Terminology Cleanup and Normalization
The use of structured
terminology to store clinical data has been relatively limited to date. However
many healthcare organizations have been storing information in the computer for
years. The data has been stored in the form of free-text or using administrative
codes like ICD-9 and CPT. We can help you determine best strategies to the
getting value you want from the existing data.
Specifically, we can...
-
Analyze
unstructured/semi-structured data and determine best bang-for-the-buck to
“clean-up” so that your organization can get the next increment of value
from the data
-
Review a proprietary/home-grown
terminology for duplication, ambiguities, and inconsistencies and make
recommendations for changes.
- Perform clean-up
on user entered data, normalizing to desired terminology
