Abstract: A computer-assisted method of abstracting and coding data includes receiving one or more documents is disclosed. The methods and systems extract information from a record based on extraction rules that correspond to an identified record type, determine codes corresponding to the information extracted from the record, present the correspondence between the extracted information and the codes, receive from the user-input device a validation of the correspondence between the extracted information and one of the codes, and output a report including the validated information and the validated code.

Abstract: A computerized method for evaluating medical reports includes identifying at least one or more medical reports stored in a database related to the medical condition, validating the identified medical reports by determining if key words associated with the medical condition found in the at least one or more reports are surrounded by a negative context and extracting relevant data from the medical reports. The exemplary method also includes evaluating the relevant data from the medical reports with provisions set forth in clinical guidelines corresponding to a medical condition, storing a flag identifying one or more of the medical reports as noncompliant when its corresponding relevant data does not comply with the provisions set forth in the clinical guideline unless a valid contraindication applies and displaying the medical reports identified as noncompliant.
