In an on-demand computing environment, diagnostic codes from a vehicle or other system in transit are transmitted to an opportunity server, which forwards the codes to a supplemental diagnostic service provider. The diagnostic service provider determines if supplemental diagnostics software functions are available, and if so, downloads them to the vehicle. After executing the supplemental diagnostics, the vehicle reports updated codes to the opportunity server. Multiple cycles of selection, downloading and execution of supplemental diagnostics may be performed until fault isolation is achieved, following which the opportunity server issues requests for bids to potential repair service provides. Responding offers are received, coalesced and presented to the operator. The operator of the vehicle is presented with one or more coalesced offers, upon selection of which, a service is scheduled.

The invention generally relates to vehicle diagnostic systems and their methods of use, and more particularly, to a hand-held automotive diagnostic code-reader/scan tool with data link connector (DTC) which straps to the user's arm and is comprised of a touch screen, a VIN bar code/number scanner, a credit card reader, a printer, and internet and cell phone connections to a variety of servers for credit card approval, billing and vehicle diagnostics. The credit card is scanned and billed followed by scanning the vehicle VIN number or bar code and sending the information to the vehicle OBD2 server who identifies the vehicle, orders the handheld tool to perform certain tests upon the vehicle and in turn performs a diagnosis. A live wireless cell phone connection may be made, if necessary, with a technician at the OBD2 server for tech support. Test results are returned to the hand tool which prints out the results, prints a credit card receipt and sends a record of the transaction to the operators server Corp. for record keeping.

A system and method provides remote diagnostics testing of a data processing system. Diagnostics testing code is stored in a non-volatile memory in the system. A diagnostic test indicator (e.g., in the form of flag in a CMOS RAM) is settable by a signal from a controlling computer system remote from the data processing system. The signal requests that diagnostics testing is to be performed on the data processing system. When the data processing system is rebooted, the CMOS flag is checked and if found to be set, the diagnostics code is invoked and diagnostic testing is performed. When the diagnostics testing is complete and results have been logged in the non-volatile storage, the code causes the flag to be reset and the data processing system to be rebooted. The results are transferred, on request, to the remote controlling computer system for analysis.

An improved code reader for reading and displaying OBD II diagnostic codes. The code reader displays textual diagnosis descriptions corresponding to diagnostic codes. The code reader can display both an OBD II code and the textual diagnosis description corresponding to a selected OBD II code by using multiple display rows for the display. The improved code reader also uses an improved user interface.

Systems and methods for automated processing of medical information in electronic patient medical record databases, wherein billing information (e.g., diagnosis codes, procedural codes) is automatically extracted from electronic patient medical records through comprehensive analysis of clinical information included in the patient medical records using a knowledge base of domain-specific criteria. The extracted billing information can be automatically processed for purposes of, e.g., medical claims correction, medical claims billing, quality assurance of recorded billing information, or claim reimbursement tracking.

A system and method operable to collect user created content uploaded to an online community, including uniform codes and terms, and determine a category of related content that the user is most likely to be interested in. Embodiments of the system and method are particularly adapted to systematically parse and compare user created content and diagnostic codes linked to such content to a database of search terms, weighting the matched terms, and assigning at least one most relevant medical sensitive disposition category to a user profile to provide relevant advertising and topic content.

A method is provided for enhancing service diagnostics utilizing service repair data of previously serviced vehicles. Service repair data of previously serviced vehicles is obtained from a memory storage device. The service data is compiled into a service diagnostic code dataset and a service labor code dataset. The service diagnostic code dataset and service labor code dataset are categorized into an electronic data table. Respective combinations are formed in the electronic data table. An aggregate count is determined for each respective combination in the electronic data table. Either of a respective diagnostic code or a respective service labor code is identified having a correlation with more than one of either service diagnostic codes or service labor codes. At least one of a service repair procedure used to repair the vehicle or a respective service diagnostic code used to identify the fault is modified in response to analyzing the respective combinations.

The invention discloses an automatic disease coding method and system. The method comprises the following steps: input data is received; the input data comprises original diagnosis data and medical history file data, the input original diagnosis data and medical history file data are subjected to preprocessing operation, whether a result can be obtained is determined after searching operation is conducted in standard classification and coding of ICD-10; if no, the original diagnosis data is subjected to word segmenting operation, associating and converting operation and matching tree searchingoperation; an optimal result is screened out from matching tree processing results; if the result is not optimal, the result is split; each single disease name is subjected to the word segmenting operation, the associating and converting operation and the matching tree searching operation; the optimal result is screened out from matching tree processing results or the medical history file data, coding accuracy of the result is assessed, and a coding result and an accuracy assessment result are output. A problem that standard diagnosis coding systems adopted by all medical institutions are notunified can be effectively solved.

The method allows for the accurate determination of an error source and provides appropriate service action if and when the system fails to recover from the UE condition.

A test apparatus sends a command to an A-control module as a destination. The command includes a request to send fault information at the A-control module and a B-control module being included in an integrated ECU to the test apparatus. The A-control module reads the own diagnostic code and orders the B-control module to read the diagnostic code of the B-control module. The B-control module reads the own diagnostic code in response to the order from the A-control module. A response data generation module in the A-control module generates a fault information command based on the diagnostic codes detected by the A-control module and the B-control module and sends the command to the test apparatus.

A handheld device, such as a personal digital assistant ("PDA"), can be used at the point-of-care to find an appropriate pair of diagnosis code and procedure code for use in writing an order for further medical procedures for a particular patient. The choice of diagnosis code and procedure code can be checked for conformance with the requirements set forth in a particular set of medical necessity policy rules. In a preferred embodiment, the codes and rules are aggregated by medical specialty so that a specialist can work with solely those codes and rules that are relevant to that particular medical specialty.
