US 10,950,077 B1 · Secure medical device

Abstract

A secure medical device includes: a hardware storage; a lock coupled to the hardware storage; a data storage and a medical record residing within the hardware storage, the data storage storing a destination location including a first geophysical location; one or more processors; and a non-transitory computer readable medium comprising programming instructions. When the programming instructions are executed by the one or more processors, the one or more processors: (a) receive an access request from a requester to access the medical record; (b) obtain a current location of the secure medical device, the current location comprising a second geophysical location; (c) compare the first geophysical location to the second geophysical location; and (d) upon determining that the second geophysical location matches the first geophysical location, send a command to unlock the lock to allow access to the medical record residing within the hardware storage.
