• b. via an observer agent resident on a user device utilized by the person, detecting an activity (i) indicative of responsibility for care of the patient by a person listed in the master list of healthcare personnel and (ii) associated with an application employed by the person, wherein the observer agent detects activities indicative of responsibility for care of the patient by, at least in part, monitoring screens that identify the patient and/or hooking into a message queue for the application;
• c. updating, by the audit server, an interaction score of the person based on the detected activity and the involvement index;
• and
• d. revising, by the audit server and at least on the basis of the updated interaction score, the core patient care team list and/or the extended patient care team list in the record corresponding to the patient by (i) adding the person to the core patient care team list or the extended patient care team list, (ii) removing the person from the core patient care team list or the extended patient care team list, or (iii) moving the person from one of the core patient care team list or the extended patient care team list to the other.
