Abstract: Techniques for determining a clinician's intent to order an item may include processing a free-form narration, of an encounter with a patient, narrated by a clinician, using a natural language understanding engine implemented by one or more processors, to extract at least one clinical fact corresponding to a mention of an orderable item from the free-form narration. The processing may comprise distinguishing between whether the at least one clinical fact indicates an intent to order the orderable item or does not indicate an intent to order the orderable item. In response to determining that the at least one clinical fact indicates an intent to order the orderable item, an order may be generated for the orderable item.

Abstract: A plurality of clinical facts may be extracted from a free-form narration of a patient encounter provided by a clinician. The plurality of clinical facts may include a first fact and a second fact. The first fact may be extracted from a first portion of the free-form narration, and the second fact may be extracted from a second portion of the free-form narration. A first indicator that indicates a first linkage between the first fact and the first portion of the free-form narration may be provided to a user. A second indicator, different from the first indicator, that indicates a second linkage between the second fact and the second portion of the free-form narration may also be provided to the user.
