Definitions

  • Such raw data reporting fails to explain or infer physician intent for a treatment decision. Nor does such raw data reporting capture the beliefs and behaviors of the physician making the treatment decision, or the patient response to the treatment decision. Since the number of historical raw clinical events is so large, it is currently very difficult for a human to extract from the reported data the physician intent, beliefs, or behaviors. Accordingly, there is a need to leverage advances in machine intelligence, and combine such machine intelligence with expert knowledge to provide an explainable summary of treatment plans and patterns that will allow users to understand, from the reported data, the physician intent, beliefs, or behaviors. [0005] A method of assisting medical treatment decisions is provided herein.

  • the unstructured data can include real world data, scientific document data, and expert knowledge data corresponding to the patient journeys.

  • the treatment pattern can be displayed as a sequence of treatment blocks, e.g., interconnected by visual connectors.

  • FIG. 1 a model of an example ecosystem for providing medical treatment is shown in accordance with an embodiment.
  • the medical treatment ecosystem 100 includes several stakeholders that interact to provide treatment to a patient 102 (or a group of patients). Stakeholders include a physician 104 (or a group of physicians) that treats the patient 102.
  • the physician(s) 104 interact with representatives of health systems 106, e.g., hospitals and hospital administrators, as well as representatives of pharmaceutical companies 108, e.g., sales and marketing representatives, to make appropriate decisions about treating the patient 102.
  • pharmaceutical representatives can communicate with the physician 104 and/or the patient 102 to provide education and recommendations regarding treatments that could benefit the patient 102 based on the particular characteristics of the patient.
  • characteristics can include co-morbidities, genetic mutations, and other attributes that medical experts within the pharmaceutical company 108 have determined as being indicative that the patient 102 can benefit from the treatments.
  • the pharmaceutical company 108 can educate the health systems 106 as well as representatives of payers 110, e.g., insurance company representatives, to help the market move toward valuable treatments and to efficiently price those treatments.
  • pharmaceutical companies use customer relationship management (CRM) systems and tools to educate and communicate with physicians 104, patients 102, health systems 106, and payers 110.
  • CRM systems are typically accessed by representatives of the pharmaceutical company 108 who are insulated from each other, and who communicate separately with counterparts in the ecosystem. For example, a marketing representative, a sales representative, and a medical expert from the pharmaceutical company 108 may each communicate individually with the physician 104 and the patient 102.
  • an account representative may communicate with the health system 106, and a market access representative may communicate with the payer 110.
  • the communications are siloed and are part of a “one size fits all” approach because existing CRM systems do not have access to real-time insights about the patient characteristics or the physician treatment patterns, which would otherwise allow for personalized treatments to be recommended to benefit the patient 102. More particularly, while existing CRM systems may contain a mass of raw data about treatments, they cannot be used to efficiently and accurately determine and provide real-time insights about patients and physician education, knowledge, beliefs and behaviors, which may influence treatment decisions on a per- patient basis. [0033] Referring to FIG. 2, a model of an example approach to educating and communicating to assist medical treatment decisions for providing medical treatment to a patient is shown in accordance with an embodiment.
  • the embodiments described herein fill the gap left by existing CRM systems. Rather than follow a “one-size-fits-all” approach, the systems and methods described below follow a patient-centered, data-driven, personalized approach to providing education and communication.
  • This approach rather than being siloed, is coordinated and integrated in that information about the patient 102 and the physician 104 flow to the system, which may be used by the pharmaceutical company 108 to develop insights about the patient characteristics or the physician treatment patterns.
  • Such information can be provided as real-world data collected from electronic medical record (EMR) systems, or entered through client devices used by the patient 102 or the physician 104.
  • EMR electronic medical record
  • This coordinated information flow can allow the pharmaceutical company 108 representatives to communicate targeted treatment options that are personalized to the patient 102 or the physician 104.
  • the system itself can be used by the physician 104, the patient 102, the health system 106, or the payer 110 to access the insights that are most helpful to any of those entities.
  • the members of the ecosystem can be engaged through marketing channels or directly by the treatment assistance platform described below to help make the right treatment decision for the patient 102.

  • This distribution of computing systems 302 amongst the various stakeholders is provided by way of example, however, and it will be appreciated that the computing system 302 may be viewed as a distributed computing network having several devices under the control of the ecosystem members, and running all or a portion of the treatment system platform while interconnected by the communications network 308. Accordingly, the solution can be integrated at a point of care, in a pharmaceutical company CRM system, or other locations.
