Abstract: Mechanisms are provided to implement a medical code re-coding system. The mechanisms analyze a patient medical record corresponding to a patient, to identify at least one previous occurrence of a medical code in the patient medical record. At least one medical code re-coding rule corresponding to the at least one previous occurrence of the medical code is applied to the patient medical record. Based on results of the application of the at least one medical code re-coding rule, a determination is made as to whether the medical code is a candidate for re-coding. A notification of the medical code being a candidate for re-coding is output in response to the determination indicating that the medical code is a candidate for re-coding.

Abstract: Mechanisms are provided for identifying potential medical codes applicable to a patient based on a patient registry record. A patient registry record, in a patient registry, is analyzed to identify current and historical medical information about a corresponding patient. The current and historical medical information is evaluated to identify at least one medical code for which the patient may qualify but is not currently associated with the patient. A probability value for the at least one medical code is calculated based on the current and historical medical information about the corresponding patient. The probability value is compared to at least one threshold value and an alert notification is output indicating the at least one medical code in response to the probability value having a predetermined relationship with the at least one threshold value.
