Automatic updating of care team assignments in electronic health record systems based on data from voice communication systems

Abstract:

Various embodiments enable updating care team assignments data in multiple systems of a hospital. Various embodiments may include receiving by a first server a first message including information corresponding to a hospital personnel assignment for a predetermined location within a hospital, determining, by the first server, whether a hospital personnel assignment data record corresponding to the predetermined location within the hospital reflects a current hospital personnel assignment for the predetermined location within the hospital based on whether the first message is received from a second server or a third server, and updating, by the first server, the hospital personnel assignment data record to include the information corresponding to the hospital personnel assignment for the predetermined location within the hospital included in the first message in response to determining that the hospital personnel assignment data record does not reflect the current hospital personnel assignment for the predetermined location.
