Integrating case management and utilization management.

Abstract

Over the years the utilization review coordinator's role has evolved to more than quality assessment, risk management, and utilization management. Recognizing the need to expand the traditional role, one hospital integrated two positions: case management and utilization management. A 2-mont pilot defining roles, responsibilities, outcomes, and future goals is described.

Markup of temporal information in electronic health records.

Temporal information plays a critical role in the understanding of clinical narrative (i.e., free text). We developed a representation for marking up temporal information in a narrative, consisting of five elements: 1) reference point, 2) direction, 3) number, 4) time unit, and 5) pattern. We identified 254 temporal expressions from 50 discharge summaries and represented them using our scheme. The overall inter-rater reliability among raters applying the representation model was 75 percent agreement. The model can contribute to temporal reasoning in computer systems for decision support, data mining, and process and outcomes analyses by providing structured temporal information.
