Gateway conformance validation
A schema is generated to establish a connection between user devices and one or more patient record servers. Generating a schema can include receiving configuration information associated with a patient record gateway, wherein the patient record gateway is associated with one or more patient record servers configured for storing electronic health records for a plurality of patients. Generating a schema can include defining, based at least in part on the configuration information, a schema configured to enable user devices to retrieve, via the patient record gateway, electronic health records from the one or more patient record servers. A schema can be requested by a user device. The schema can be sent to a user device to establish a connection with the one or more patient record servers.
1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
receiving configuration information associated with a patient record gateway, wherein the patient record gateway is associated with one or more patient record servers configured for storing electronic health records for a plurality of patients;
defining, based at least in part on the configuration information, a schema configured to enable user devices to retrieve, via the patient record gateway, electronic health records from the one or more patient record servers;
receiving, from a first user device, a request for connection information for connecting to the one or more patient record servers; and
sending the schema to the first user device to enable the first user device to establish a connection with the one or more patient record servers.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the configuration information includes a gateway conformance statement.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein defining the schema comprises defining the schema based at least in part on parsing the gateway conformance statement.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the schema includes application programming interface (API) information defining a set of function calls for communication between the patient record gateway and the user devices.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the schema is further configured to enable the first user device to download, via the connection with the one or more patient record servers, electronic health records as long as the configuration information associated with the patient record gateway is not updated.
6. The method of claim 5 , further comprising:
generating an updated schema based on updated configuration information associated with the patient record gateway;
receiving, from the first user device, an update request for the updated schema; and
sending the updated schema to the first user device to enable the first user device to establish a new connection with the one or more patient record servers.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein receiving the configuration information comprises receiving the configuration information from a second user device associated with an electronic health record system, wherein the one or more patient record servers and the patient record gateway are associated with the electronic health record system.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the schema defines a protocol for authorization of the first user device to retrieve at least a portion of electronic health records of a patient associated with the first user device.
9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising adding the patient record gateway to a list of supported patient record gateways configured to be accessible by the first user device.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the configuration information is indicative that the patient record gateway passed a configuration test.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the configuration test is a test of one or more capabilities of the patient record gateway using a gateway conformance statement and a set of test patient credentials.
12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the configuration test comprises instructing a test harness to perform the configuration test by simulating authorization of a test patient using the set of test patient credentials and simulating retrieval of a test electronic health record associated with the set of test patient credentials.
13. A system, comprising:
a memory configured to store computer-executable instructions; and
a processor configured to access the memory and execute the computer-executable instructions to at least:
receive configuration information associated with a patient record gateway, wherein the patient record gateway is associated with one or more patient record servers configured for storing electronic health records for a plurality of patients;
define, based at least in part on the configuration information, a schema configured to enable user devices to retrieve, via the patient record gateway, electronic health records from the one or more patient record servers;
receive, from a first user device, a request for connection information for connecting to the one or more patient record servers; and
send the schema to the first user device to enable the first user device to establish a connection with the one or more patient record servers.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the schema is further configured to enable the first user device to download, via the connection with the one or more patient record servers, electronic health records as long as the configuration information associated with the patient record gateway is not updated.
15. The system of claim 14 , wherein the processor is further configured to access the memory and execute the computer-executable instructions to at least:
generate an updated schema based on updated configuration information associated with the patient record gateway;
receive, from the first user device, an update request for the updated schema; and
send the updated schema to the first user device to enable the first user device to establish a new connection with the one or more patient record servers.
16. The system of claim 13 , wherein receiving the configuration information comprises receiving the configuration information from a second user device associated with an electronic health record system, wherein the one or more patient record servers and the patient record gateway are associated with the electronic health record system.
17. One or more non-transitory computer-readable media comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a computer system, cause the computer system to perform operations, comprising:
receiving configuration information associated with a patient record gateway, wherein the patient record gateway is associated with one or more patient record servers configured for storing electronic health records for a plurality of patients;
defining, based at least in part on the configuration information, a schema configured to enable user devices to retrieve, via the patient record gateway, electronic health records from the one or more patient record servers;
receiving, from a first user device, a request for connection information for connecting to the one or more patient record servers; and
sending the schema to the first user device to enable the first user device to establish a connection with the one or more patient record servers.
18. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of claim 17 , wherein the schema defines a protocol for authorization of a patient to retrieve at least a portion of an electronic health record of the patient hosted by the one or more patient record servers.
19. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of claim 17 , wherein the computer-executable instructions cause the computer system to perform further operations comprising adding the patient record gateway to a list of supported patient record gateways configured to be accessible by the first user device.
20. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of claim 17 , wherein the configuration information is indicative that the patient record gateway passed a configuration test.
