Patent number: 11971911Abstract: Systems and methods for generating customized annotations of a medical record are provided. The system receives a medical record and processes it using a predictive model to identify evidence of a finding. The system then determines whether to have a recall enhancement or validation of a specific finding. Recall enhancement is used to tune or develop the predictive model, while validation is used to rapidly validate the evidence. The source document is provided to the user and feedback is requested. When asking for validation, the system also highlights the evidence already identified and requests the user to indicate if the evidence is valid for a particular finding. If recall enhancement is utilized, the source document is provided and the user is asked to find evidence in the document for a particular finding. The user may then highlight the evidence that supports the finding. The user may also annotate the evidence using free form text.Type: GrantFiled: August 2, 2022Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: Apixio, LLCInventors: Darren Matthew Schulte, John O.

Patent number: 11955238Abstract: Systems and methods for personalizing medicine utilizing the true state of the patient are provided. A number of medical records for a patient are subjected to predictive modeling for various conditions (known as patient ‘true state’). The patient personal information, previous care, and true state may be provided into a state machine in order to determine the resources needed for the patient. The medical resources may be any of laboratory services, diagnostics, therapies and medications. Using the true state information, and number of activities may be performed for the patient based upon the patient's needs. These activities include scheduling lab or diagnostic procedures in advance of an appointment, filling in documentation gaps, identifying items that require additional documentation using the true state, and tracking follow-up. It may also be beneficial to validate the true state.Type: GrantFiled: October 17, 2022Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: Apixio, LLCInventors: Darren Matthew Schulte, John O.
