  • Patent number: 11037682
    Abstract: Mechanisms are provided for administering health care assessments to a patient. The mechanisms analyze patient information stored in a patient registry and determine a plurality of health care assessments to be administered to the patient based on the patient information and one or more pre-defined health care assessment guidelines specifying conditions for which health care assessments are to be administered to patients and timing for administering the assessments to the patients. The mechanisms generate a sequence of health care assessments, in the plurality of health care assessments, based on the guidelines and the patient information. The sequence comprises an ordering of the health care assessments, and a timing interval between health care assessments, determined based on the guidelines and the patient information. The mechanisms administer at least one health care assessment to the patient in accordance with the determined sequence of health care assessments.

  • Publication number: 20180211013
    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.
