Abstract

Certain examples provide role-based navigation interface systems and methods. An example apparatus includes a rules engine including rules for workflow execution and interface generation. The example apparatus includes an interface engine to generate a graphical user interface based on a role of a user and one or more rules. The interface engine is to at least: query the rules engine to provide the one or more rules based on the role; retrieve content based on the role and the one or more rules; dynamically generate the graphical user interface showing a first view based on the retrieved content arranged according to the role and the one or more rules; facilitate execution of a healthcare workflow by the user via the graphical user interface; and toggle between the first view and a second view, the second view dynamically generated based on the retrieved content arranged according to the role and the one or more rules.

Claims (39)

1 . An apparatus comprising:

a rules engine including rules for workflow execution and interface generation; and

an interface engine to generate a graphical user interface based on a role of a user and one or more rules, the interface engine to at least:

query the rules engine to provide the one or more rules based on the role;

retrieve content based on the role and the one or more rules;

dynamically generate the graphical user interface showing a first view based on the retrieved content arranged according to the role and the one or more rules;

facilitate execution of a healthcare workflow by the user via the graphical user interface; and

toggle between the first view and a second view, the second view dynamically generated based on the retrieved content arranged according to the role and the one or more rules.

2 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first view includes at least one of a macro view across a healthcare facility and a micro view of a particular patient, and wherein the second view includes at least one of the macro view and the micro view.

3 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the interface engine maintains content and context in toggling between the first view and the second view.

4 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the user includes a patient.

5 . The apparatus of claim 4 , wherein the first view includes a micro view of the patient and wherein the second view includes a macro view associated with a provider, the user restricted to a subset of the macro view related to the user.

6 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the one or more rules includes a rule correlating display of at least one of the first view or the second view to a phase of the healthcare workflow.

7 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the role includes at least one of patient, biller, provider, front desk, or nursing staff.

8 . A computer-implemented method comprising:

identifying, by executing an instruction using a processor, a role associated with a user;

querying, by executing an instruction using the processor, a rules engine to provide one or more rules based on the role;

retrieving, by executing an instruction using the processor, content based on the role and the one or more rules;

dynamically generating, by executing an instruction using the processor, a graphical user interface showing a first view based on the retrieved content arranged according to the role and the one or more rules;

facilitating, by executing an instruction using the processor, execution of a healthcare workflow by the user via the graphical user interface; and

toggling, by executing an instruction using the processor, between the first view and a second view, the second view dynamically generated based on the retrieved content arranged according to the role and the one or more rules.

9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the first view includes at least one of a macro view across a healthcare facility and a micro view of a particular patient, and wherein the second view includes at least one of the macro view and the micro view.

10 . The method of claim 9 , wherein content and context are maintained in toggling between the first view and the second view.

11 . The method of claim 8 , wherein querying further includes querying the rules engine to provide one or more rules based on the role and the first view.

12 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the user is a patient, wherein the first view includes a micro view of the patient, and wherein the second view includes a macro view associated with a provider, the user restricted to a subset of the macro view related to the user.

13 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the one or more rules includes a rule correlating display of at least one of the first view or the second view to a phase of the healthcare workflow.

14 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the role includes at least one of patient, biller, provider, front desk, or nursing staff.

15 . A tangible computer-readable storage medium including instructions which, when executed, particularly configure a processor to at least:

identify a role associated with a user;

query a rules engine to provide one or more rules based on the role;

retrieve content based on the role and the one or more rules;

dynamically generate a graphical user interface showing a first view based on the retrieved content arranged according to the role and the one or more rules;

facilitate execution of a healthcare workflow by the user via the graphical user interface; and

toggle between the first view and a second view, the second view dynamically generated based on the retrieved content arranged according to the role and the one or more rules.

16 . The storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the first view includes at least one of a macro view across a healthcare facility and a micro view of a particular patient, and wherein the second view includes at least one of the macro view and the micro view.

17 . The storage medium of claim 15 , wherein content and context are maintained in toggling between the first view and the second view.

18 . The storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the processor is to query the rules engine to provide one or more rules based on the role and the first view.

19 . The storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the one or more rules includes a rule correlating display of at least one of the first view or the second view to a phase of the healthcare workflow.

20 . The storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the role includes at least one of patient, biller, provider, front desk, or nursing staff.
