Intermediate check points in medical care lines for automatically identifying care deficiencies

摘要

A quality of medical care can be estimated based on factors such as a mortality rate or complications rate. However, by this point, poor care may have already reached its consequence. In some embodiments, characteristics pertaining to a care experience are analyzed to identify those predictive of a health result. The identified characteristics may include ones that depend on care factors, such that they are not, alone, easy to manipulate. Those characteristics can then be monitored, and unsatisfactory characteristics can be addressed.
