CASE STUDY
NLP for Risk Detection
Melax Technologies’ AI and machine learning simultaneously improved cost, quality measures, and patient health outcomes through highly accurate venous thromboembolism (VTE) detection.
The results our client achieved are iterative across a number of similar readmission risks such as fall risk, infection, Polypharmaceutical interactions, and more. Using NLP to review discharge notes for potential irregularities can improve your results, your patients’ health, and your bottom line.
Detection EXCELLENCE
Extracted medical concepts in clinical notes and mapped them to the best matched ICD-10 code.
Operational OPTIMIZATION
Reduced medical coders’ workload* by one-third (1/3).
*Facility with 20,000 in-patient discharges and 40,000 emergency department visits would need the equivalent of 5.3 coders.
Scalable SAVINGS
