  • Patent number: 11899692
    Abstract: Aspects and features relate to computationally reducing the size or complexity of a database in order to improve the speed and efficiency with which such a database is processed by a computing system in order to identify investigators for clinical trials. In some aspects, a processing device performs operations including identifying data sources for geographically clustered data containing corresponding descriptors for database records. The operations further include formatting the corresponding descriptors to produce standardized, corresponding descriptors, and matching each standardized, corresponding descriptor to produce a record score for the descriptor. The record scores can be combined to produce an overall score for each database record and the database record can be selected and written to the data store based on the overall score.

  • Patent number: 11883180
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and devices for identifying increased likelihood of non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) in a patient based on ECG data. The methods can include determining based on the ECG data that the patient lacks ST elevation (STE) and that the patient exhibits a ventricular repolarization dispersion (VRD) score that exceeds a predetermined threshold value. The VRD score can be based in part on a T wave complexity ratio that serves as a temporal marker of VRD for the patient. Other markers of spatial and time qualities of repolarization can also be included in the VRD score. An elevated VRD score in the absence of STE can indicate a likelihood of NSTEMI in the patient and a potential major adverse cardiac event.

The alternative system allows for a third party to act as a switchboard for prescription claims such that requests for prescription claims received from pharmacy systems are pre-adjudicated and data packets included in the requests are modified prior to being routed to a PBM selected by the third party.

The signs may comprise measurements and contexts, and the associations may describe the relationships between the measurements and contexts. The evidence may support these associations. The disclosed systems may be configured to receive a request from a user in the first workgroup, retrieve matching data items, and optionally then output to the user at least some of the retrieved matching data items. The request may comprise at least one of a first association and a first measurement.

  • Patent number: 11872041
    Abstract: Physiological variables, metrics, biomarkers, and other data points can be used, in connection with a non-invasive wearable device, to screen for, and predict, mental health issues and cognitive states. In addition to metrics such as heart rate, sleep data, activity level, gamification data, and the like, information such as text message and email data, as well as vocal data obtained through a phone and/or a microphone, may be analyzed, provided user authorization. Applying predictive modeling, one or more of the monitored metrics can be correlated with mental states and disorders. Identified patterns can be used to update the predictive models, such as via machine learning-trained models, as well as to update individual event predictions. Information about the mental state predictions, and updates thereto, can be surfaced to the user accordingly.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present systems and methods may provide techniques to predict the success or failure of a drug used for disease treatment. For example, a method of determining drug efficacy may include, for a plurality of patients, generating a directed acyclic graph from health related information of each patient comprising nodes representing a medical event of the patient, at least one first edge connecting the first node to an additional node, each additional edge connecting nodes representing two consecutive medical events, the edge having a weight based on a time difference between the two consecutive medical events, capturing a plurality of features from each directed acyclic graph, generating a binary graph classification model on captured features of each directed acyclic graph, determining a probability that a drug or treatment will be effective using the binary graph classification model, and determining a drug to be prescribed to a patient based on the determined probability.

  • Patent number: 11865199
    Abstract: A method is disclosed whereby consumers enrolled in a prescription benefit plan can obtain prescription medication fulfillment at any participating pharmacy of their choice, regardless of whether the fulfillment is by a retail pharmacy or a mail order pharmacy, and whether the quantity of medication prescribed is for administration over a short period (acute care) or a prolonged period (maintenance). The plan of this invention operates by having the plan manager substantially equalize the financial effects of the discounts and services fees allowed to participating pharmacies such that both retail and mail order pharmacies are compensated in a manner which encourages them to accept all consumers and fill all prescriptions. Compensation is preferably adjusted periodically by the manager to retain pharmacy incentives. Consumers obtain choice of pharmacies, plan payers have pleased employees and members and pharmacies obtain income from the entire spectrum of consumers.

  • Patent number: 11861745
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, that enable clients to create custom conditional segments on which other clients can claim a spot. In one aspect, a method includes receiving, from a device of a creator, attributes of a conditional segment created by the creator through an interface presented at the device. In response to receiving the attributes of the conditional segment, clients are notified that the conditional segment is available and the clients are enabled to claim a spot on the conditional segment. A determination is made whether to convert the conditional segment to a confirmed segment based on a number of spots claimed by the clients. Prior to converting the conditional segment to a confirmed segment, a given client is cancelled from the conditional segment in response to receiving, from the given client, a request to cancel the claimed spot.
