HEALTHCARE DATA MANAGEMENT TOOL

摘要

The problem with healthcare information today is that all of the information used to track a patient's entire encounter is not only stored in disparate systems or databases, but there are individual records or forms that are just stored as paper or images that need to be included as part of the encounter's “total picture.” The search tool links all of these disparate data sets and also converts the paper documents into data text and allows the user to search across all of the information that makes up an episode of care. Users have the ability to query large amounts of multiple data sources into a consolidated view of actionable information with immediate results. This information reduces time and increases the consistency of information for the end user. This can be used on a pre or post pay basis by either the payers or providers, clinical research entities and legal firms. Once the desired information has been found, the individual pages are instantly assembled and collated into a new document and communicated through multiple mediums. From a single episode of care to large data stores of non-discrete medical records can instantly be accessed and queried by non-technical individuals to find decision making information in a time sensitive manner.

主权项

1. A computer-implemented method for identifying and organizing healthcare claims information, the method comprising the steps of:
providing a non-transitory computer-readable medium database for storing information about a specific episode of healthcare that is input into it from disparate data sets comprising discrete and non-discrete data; translating healthcare related imaged documents without meta-data that is from a healthcare through optical character recognition to create new imaged documents comprising discrete data and saving the new imaged documents in the database; loading patient medical record information data into the database; loading patient financial system data and electronic medical records data into the database; loading electronic data interchange data into the database; translating, if necessary, the loaded data into discrete data that is searchable and able to be saved according to search query; creating a subset of specific information derived from a search and review of the discrete and translated non-discrete data; saving in a separate digital case file in the database all of the discrete data and related document files related to a specific episode of healthcare.
