System and method for determining health care procedures and reimbursement

A computer-implemented method for recording a first health care event and calculating a reimbursement, the method comprising:

• Acquiring metadata for the first health care event, the metadata comprising:
• a patient identifier;
• a patient identifier entry time;
• a two-factor authentication practitioner identifier;
• a practitioner identifier entry time;
• a health care site identifier;
• a health care site identifier entry time;
• and
• a medical reason for the event;
• Receiving a request for reimbursement;
• Generating a list of one or more procedures based on the medical reason;
• Generating a list of required data types and a list of required quality data for each of the one or more procedures;
• Acquiring raw data for the first health care event, the raw data comprising:
• a procedure selected from the list of procedures;
• a medical device identifier for a medical device used in the procedure;
• a medical device identifier entry time;
• one or more quality data from the medical device used in the procedure;
• and
• a patient status before and after the procedure;
• and
• Calculating a reimbursement for the first health care event based on at least the procedure, the medical device identifier, the list of required quality data and the one or more quality data from the medical device.

A health care data system to determine a reimbursement for a health care event comprising:

• a database for storing metadata for the health care event, the metadata comprising:
• a patient identifier;
• a practitioner identifier;
• a health care site identifier;
• a time entry for each of the patient identifier, the practitioner identifier and the health care site identifier;
• and
• a medical reason for the health care event;
• a database for storing raw data for the health care event, the raw data including:
• a list of procedures for the medical reason;
• a procedure selected from the list of procedures;
• a list of data types for the procedure;
• a list of quality data for the procedure;
• a medical device identifier;
• a time entry for the medical device identifier;
• and
• at least one quality data from the list of quality data, measured from the medical device for the health care event;
• a processor in communication with the metadata database and the raw data database;
• and
• a memory with an executable application for calculating the reimbursement quantum for the health care event based on at least the procedure, the medical device and the quality data.
