The objective was to quantify the activities required for patient-centered medical home (PCMH) transformation in a sample of small to medium-sized National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) recognized practices, and explore barriers and facilitators to transformation. Eleven small to medium-sized PCMH practices in Southeastern Pennsylvania com...

Answer questions and earn CME/CNE Screening to detect polyps or cancer at an early stage has been shown to produce better outcomes in colorectal cancer (CRC). Programs with a population-based approach can reach a large majority of the eligible population and can offer cost-effective interventions with the potential benefit of maximizing early cance...

Background: Evolution of outpatient practice into a model that offers primary care that is accessible, continuous, coordinated, and based on team care, is an objective for health care reform. This model is referred to as the patient centered medical home model (medical home). The structure and process changes required for transformation to the medi...

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the leading cause of blindness among the working age population in the US. Studies have shown that a significant proportion of diabetics do not get their dilated fundus examinations (DFE) as per the recommended clinical guidelines.

Finding similar patents is a challenging task in patent information retrieval. A patent application is often a starting point to find similar inventions. Keyword search for similar patents requires significant domain expertise and may not fetch relevant results. We propose a novel representation for patents and use a two stage approach to find simi...

Invalidity search poses different challenges when compared to conventional Information Retrieval problems. Presently, the success of invalidity search relies on the queries created from a patent application by the patent examiner. Since a lot of time is spent in constructing relevant queries, automatically creating them from a patent would save the...

In this paper we describe experiments conducted for CLEF- IP 2011 Prior Art Retrieval track. We examined the impact of 1) using key phrase extraction to generate queries from input patent and 2) the use of citation network and (International Patent Classification) IPC class vector in ranking patents. Variations of a popular key phrase extraction te...

Making the experience of e-learning more effective requires interactive and collaborative systems to be adaptive and customizable. Specialized learning systems tend to be monolithic and difficult to extend. We present an alternative approach, where we synthesize a customizable learning environment from existing tools (Trac, SVN, reST, SQLite). The...
