A Natural Language Understanding system is provided for indexing of free text documents. The system according to the invention utilizes typographical and functional segmentation of text to identify those portions of free text that carry meaning. The system then uses words and multi-word terms and phrases identified in the free to text to identify concepts in the free text. The system uses a lexicon of terms linked to a formal ontology that is independent of a specific language to extract concepts from the free text based on the words and multi-word terms in the free text. The formal ontology contains both language independent domain knowledge concepts and language dependent linguistic concepts that govern the relationships between concepts and contain the rules about how language works. The system according to the current invention may preferably be used to index medical documents and assign codes from independent coding systems, such as, SNOMED, ICD-9 and ICD-10. The system according to the current invention may also preferably make use of syntactic parsing to improve the efficiency of the method.

A system and method for automatic assignment of medical codes to unformatted data is, for example, a computer software module or engine. The engine automatically assigns medical codes such as ICD codes (ICD9 and ICD10 as well as other versions) to unformatted or uncoded medical documents (e.g. medical notes, discharge summaries, etc.). The system reads a document and then scans (assesses) it for diagnoses associated with the medical codes. When diagnosis is identified, the system can also examine the language context in which the diagnosis appears. Using rules derived from syntactic and semantic usage, the system decides whether to apply an identified ICD code to the document being processed or not. The output of the module, a set of medical codes and the corresponding diagnoses that conform to the widely accepted syntactic and semantic rules associated with coding, can then be stored in or applied to a number of different mediums, such as data base entries, attachments to the document itself, email to the owner of the document, electronic or paper forms, etc.

A network for mediating the peer-to-peer transfer of digital patient medical data includes a plurality of distributed agents each associated with a health care provider and connected to a central system. Periodically the agents collect local information relating to patient medical files and / or data streams, for example diagnostic images and associated reports, and process that information into metadata files acting as pointers to the original files. The metadata files are transmitted to the central system where they are parsed and the attributes are stored on the central system in patient records with records from the same patient grouped together whenever possible.Registered users can search the central system, even in the absence of a unique identifier, to identify patient records pointing to the remote patient medical files. Upon finding a patient medical file, the invention provides a streamlined process for communicating access authorization from the patient to the hospital or facility storing the medical files. Once patient authorization is received, secure processes are provided for transferring the data in its entirety to or for viewing by the user in a peer-to-peer fashion.
