Abstract: System and methods are disclosed which use one or more dimensions that assesses the veracity of a diagnosis in a health care record. The veracity of the diagnosis is based on a set of dimension values and a set of weightings. A user interface for healthcare providers/caregivers is provided to review the assessment and provide feedback so that the weighting of the dimensions may be adjusted to improve the assessment of the diagnosis.

Abstract: A system and method that generates a physiological imagery of one or more parts of a patient's body are provided. The system and method combine one or more parameters relating to a particular part of the body and then generates the physiological imagery for the part of the body wherein the physiological imagery may have a characteristic that changes based on the state of the patient.

Abstract: A condition can be diagnosed based on a symptom experienced by a subject and based on a biological sample including nucleic acids. Based on the symptom, a first set of the nucleic acids can be preselected for analysis. A first plurality of the nucleic acids of the first set that are present in the first biological sample can be captured. For each of the captured nucleic acids of the first plurality, an amount of that captured nucleic acid that is present in the first biological sample can be quantified and sequenced and based on the sequence of that captured nucleic acid, an origin of that captured nucleic acid can be identified. An indication can be output of the quantified amount and the identified origin of at least one captured nucleic acid that is present in the first biological sample.

Abstract: The present invention is a drug interaction alert system for alerting someone associated with a patient (including in one embodiment the patient himself) that a serious potential for drug interaction in health care has occurred for the patient. Health insurance claims data is used in the computerized process to evaluate the degree of seriousness of the drug interactions in care.

Abstract: A system and method, using one or more dimensions, that assesses the veracity of a diagnosis presently in a health care record is disclosed. The system assesses the veracity of a diagnosis based on a set of dimension values and a set of weightings. The system also provides a user interface to health care providers/caregivers to review the assessment made by the system and may include a feedback mechanism so that the system may adjust the weighting of the dimensions and improve the assessment of the diagnosis made by the system.

Abstract: A gap in care alert system and method includes a computer network which receives health insurance claims data. A database with medical treatment protocols for medical conditions is in electronic communication with one or more processors, the computer network, and an electronic storage device. The processor is configured to analyze said health insurance claims data to identify a triggering event for an insured patient, establish a date for a follow-up event based on a treatment protocol, and generate a gap in care alert if subsequently gathered health insurance claims data does not contain the follow-up event by said date. An alert delivery subsystem delivers said alert electronically to a receiver.

Abstract: A system and method for automating the dispensation of medication is provided. Electronic medical record data including identifying data and medication data for an individual is received at a server. The medication data is analyzed to identify at least one medication for dispensation. An instruction is initiated to load said identified medication in an automated medication dispenser and the automated medication dispenser is loaded with a dosing tray in the form of a replenishable, standardized cartridge. Status data is received from the automated medication dispenser regarding the dispensation of the identified medication and medication dosages remaining. At least one image of a user interacting with the automated medication dispenser is provided from a monitoring component which is in electronic communication with said automated medication dispenser.

Abstract: The present invention is a gap in care alert system for alerting someone associated with a patient (including in one embodiment the patient himself) that a gap in heath care will soon occur or in another embodiment that a gap in care has occurred for the patient based on the occurrence of a triggering event and the absence of a follow-up event occurring. Health insurance claims data may be used in the process to determine gaps in care.

Abstract: An automated prescription dispensing system and method for facilitating dispensing of medications from an automated prescription dispenser designed for in-home use. The dispenser may connect to a remote patient monitoring center for monitoring of the patient's dispenser use and adherence to a medication regime. The dispenser may further connect to a remote medication operations center for monitoring replenishment of the patient's medications and to a remote medical center for monitoring the patient's reaction to medications and clinical signs. A connection to a data analytics center and analytical engine facilitates communications among and between the users and/or caregivers at the remote centers. The dispenser may be loaded with a standardized cartridge that is replenished according to the patient's needs. The dispenser is further equipped with a camera that allows a caregiver at the remote patient monitoring center to view the patient while the patient uses the dispenser.

Abstract: A system and method for rapid entry of past medical diagnoses allows for development of specific, clinically relevant diagnoses from a simple input medication through use of a developed database that maps an input medication to a specific medical diagnosis through an intermediate indications data set. Input medications are normalized to their generic or chemical name and the normalized medication data is associated to an intermediate diagnosis through a medications indications listing contained in a database. Each medication develops a short list of possible specific and/or macro-diagnoses (indications) consistent with the medications and a selected indication is concept-matched to a specific medical diagnosis in order to develop a proper diagnosis in clinically meaningful terms, from a concept-mapped portion of the database.
