1. A medical data access system, the medical data access system comprising:
- a system controller communicably coupled to a gateway controller;
wherein the gateway controller includes a first processor and a first computer readable medium, and wherein the first computer readable medium includes instructions executable by the first processor to;
receive a data set comprising objective data collected by a physician;
receive a data set comprising subjective data collected by a physician;
communicate at least a portion of the objective data collected by the physician to the system controller;
communicate at least a portion of the subjective data collected by the physician to the system controller; and
wherein the system controller includes a second processor and a second computer readable medium, and wherein the second computer readable medium includes instructions executable by the second processor to;
receive a data set in a first format from an implantable medical device;
store the data stream in the first format to a raw database;
identify a group associated with the implantable medical device, wherein the group is one of a plurality of groups;
select an interpreter associated with the group;
apply the interpreter to the data stream, wherein the data stream is converted from the first format to a second format;
store at least a portion of the converted data set in the second format to a database associated with the gateway controller;
validate the portion of the objective data collected by the physician; and
validate the portion of the subjective data collected by the physician.
