Abstract:

The Episode Builder according to exemplary embodiments of the present invention is a web-based computer application and its associated architecture that allows health care professionals to define and describe episodes of care. The Episode Builder provides a unique tool for these purposes. Using industry-standard code sets, the Episode Builder describes and defines an episode of care so that the health care professional can create and modify episodes for a variety of purposes. The three main components of the Episode Builder are a configurable and extensive code set management system, a suite of display panels that define the episodes themselves based upon the code sets, and a means to export the episode definition tables thus created to be used as inputs into an analytic program or a claims adjudication engine.
