Areas of future work
Area of future work | Description |
---|---|
Model validation | Comprehensive and rigorous module and clinical validation |
Medication adherence | Adherence rates for prescriptions: medications, care plans (eg, physical exercise) – currently patients always take their medicine |
Drug-drug interactions | Prescriptions are applied on a module-by-module basis, and these are not adequately deconflicted by any centralized process |
Physiological data | Modeling organ systems and functions to produce heart rate monitoring streams, etc. |
Imaging data | Procedures such as X-rays and ultrasounds occur and are recorded, but no synthetic imagery is actually produced |
Clinical notes | Highly detailed physician notes are not produced |
Clinician quality | Varying quality of clinicians – currently all clinicians act perfectly according to the modeled standard of care |
System capacity | Currently there is unlimited care, so restricting access to clinicians, hospital beds, etc. |
Claims data | Claims and other financial data in addition to the health record |
