Abstract:
1. A health care computer network system in which the manual creation of patient documentation is facilitated by automatic inclusion of information in the patient documentation based on an electronic patient medical record of the patient, comprising: (a) a server, by which electronic patient medical records are accessible; and (b) at least one computing device configured to communicate electronically with the server for accessing, through the server, the electronic patient medical records; (c) wherein the computing device comprises computer executable instructions contained in non-transitory computer readable medium which, when executed for generating patient documentation regarding an episode of health care services rendered to a particular patient, (i) provide a user interface for receiving user input regarding the episode of health services rendered for the particular patient, the user input comprising, (1) first user input identifying the particular patient for which the patient documentation is to be created, and (2) second user input for construction of the patient documentation to be created regarding the episode of health care services rendered to the particular patient, wherein the second user input includes a token comprising a character string to be replaced with information determined based on the electronic patient medical record of the particular patient, (ii) identify the token contained in the second user input, the token comprising a character string that is associated with a sequence of computer executable instructions for, (A) accessing, through the server, the electronic patient medical record for the particular patient identified by the first user input, (B) searching the accessed electronic patient medical record for the particular patient and identifying the existence of a chronic medical condition, (C) determining a duration of the chronic medical disorder by comparing onset date information to current date information, (D) identifying one or more associated conditions that may result from the chronic medical condition, (E) performing a specific search of current medications that are used to treat the chronic medical condition, (F) obtaining, from the electronic patient medical record, one or more recent measurement values for the patient for specific key performance indicators related to the chronic medical condition, (G) correlating particular data obtained in (A) through (F) to additional data and applying rules-based medical logic associated with a quality scoring system to generate, based on the particular data obtained in (A) through (F), a new result that was not previously stored in the electronic patient medical record, (H) inserting information including the new result in (G), in place of the identified token contained in the second user input, and (iii) cause the sequence of computer executable instructions associated with an identified token to be executed, when invoked, for generating the patient documentation regarding the episode of health care services rendered to the particular patient.
