Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for determining patient financial responsibility for multiple prescription products across multiple healthcare transactions. A service provider computer can receive multiple healthcare transactions, and can evaluate each to determine if it includes a total group transaction number and a transaction number. The service provider computer can compare the transaction number to the total group transaction number to determine if all transactions within a group have been received. Once received, the transactions can be transmitted to the claims processor computer for adjudication. Upon receiving the adjudicated response for each transaction within the group, the service provider computer can identify the patient co-pay for each of the adjudicated responses in the group and can calculate a total patient pay amount based on the group of patient co-pays. The total patient pay amount may then be transmitted to a healthcare provider computer associated with a healthcare provider.

Abstract: Mechanisms are provided to implement a cognitive medical decision support system that operates to analyze a set of commercial transactions executed by a patient to identify at least one of products or services purchased during each commercial transaction or an activity, associated with the commercial transaction, engaged in by the patient. The cognitive medical decision support system determines a lifestyle behavior pattern of the patient based on the products, services, or activities associated with the commercial transactions in the set of commercial transactions and evaluates an impact of the lifestyle behavior pattern to at least one of the overall health of the patient, a specific medical condition of the patient, or a specific previously prescribed treatment of the patient. The cognitive medical decision support system outputs a notification indicating the impact of the lifestyle behavior pattern.

Some embodiments also include displaying a patient population disease trigger map one or more relationships between (i) one or more disease triggers and (ii) one or more patients of the patient population. Some embodiments may further include facilitating communication and/or disease trigger information sharing among patients.

Abstract: A system and method of confirming administration of medication is provided. The method comprises the steps of receiving information identifying a particular medication prescription regimen, determining one or more procedures for administering such prescription regimen and identifying one or more activity sequences associated with such procedures. Activity sequences of actual administration of such prescription regimen are captured and then compared to the identified activity sequences to determine differences therebetween. A notice is provided if differences are determined.

Abstract: Implementations are directed to providing a user of a mobile device access to patient information and patient physiological data. Actions can include receiving user input, the user input indicating a user command to display a task screen, in response to the user input, processing user-specific data to determine one or more patient icons, each patient icon representing a time-sensitive, patient-associated task, and displaying the task screen on the mobile device, the task screen displaying one or more patient icon groups, each patient icon group including a patient icon of the one or more patient icons.

Abstract: A system, method, and mobile device application are configured to capture, with a mobile device, a document such as a next generation sequencing (NGS) report that includes NGS medical information about a genetically sequenced patient. At least some of the information is extracted from the document using an entity linking engine, and the extracted information is provided into a structured data repository where it is accessible to provide information regarding the patient specifically as well as collectively as part of a cohort of patients with similar genetic variants, medical histories, or other commonalities. In one aspect, the document is matched to a template model, and the document is processed using one or more masks segregating the template model, and therefore the document, into a series of distinct subregions.

Abstract: Introduced here are health management platforms able to infer the health state of a subject based on behavioral changes reflected in the digital activities performed by a subject. A health management platform can initially acquire contextual data pertaining to digital activities performed by the subject. The health management platform can identify the target(s) of the digital activities by parsing the contextual data, and then compile the digital activities and corresponding activities into a personalized valence index. Thereafter, the health management platform can compare digital activities performed by the subject to the entries included in the personalized valence index. If a matching entry is not discovered, the health management platform can identify an instance of behavior change. These instances of behavior change may be indicative of changes in the subject's health state.
