  • Patent number: 11475996
    Abstract: Systems and methods for personalizing medicine utilizing the true state of the patient are provided. A number of medical records for a patient are subjected to predictive modeling for various conditions (known as patient ‘true state’). The patient personal information, previous care, and true state may be provided into a state machine in order to determine the resources needed for the patient. The medical resources may be any of laboratory services, diagnostics, therapies and medications. Using the true state information, and number of activities may be performed for the patient based upon the patient's needs. These activities include scheduling lab or diagnostic procedures in advance of an appointment, filling in documentation gaps, identifying items that require additional documentation using the true state, and tracking follow-up. It may also be beneficial to validate the true state.

  • Patent number: 11468981
    Abstract: Systems and methods for managing audit risks utilizing the true state of the patient are provided. A number of medical records for a patient are subjected to predictive modeling for various conditions (known as patient ‘true state’). The true state is then cross referenced by the eligible Medicare documentation, and any findings that are being submitted to MediCare for reimbursement. The result of this cross referencing is the ability to classify each finding and/or true state into a “green, “yellow”, or “red zone”. The green zone is where the finding, documentation and true state are in good alignment. A red zone is where the finding and the true state are entirely at odds. The yellow zone is where the findings and the true state are in agreement, but where there is still audit risk that may be resolved through one or more “opportunities”.

  • Patent number: 11461499
    Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products for health data protection. Embodiments commence upon receiving a data access request message from a participant in a health ecosystem. The data access request message comprises an indication of one or more health data sets that are held by or at least potentially of interest to the participant. System components are configured to receive the message and to identify the participant. Based on parameter values corresponding to a data protection policy of the participant, a data protection scheme is generated. The scheme includes parameter values derived from the data protection policy. The parameter values of the scheme are used to generate a variation of the health data set that is formed by applying one or more data anonymization, data obfuscation or other data protection techniques to the health data set. A balance among the parameters is calculated so as to achieve a desired outcome.
