Abstract: Mechanisms are provided for caching patient information in a variable list and using the variable list to evaluate patient rules. The mechanisms generate a patient registry comprising a plurality of patient registry records, each patient registry record being associated with a corresponding patient and comprising personal and medical information about the corresponding patient. The mechanisms compile at least one variable list for an input variable of one or more clinical rules. The variable list comprises a plurality of instances of personal and medical information from the plurality of sources that are associated with the variable. The mechanisms also process at least one clinical rule in the one or more clinical rules that references the variable as a criteria for evaluating the at least one clinical rule, based on the variable list associated with the variable to determine if the criteria is satisfied by one or more instances.

Abstract: Mechanisms are provided for communicating with a patient. The mechanisms generate a patient registry comprising a plurality of patient registry records, each patient registry record being associated with a corresponding patient and comprising personal and medical information about the corresponding patient. The mechanisms collect, for each patient registry record, first data regarding treatment of the corresponding patient and second data regarding communications made with the corresponding patient. The mechanisms determine, based on analysis of the first data and second data associated with each of the patient registry records, a mode of communication that is most likely to result in a successful treatment of patients. The mechanisms initiate a communication with a patient of interest using the determined mode of communication based on the results of the determination.

Abstract: A mechanism is provided in a data processing system comprising at least one processor and at least one memory, the at least one memory comprising instructions executed by the at least one processor to cause the at least one processor to implement a clinical decision support system. A priority calculation component executing within the clinical decision support system receives weighted priority configuration for a health care facility and a set of patients with care gaps. The priority calculation component assigns a priority value to each given patient in the set of patients based on a risk score of at least one condition for the given patient, a number of days out of compliance for the at least one condition for the given patient, and an organizational goal factor associated with the at least one condition for the health care organization. The priority calculation component generates a prioritized communication sequence for the set of patients.

Abstract: Mechanisms are provided for performing sequential multi-modal communication with patients. The mechanisms generate a patient registry comprising a plurality of patient registry records, each patient registry record being associated with a corresponding patient and comprising personal and medical information about the corresponding patient. The mechanisms collect, for each patient registry record, first data regarding treatment of the corresponding patient and second data regarding communications made with the corresponding patient.
