Methods and systems for analyzing accessing of medical data

A computer-implemented method for detecting a breach in access of electronic patient data, the method comprising:

• receiving, by one or more processors of a patient privacy monitoring server, access data from a plurality of electronic patient data access devices situated at various locations, the access data comprising a plurality of electronic patient data access events by one or more employees;
• applying, by the one or more processors, at least one rule of a plurality of rules to the access data to determine at least one electronic patient data access event of the plurality of electronic patient data access events that constitutes at least one possible breach of electronic patient data, wherein the plurality of rules correspond to detected common data among the access data and human resources (HR) data;
• detecting, by the one or more processors, that the at least one possible breach of the electronic patient data is inconsistent with at least one data pattern of a plurality of data patterns, wherein the plurality of data patterns correspond to a plurality of detected commonalities in the access data;
• in response to the detecting, generating, by the one or more processors, an alert associated with the at least one electronic patient data access event of the plurality of electronic patient data access events that constitutes the at least one possible breach of electronic patient data;
• and
• causing to display, by the one or more processors, the alert on a user interface of a user device.

A system for detecting a breach in access of electronic patient data, the system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more computer readable storage media storing instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
• receiving access data from a plurality of electronic patient data access devices situated at various locations, the access data comprising a plurality of electronic patient data access events by one or more employees;
• applying at least one rule of a plurality of rules to the access data to determine at least one electronic patient data access event of the plurality of electronic patient data access events that constitutes at least one possible breach of electronic patient data, wherein the plurality of rules correspond to detected common data among the access data and human resources (HR) data;
• detecting that the at least one possible breach of the electronic patient data is inconsistent with at least one data pattern of a plurality of data patterns, wherein the plurality of data patterns correspond to a plurality of detected commonalities in the access data;
• in response to the detecting, generating an alert associated with the at least one electronic patient data access event of the plurality of electronic patient data access events that constitutes the at least one possible breach of electronic patient data;
• and
• causing to display the alert on a user interface of a user device.

A non-transitory computer readable media storing instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations for detecting a breach in access of electronic patient data, the operations comprising:

• receiving access data from a plurality of electronic patient data access devices situated at various locations, the access data comprising a plurality of electronic patient data access events by one or more employees;
• applying at least one rule of a plurality of rules to the access data to determine at least one electronic patient data access event of the plurality of electronic patient data access events that constitutes at least one possible breach of electronic patient data, wherein the plurality of rules correspond to detected common data among the access data and human resources (HR) data;
• detecting that the at least one possible breach of the electronic patient data is inconsistent with at least one data pattern of a plurality of data patterns, wherein the plurality of data patterns correspond to a plurality of detected commonalities in the access data;
• in response to the detecting, generating an alert associated with the at least one electronic patient data access event of the plurality of electronic patient data access events that constitutes the at least one possible breach of electronic patient data;
• and
• causing to display the alert on a user interface of a user device.
