Abstract: A system, method, and apparatus for universally accessible personal records provides encrypted storage of user-specific data within a personal record linked to a personal record chain of personal records. The personal record chains are stored in immutable form across a plurality of nodes that collectively function as a dispersed, redundant personal record chain data storage system. A secure QR code may act as a patient's private key, and may be scanned by any designated third party in the world who has access to the present invention. When scanned, the private key or password may decrypt the user-specific data and provide a portion or all of the same to the designated third-party. Any changes to the user-specific data within a new personal record may be immutably recorded on the personal record chain and multiple copies and chains of personal records may be stored across more than one node.

Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying related data for variant testing are disclosed. For example, data stored for records from disparate data sources may not include the same identifiers for all records such that it may not be readily identified as record for the same member. The presently-disclosed systems and methods generate data tagged as identifier information and determine the degree of similarity between the identifier information. Based at least in part on the degree of similarity meeting or exceeding a threshold amount of similarity, the data may be associated with a member identifier. By properly identifying user information corresponding to member identifiers, the members may be split in meaningful ways to perform variant test.

Abstract: An inventory management system manages information regarding medical items dispensed to a patient in a medical facility. Inventory sensors sense removal of medical items from an inventory space to be dispensed to the patient. Software instructions associate item information with patient information that identifies the patient, determine billing codes associated with the dispensed items, generate billing information including the patient information and the billing codes, and generate an invoice directed to the patient's medical insurance provider. The instructions also verify that the billing codes are associated with medical items appropriate for treatment of the patient's condition indicated by diagnostic codes included in the billing information, and generate an alert message if the billing codes are associated with medical items that are not reimbursable or are inappropriate for treatment of the diagnosed condition.

Abstract: Laboratory test apparatus for conducting a mass spectrometry test on a blood-based sample of a cancer patient includes a classification procedure implemented in a programmed computer that generates a class label. In one form of the test, “Test 1”, if the sample is labelled “Bad” or equivalent the patient is predicted to exhibit primary immune resistance if they are later treated with anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 therapies. In “Test 2” the Bad class label predicts that the patient will have a poor prognosis in response to treatment by either anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 therapies or alternative chemotherapies, such as docetaxel or pemetrexed. “Test 3” identifies patients that are likely to have a poor prognosis in response to treatment by either anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 therapies but have improved outcomes on alternative chemotherapies. A Good class label by either Test 1 or 2 predicts very good outcome on anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 monotherapy.

Abstract: A system and method for delivering diagnostic information to a user in an automated manner. An image processing module reads magnified raw image data from whole slides containing tissue cells. A background deletion process identifies and isolates cell images. A neural network, which is trained based upon image data, classifies the cell images. The classification uses specialist criteria to categorize/segment the cell images into a plurality of discrete cell types. A display process provides the diagnostic information to the user. The neural network can be trained using a plurality of cell types each having the specialist criteria. The diagnostic information includes filtered and/or reorganized images of the tissue cells. Additionally, the user can request the diagnostic information based upon an account that provides payment according to a predetermined formula associated with at least one of a type, format, and timing of information delivered to the user.

Abstract: Systems and methods manage goals and tasks for individuals based on factors such as time-series data retrieved from a wearable device, user input to one or more computing devices, and analysis of data corresponding to other individuals. Time series data retrieved from a wearable device is used to compute a value that is used to predict a warning of an adverse physical effect for an individual. Data such as heartrate, blood oxygenation, and/or distance traveled for an athlete, along with a recorded indication of the athlete's physical exertion for an athletic session, is used to compute a value that indicates whether an adverse physical effect is likely. If the value exceeds a threshold, then the system transmits a warning and/or modifies the individual's schedule for display on a calendar.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for automatically processing data stored in one or more databases using machine learning to detect entities (such as health care providers, health care plan members, patients, pharmacies, and so forth) associated with health care claims that are suspected of fraudulent, wasteful, and/or abusive activity. The techniques may further or alternatively involve generating and presenting, for a set of suspected entities, natural language explanatory information explaining how and/or why each of the respective suspected entities is considered to be suspected of fraudulent, wasteful, and/or abusive activity. Feedback provided by fraud analysts and/or other subject matter experts in the misuse detection space is used to facilitate misuse detection and misuse detection presentation.
