Patient qualifying and selection process

A method for qualifying and selecting patients to be included in the technology-assisted disease management (TADM) system, comprising the steps of:

• receiving an input associated with the patient;
• assessing said input using at least one qualifying module, said qualifying module having at least one predetermined parameter;
• and
• determining if said input is a qualified input based upon said assessment, where the patient associated with said qualified input is included in the TADM system.

A system for qualifying and selecting patients to be included in a technology-assisted disease management (TADM) system, comprising:

• means for receiving an input associated with the patient;
• means for assessing said input using at least one qualifying module, said qualifying module having at least one predetermined parameter;
• and
• means for determining if said input is a qualified input based upon said assessment, where the patient associated with said qualified input is included in the TADM system.

A system for qualifying and selecting patients to be included in a technology-assisted disease management (TADM) system, comprising:

• means for receiving an input associated with the patient;
• means for assessing said input using a global goal module that is capable of defining the goals of the organization;
• and
• means for determining if said input is a qualified input based upon said assessment, where the patient associated with said qualified input is included in the TADM system.

A computer readable medium for qualifying and selecting patients to be included in a technology-assisted disease management (TADM) system, comprising:

• logic configured to receive an input associated with the patient;
• logic configured to assess said input using at least one qualifying module, said qualifying module having at least one predetermined parameter;
• and
• logic configured to determine if said input is a qualified input based upon said assessment, where the patient associated with said qualified input is included in the TADM system.
