Zusammenfassung:	Collecting, validating, managing, and sharing data, for example healthcare and patient data, may include using a networked portable device. A forms-based system and process (referred to in some embodiments as DirectForms™) may allow clinical staff to efficiently collect and validate data on portable devices. In accordance with an embodiment, the system combines a portable computing device, validation of data, network connectivity, and an opportunity for shared effort among users via industry-standard (for example HL7 compliant) or customized interfaces. A server-based utility may route forms and HL7-compliant data transaction exports. Interfaces may provide for merging data into appropriate patient records. Some systems may be used in an ambulatory care setting. Various aspects may provide for improved clinical assessment, effective patient management, cost savings, and the ability to provide a more efficient billing process.
