Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for facilitating co-morbid care management

An apparatus for facilitating co-morbid care management, the apparatus comprising a processor configured to cause the apparatus to at least:

• determine a plurality of medical conditions affecting a member enrolled in a care management plan;
• activate, based at least in part upon the determined medical conditions, a plurality of member assessment modules, wherein each activated member assessment module is associated with a respective determined medical condition, and wherein each activated member assessment module comprises a set of assessment questions targeted to the medical condition with which the member assessment module is associated;
• generate a blended co-morbid assessment question set based at least in part on the assessment question sets of the activated member assessment modules by blending the assessment question sets of the activated member assessment modules into a blended co-morbid assessment question set;
• and
• blend the assessment question sets of the activated member assessment modules into a blended co-morbid assessment question set by causing the apparatus to at least:
• determine that the assessment question sets of the activated member assessment modules comprise at least one conflicting assessment question by identifying at least one question that is medically appropriate for a first one of the activated member assessment modules and medically inappropriate for a second one of the activated member assessment modules;
• and
• when the assessment question sets of the activated member assessment modules comprise at least one conflicting assessment question:
• determine a medically appropriate assessment question based on the at least one conflicting assessment question, wherein the medically appropriate assessment is appropriate for the activated member assessment modules;
• and
• include the medically appropriate assessment question in the blended co-morbid assessment question set.

A computer program product comprising at least one tangible, non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer-readable program instructions stored therein, the computer-readable program instructions comprising:

• program instructions configured to determine a plurality of medical conditions affecting a member enrolled in a care management plan;
• program instructions configured to activate, based at least in part upon the determined medical conditions, a plurality of member assessment modules, wherein each activated member assessment module is associated with a respective determined medical condition, and wherein each activated member assessment module comprises a set of assessment questions targeted to the medical condition with which the member assessment module is associated;
• program instructions configured to generate a blended co-morbid assessment question set based at least in part on the assessment question sets of the activated member assessment modules by blending the assessment question sets of the activated member assessment modules into a blended co-morbid assessment question set;
• and
• program instructions configured to blend the assessment question sets of the activated member assessment modules into a blended co-morbid assessment question set by:
• determining that the assessment question sets of the activated member assessment modules comprise at least one conflicting assessment question by identifying at least one question that is medically appropriate for a first one of the activated member assessment modules and medically inappropriate for a second one of the activated member assessment modules;
• and
• when the assessment question sets of the activated member assessment modules comprise at least one conflicting assessment question:
• determining a medically appropriate assessment question based on the at least one conflicting assessment question, wherein the medically appropriate assessment is appropriate for the activated member assessment modules;
• and
• including the medically appropriate assessment question in the blended co-morbid assessment question set.
