1. A system for providing automatic setup of a remote patient care environment, comprising:
- a first remote interface to confirm connectivity over a network connection to a centralized server;
a configuration module on a patient management device to induce data reporting to the patient management device for a patient by wirelessly connectable monitoring devices through control provided through a user interface,wherein the induced data reporting establishes an initial connection between each of the monitoring devices and the patient management device,wherein the induced data reporting causes the configuration module to execute an automated setup procedure enabling the initial connection and subsequent connections between each of the monitoring devices and the patient management device;
a lookup module configured to;
register each of the monitoring devices on a list of devices having permission for access as each monitoring device attempts to establish the initial wireless connection and report the data conditioned on permission for access; and
look up each of the monitoring devices on the list of devices having permission for access as each monitoring device attempts to establish subsequent wireless connections and report the data conditioned on permission for access; and
a second remote interface to wirelessly connect with each of the monitoring devices upon granting of the permission for access and to subsequently receive the data over the initial wireless connection; and
wherein one or more of the monitoring devices are reconfigured by specifying operational parameters to the device.

Abstract
A system and method for providing automatic setup of a remote patient care environment. Connectivity to a centralized server over a network connection is confirmed. Data reporting for a patient by one or more monitoring devices that are wirelessly connectable is induced through control provided through a user interface. Each of the devices is registered as the device attempts to establish a wireless connection and report the data conditioned on permission for access. Upon granting of the permission for access, the device is wirelessly connected and the data is subsequently received over the wireless connection.

16. A method for providing automatic setup of a remote patient care environment, comprising:
-
confirming connectivity over a network connection to a centralized server; inducing data reporting to a patient management device for a patient by wirelessly connectable monitoring devices through control provided through a user interface, wherein inducing data reporting establishes an initial connection between each of the monitoring devices and the patient management device and causes an automated setup procedure for enabling the initial connection and subsequent connections between each of the monitoring devices and the patient management device; registering each of the monitoring devices on a list of devices having permission for access as each of the monitoring devices attempts to establish a-wireless-the initial connection and report the data conditioned on permission for access; looking up each of the monitoring devices on the list of devices having permission for access as each monitoring device attempts to establish subsequent wireless connections and report the data conditioned on permission for access; and wirelessly connecting with the monitoring device upon granting of the permission for access and subsequently receiving the data over the wireless connection; and reconfiguring one or more of the monitoring devices by specifying operational parameters to the device. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)

31. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium holding code for performing the steps of:
-
confirming connectivity over a network connection to a centralized server; inducing data reporting directly to a patient management device for a patient by wirelessly connectable monitoring devices through control provided through a user interface, wherein inducing data reporting establishes an initial connection between each of the monitoring automated setup procedure for enabling the initial connection and subsequent connections between each of the monitoring devices and the patient management device; registering each of the monitoring devices on a list of devices having permission for conditioned on permission for access; looking up each of the monitoring devices on the list of devices having permission for access as each monitoring device attempts to establish subsequent wireless connections and report the data conditioned on permission for access; and wirelessly connecting with each monitoring device upon granting of the permission for access and subsequently receiving the data over the wireless connection; and reconfiguring one or more of the monitoring devices by specifying operational parameters to the device.
