  Interactive patient communication development system for reporting on patient healthcare managementUSPTO Application #: 20070021984Title: Interactive patient communication development system for reporting on patient healthcare management Abstract: A modular interactive system and method for customizing health education to an individual at a remote terminal to induce a modification in a health-related behavior of the individual. The automated system includes a questionnaire generator for questioning the individual to determine his or her motivational drivers and comprehension capacity. The questionnaire generator is a graphical user interface that allows a clinician to graphically attach questions to answer to action. A processor then generates a script program based on what the clinician has attached together. A profile generator receives answers entered by the individual from the remote terminal and generates a motivational driver profile and a comprehension capacity profile of the individual. A translator receives clinical data relating to a current health condition of the individual and translates the clinical data, the motivational driver profile, and the comprehension capacity profile into a profile code. An educational fulfillment bank matches the profile code to matching educational materials and transfers the matched educational materials to the remote terminal. An evaluation program evaluates educational responses of the individual and provides profile updates for targeting subsequent educational material to the individual based on the educational responses.

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] This is a continuation of co-pending application Ser. No. 09/810,334, filed Mar. 14, 2001, which is herein incorporated by reference. FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0002] The present invention relates generally to a modular interactive development system and method for reporting on patient management, and in particular to an automated content delivery program able to connect remote users across independent platforms to a central database of libraries whereby a patient's health can be scored dynamically. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0003] This invention relates to the field of health management, particularly to an automated interactive system and method for reducing the risk associated with a monitored client. [0004] For example, the know art includes a number of health-management systems for providing outpatient services to patients with chronic health conditions such as asthma and diabetes. However, these systems are incapable of administering a treatment protocol responsive to the patient's current profile and of updating the profile in response to the administered protocol. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0005] This invention presents a flexible and scalable system in content development for patient management healthcare. Due to the modular object oriented-structure, individual content modules ("dialogs") can be mixed into an unlimited number of undatable customized programs, addressing individual as well as co-existing disease states ("co-morbid") in any combinations, and with automated content variation for improved patient compliance. A dialog is the smallest content object in the FlexCube content structure. Its content addresses issues related to a unique set of symptoms, behaviors or knowledge related to a specific aspect of managing a certain disease referred to as an aspect of care. [0006] In its basic format, each dialog contains questions related to signs and symptoms, behaviors and knowledge with answers categorized as high, medium or low risk answers. For each answer there is a relevant follow up, which can be a teaching statement, an acknowledgment, a motivational statement or a new question that will explore the patient's condition in more depth. While the logical branching within a dialog is driven by patient answers, no dependency exists between individual dialogs. [0007] Dialogs are located in a common pool organized by library. From this library each individual dialog is referenced for participation (appearance) in programs and daily sessions. A dialog's behavior in a program (schedule, position, reporting) is defined at the time of the dialog creation or it is custom defined during the program content selection process. In this way dialogs maintain their integrity while being used and re-used in several client programs. They combine freely with other dialogs in user defined program selections, allowing an unlimited combination of aspects of care and co-existing diseases. Finally, they are easily accessible for revisions and updates. [0008] The present invention provides an object-oriented dialog and modular toolkit structure that enhances quality control options. Also included are the centrally located content objects that offer overview and tracking of the currently active content, global error correction and global update of content to current standards of care. Because the present invention splits up interfaces for content creation and content selection into separate modules, the present invention exercises control over customer's access to content development in compliance with current and future Federal Drug Administration labeling. Finally the system's structure limits logical branching errors to within a dialog, thereby offering a more robust and less error prone system overall. [0009] Since the content of a dialog and the output of a dialog is related and mapped to a specific aspect of care, the user will have the power and flexibility to model risk evaluation and outcomes reporting around custom selected aspects of care.
