Abstract
Subject matter disclosed herein may relate to electronic form processing systems and/or techniques, and may more particularly relate to data linkage for electronic forms. In one or more example embodiments, form data associated with one or more forms may be stored in a first database. The structures for one or more electronic forms may be defined, at least in part, by metadata stored in a second database. The one or more electronic forms may be generated based at least in part on the structures defined by the metadata from the second database and may be displayed using one or more subsets of the form data from the first database.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- storing one or more form entries comprising a plurality of records in a first database in a memory of a computing system accessible by a first provider organization;
- storing one or more object-oriented classes specifying one or more characteristics of one or more electronic forms in the memory of the computing system accessible by the first provider organization;
- displaying a first electronic form of the one or more electronic forms in accordance with one or more characteristics indicated by the one or more object-oriented classes stored in the memory of the computing system accessible by the first provider organization, wherein the first electronic form is populated at least in part with a first subset of the plurality of records stored in the first database, wherein the first subset of the plurality of records stored in the first database is reflective at least in part of information provided by a centralized database accessible by the first provider organization, wherein the centralized database is further accessible by one or more additional provider organizations, wherein the one or more object-oriented classes comprise logic associated with one or more respective fields of the first electronic form to perform one or more operations on the subset of the plurality of records stored in the first database at least in part in response to displaying the electronic form;
- and
- securing the one or more object-oriented classes and the first subset of the plurality of records stored in the first database against access from the one or more additional provider organizations.

The method of clam 8, wherein the centralized database comprises patient information for one or more patients.
An article, comprising:
- a non-transitory storage medium, having stored thereon instructions executable by a processor of a computing platform to:
- store one or more form entries comprising a plurality of records in a first database in a memory of the computing platform accessible by a first provider organization;
- store one or more object-oriented classes specifying one or more characteristics of one or more electronic forms in the memory of the computing platform accessible by the first provider organization;
- display a first electronic form of the one or more electronic forms in accordance with one or more characteristics indicated by the one or more object-oriented classes stored in the memory of the computing platform accessible by the first provider organization, wherein the first electronic form is populated at least in part with a first subset of the plurality of records stored in the first database, wherein the first subset of the plurality of records stored in the first database is reflective at least in part of information provided by a centralized database accessible by the first provider organization, wherein the centralized database is further accessible by one or more additional provider organizations, wherein the one or more object-oriented classes comprise logic associated with one or more respective fields of the first electronic form to perform one or more operations on the subset of the plurality of records stored in the first database at least in part in response to displaying the electronic form;
- and
- secure the one or more object-oriented classes and the first subset of the plurality of records stored in the first database against access from the one or more additional provider organizations.

The article of clam 17, wherein the centralized database comprises a collected medical data warehouse, and wherein the form patient information for one or more patients.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a processor to:
- store one or more form entries comprising a plurality of records in a first database in a memory accessible by a first provider organization;
- store one or more object-oriented classes specifying one or more characteristics of one or more electronic forms the memory accessible by the first provider organization;
- display a first electronic form of the one or more electronic forms in accordance with one or more characteristics indicated by the one or more object-oriented classes stored in the memory accessible by the first provider organization, wherein the first electronic form is populated at least in part with a first subset of the plurality of records stored in the first database, wherein the first subset of the plurality of records stored in the first database is reflective at least in part of information provided by a centralized database accessible by the first provider organization, wherein the centralized database is further accessible by one or more additional provider organizations, wherein the one or more object-oriented classes comprise logic associated with one or more respective fields of the first electronic form to perform one or more operations on the subset of the plurality of records stored in the first database at least in part in response to displaying the electronic form;
- and
- secure the one or more object-oriented classes and the first subset of the plurality of records stored in the first database against access from the one or more additional provider organizations.
