Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional communication platforms for ongoing health management and treatment plans often require significant user and provider effort, leading to personal health issues and lost revenue due to inadequate adherence and follow-through.

Innovation Solution

A customizable communication platform that selects and implements a treatment plan, links identifiers, launches a treatment plan application, retrieves and populates treatment information, and dispatches messages to monitor patient status, ensuring timely and effective health management through automated messaging and data integration with third-party services.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If automated messaging and data integration are implemented, then patient adherence to treatment plans is enhanced, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepatient adherenceVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables automated self-service communication where the platform automatically dispatches treatment plan information, monitors patient status, and sends reminders without requiring continuous manual intervention from healthcare providers. This automation enhances patient adherence while managing system complexity through standardized workflows.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The communication platform integrates multiple functions including treatment plan distribution, patient status monitoring, automated messaging, and data integration with third-party services into a single unified system. This multi-functionality addresses various aspects of patient adherence within one platform, though it increases overall system complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Productivity

If manual communication methods are used for treatment plans, then system complexity is reduced, but productivity is lost due to inadequate adherence and follow-through

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvehealth management effectivenessVSAvoidtime for adherence monitoring
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements automated feedback loops where patient responses to treatment plans are automatically tracked, monitored, and followed up through standardized communication workflows. This ensures timely adherence monitoring and follow-through without requiring manual tracking of each patient interaction.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The platform prepares and dispatches treatment plan communications in advance according to scheduled timelines, automatically initiating follow-up sequences and reminders before adherence issues arise. This preliminary automated action ensures timely interventions without requiring real-time manual monitoring.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Measurement precision

If comprehensive data integration with third-party services is implemented, then measurement precision of patient status is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvepatient status accuracyVSAvoidintegration complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The communication platform serves as an intermediary layer that integrates with multiple third-party services through standardized interfaces and protocols. This mediator approach enables comprehensive data integration for accurate patient status monitoring while managing integration complexity through unified communication standards and abstraction layers.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

Processing patient information and other treatment plan information may require access to a patient profile and other third parties involved in the patient treatment plan. One example method includes selecting a treatment plan for a patient comprising a set of treatment information, linking an application identifier and a T-code identifier to the treatment plan, launching a treatment plan application, retrieving the set of treatment information, populating the treatment plan application with the set of treatment information, triggering a message dispatch in accordance with the treatment plan, the message dispatch including a query to a health related issue to determine a patient status and receiving a patient response to the message.
