  • Patent number: 11610677
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for analyzing health information to generate medical assessments are described. Health information may include any type of information associated with the health or physical characteristics of a patient. Non-limiting examples of medical assessments include medical diagnoses, medical orders, and risk assessments. A health information analysis system may access health information associated with a patient and provide a medical assessment based on various analyses of the health information. The health information analysis system may receive feedback associated with the medical assessments, such as historical information and/or user input regarding the accuracy or completeness of the medical assessment. The feedback may be used by the health information analysis system to update the analyses of the health information.

  • Patent number: 10203966
    Abstract: An application launcher and management framework (ALM framework) is provided for enabling and managing the execution of external applications (e.g., third party applications) on a network device. The ALM framework enables external applications to be executed and managed on a network device based upon configuration information specified for the external applications. In certain embodiments, the ALM framework enables an external application to be executed within the network device's network operating system (NOS) as if the application was provided as part of the NOS. By enabling the external application to be integrated with the network device's NOS, the ALM framework enables several services provided by the NOS to be made available to the external application.

  • Publication number: 20160063211
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for presenting graphical user interface objects for generating and/or facilitating resource assessments within a healthcare environment are described. In general, a resource assessment may include a determination of performance of a healthcare unit with respect to healthcare information, for instance, the treatment of a chronic condition. Systems described according to some embodiments may include healthcare assessment models configured to provide visual, graphical tools for automatically generating and/or facilitating the generation of medical and/or resource assessments and/or decisions within a healthcare environment. The models may provide healthcare professionals and administrators with increased visibility into all of the medical diagnoses reported on patients, both from internal and external sources, and the overall process from diagnosing conditions to billing.

  • Publication number: 20150248529
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for managing and facilitating the delivery of healthcare services are described. Some embodiments provide a healthcare management system configured to analyze and process healthcare information and healthcare expenditure information. Healthcare information may generally include medical information associated with a healthcare entity, such as a patient, a healthcare professional, a healthcare facility, or the like. Healthcare expenditure information may generally include any information associated with the cost of medical care related to a patient, healthcare professional, a healthcare facility, and/or a medical procedure. The healthcare management system may be configured to generate healthcare assessments based on the healthcare information and/or healthcare expenditure information.

  • Patent number: 6364954
    Abstract: An apparatus for wafer processing, which comprises a chamber body and a heated liner which are thermally isolated from each other by isolating pins. During wafer processing, e.g., deposition of titanium nitride film by thermal reaction between titanium tetrachloride and ammonia, a wafer substrate is heated to a reaction temperature in the range of 600-700° C. by a heated support pedestal. The chamber liner and the interior chamber walls are maintained at a temperature between 150-250° C. to prevent deposition of undesirable by-products inside the chamber. This facilitates the chamber cleaning procedure, which can be performed using an in-situ chlorine-based process. The excellent thermal isolation between the heated liner and the chamber body allows the chamber exterior to be maintained at a safe operating temperature of 60-65° C. A heated exhaust assembly is also used in conjunction with the process chamber to remove exhaust gases and reaction by-products.
