Abstract: A method and system for care planning and management that provides a patient-centered single source of truth to foster teamwork and improved quality of care. The system facilitates creation of multi-author structured care plans through derivation of care relationships, care responsibilities and care plan elements to pre-populate care plans, and uses a hierarchical topic catalog and associated structured sentence templates and care plan templates to facilitate the completion of care plans. It aids interdisciplinary input through workflow-enabled routing of draft care plans, and rules-driven co-signing. The system allows each of multiple authors to separately tailor the sort order, hierarchy and information prominence of care plan structured sentences. The system uses care relationship and care responsibility information to optimize the propagation of care plan view tailoring instructions among co-authors.
