Abstract
A proactive disease state management system including network elements, computer elements and software elements operable to support a plurality of subscriber devices each under a subscription plan in which the subscriber device requests the collection of electronic medical records of a patient for evaluation by a proactive disease state management engine which interrelates patient information, patient medical information and patient laboratory information included in the electronic medical record of a patient to generate engine result data and populate the fields of a request reply to the subscriber device.
Claims6
A method in a computer implemented system, comprising:
- retrieving an electronic medical record from an electronic medical records database;
- identifying each International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Codes (“ICDC”) and each Nation Drug Code (“NDC”) in said electronic medical record;
- comparing each said ICDC and each said NDC in said electronic medical record to a plurality of disease states in a disease state database;
- identifying matches between said ICDC and said NDC in said electronic medical record to said plurality of disease states in a disease state database;
- scoring said electronic medical record based upon matches of said ICDC or said NDC with said plurality of disease states in said disease state database;
- attributing a null score value to each failure to match said ICDC in said electronic medical record to one of said plurality of disease states in said disease state database;
- attributing a positive score value to each match of said ICDC in said electronic medical record to one of said plurality of disease states in said disease state database;
- attributing a null score value to each failure to match said NDC in said electronic medical record to one of said plurality of disease states in said disease state database or if said NDC matches one of said plurality of disease states in said disease state database and further matches a treatment associated with said ICDC matched to one of said plurality of disease states in said disease state database;
- attributing a positive score value to each match of said NDC in said electronic medical records to one of said disease states in said disease state database, if said NDC further matches an adverse effect associated to said disease state;
- attributing a positive score value to each match of said ICDC to one of said plurality disease states in said disease state database if said NDC does not further match a treatment associated with said disease state;
- and
- generating an aggregate health score by aggregating each said positive score value, said aggregate health score indicative of a health level based on said medical record.
A computer implemented system, comprising:
- a processor communicatively coupled to a non-transitory computer readable media;
- a disease state database including a plurality of diseases states, wherein each of said plurality of disease states referenced to one or more International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Codes (“ICDC”) and one or more National Drug Codes (“NDC”);
- a program contained in said a non-transitory computer readable media, said program including:
- an electronic medical record interface executable to access electronic medical records in one or more medical records databases;
- an electronic medical records evaluation module executable to:
- identify each said ICDC and each said NDC in said electronic medical records;
- compare each said ICDC identified in said electronic medical records to one or more said ICDC associated with each of said plurality of disease states in said disease state database;
- identify matches between said ICDC in said electronic medical record to said plurality of disease states in a disease state database;
- compare each said NDC identified in said electronic medical records to said one or more said NDC associated with each of said plurality of disease states in said disease state database;
- and
- identify matches between said NDC in said electronic medical record to said plurality of disease states in a disease state database;
- a scoring module executable to:
- score said electronic medical record based upon matches of said ICDC and said NDC with said plurality of disease states in said disease state database;
- attribute a null score value to each failure to match said ICDC in said electronic medical record to one of said plurality of disease states in said disease state database;
- attribute a positive score value to each match of said ICDC in said electronic medical record to one of said plurality of disease states in said disease state database;
- attribute a null score value to each failure to match said NDC in said electronic medical record to one of said plurality of disease states in said disease state database or if said NDC matches one of said plurality of disease states in said disease state database and further matches a treatment associated with said ICDC matched to one of said plurality of disease states in said disease state database;
- attribute a positive score value to each match of said NDC in said electronic medical records to one of said disease states in said disease state database, if said NDC further matches an adverse effect associated to said disease state;
- attribute a positive score value to each match of said ICDC to one of said plurality disease states in said disease state database if said NDC does not further match a treatment associated with said disease state;
- and
- aggregate each positive score value to generate an aggregate health score.
