SYSTEM AND TECHNIQUES FOR COST ESTIMATION OF MEDICAL CONDITIONS ACQUIRED AT A MEDICAL FACILITY

摘要

Computer-implemented methods of processing medical data are described. The methods comprise selecting cases associated with a first parameter from medical data associated with a plurality of cases, determining a subset of cases associated with a medical facility-acquired condition, and determining another subset cases not associated with the medical facility-acquired condition. Estimated costs associated with those cases associated a medical facility-acquired condition are generated, along with expected costs for these same cases in the absence of the medical facility-acquired condition. Methods further allowing comparisons to data related to normative collections of medical facilities are also disclosed. Computerized systems for processing medical data and computer-readable storage media comprising instructions that when executed in a processor cause the processor to process medical data are also described.
