication; and
selecting, by the processor in response to the surgery, an alternate destination address to the recipient communications address.

Abstract
Methods, systems, and products enable a healthcare facility or server to process incoming communications. When a communication is received, the time and a recipient'"'"'s address may be compared to a schedule of procedures. The recipient'"'"'s address may be associated with a patient or with medical personnel, such as a physician or nurse. If the time and the recipient'"'"'s address match an entry in the schedule of procedures, then an alternate destination may be chosen for the communication.

8. A system, comprising:
-
a processor; and a memory storing code that when executed causes the processor to perform operations, the operations comprising; receiving a recipient'"'"'s communications address as a destination of a communication; querying an electronic database for the recipient'"'"'s communications address, the electronic database having electronic associations between different location data and different communications addresses including the recipient'"'"'s communications address; retrieving global positioning system information having an electronic association with the recipient'"'"'s communications address; querying an electronic hospital map for the global positioning system information associated with the recipient'"'"'s communications address; retrieving a surgery schedule associated with the recipient'"'"'s communications address; determining the global positioning system information maps to a surgical room in which the surgery schedule indicates a surgery is scheduled at a time of receipt associated with the communication; and routing the communication to an alternate destination address in response to the global positioning system information. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A memory device storing instructions that when executed cause a processor to perform operations, the operations comprising:
-
receiving a destination communications address associated with a communication; determining an availability to a wireless network providing wireless service to a wireless device associated with the recipient'"'"'s communications address; determining a location associated with the wireless service provided by the wireless network; retrieving a surgery schedule associated with the destination communications address; determining the location associated with the wireless service maps to a surgical room in which the surgery schedule indicates a surgery is scheduled at a time of receipt associated with the communication; and routing the communication to an alternate destination address in response to the location associated with the wireless service. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
