Care Pathway Visualization for Institutional Effectiveness Analysis
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional insurance medical data analysis systems can only predict the overall effectiveness of healthcare measures, failing to verify the effectiveness at the institutional level and support the creation of new measures due to varying cooperative routes among medical institutions.
Innovation Solution
A display method that generates and visualizes a path indicating the route through medical institutions used by each user, using acquired medical information to display the care pathway on a screen, allowing for the evaluation of therapeutic effects and support in creating new measures.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If overall effectiveness of healthcare measures is predicted using conventional insurance medical data analysis systems, then the prediction of overall effectiveness is improved, but the verification of effectiveness at the institutional level and support for creating new measures deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the overall healthcare measure effectiveness into institutional-level paths by dividing the flow graph into conditional branches representing different medical institutions. Each path through the flow graph is tracked separately, allowing measurement of effectiveness at the institutional level rather than only at the overall measure level. This segmentation enables identification of which specific institutional routes produce the best therapeutic effects.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the flow graph for measure includes conditional branches with varying medical institution combinations, then the adaptability to different healthcare scenarios is improved, but the clarity of therapeutic effect verification deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements feedback by calculating index values for each path through the flow graph and comparing them against each other. The system provides feedback information about which institutional combinations produce the best therapeutic effects, allowing users to understand the impact of different conditional branch selections. This feedback mechanism maintains adaptability while restoring clarity by showing the actual therapeutic effect differences between various institutional routes.
3Adaptability or versatility
If medical institutions cooperate through different routes depending on conditional branches, then the responsiveness to patient-specific conditions is improved, but the ability to verify measure effectiveness deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by making the flow graph traversable through multiple paths based on conditional branches, allowing the system to adapt to different patient-specific conditions while maintaining the ability to verify effectiveness. The system dynamically tracks which paths are taken and calculates index values for each path, enabling verification of measure effectiveness for specific patient routes rather than only for fixed, predetermined paths.
