Abstract

A method for enabling data interpretation includes receiving a plurality of data entries that are indicative of corresponding health care related events, determining an interest level rating for at least some of the data entries based at least in part on context information associated with a respective entity to which each data entry corresponds, and providing for presentation of selected data entries based on interest level rating. A corresponding computer program product and apparatus are also provided.

Claims (33)

1. A method for enabling data interpretation comprising:

receiving, via one or more processors, a plurality of data entries that are indicative of corresponding health care related events;

determining, via the one or more processors, context information for at least some of the plurality of data entries;

determining, via the one or more processors, an interest level rating for the at least some of the data entries based at least in part on the context information associated with a respective entity to which each data entry corresponds; and

providing, via the one or more processors, for presentation of selected data entries to a user based on the respective interest level ratings, wherein providing for presentation comprises providing for presentation of only the selected data entries of the at least some of the data entries having an interest level rating that triggers presentation of the selected data entries to the user.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining an interest level comprises:

determining an initial interest level based on a baseline interest level for a corresponding type of information associated with a data entry; and

modifying the initial interest level based on the context information associated with the data entry.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining the context information comprises, for each entity, determining the context information based on a treatment protocol into which the entity is enrolled.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein providing for presentation comprises sorting the data entries into a plurality of feeds based on the interest level rating of each data entry and presenting each feed to a respective group of subscribers to a corresponding feed.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein providing for presentation comprises providing a timeline view of events with icons associated with at least some of the events.

6. A computer program product for enabling data interpretation, the computer program product comprising at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer-executable program code instructions stored therein, the computer-executable program code instructions comprising:

program code instructions for receiving a plurality of data entries that are indicative of corresponding health care related events;

program code instructions for determining context information for at least some of the plurality of data entries;

program code instructions for determining an interest level rating for the at least some of the data entries based at least in part on the context information associated with a respective entity to which each data entry corresponds; and

program code instructions for providing for presentation of selected data entries to a user based on the respective interest level ratings, wherein providing for presentation comprises providing for presentation of only the selected data entries of the at least some of the data entries having an interest level rating that triggers presentation of the selected data entries to the user.

7. The computer program product of claim 6 , wherein program code instructions for determining an interest level comprises program code instructions for:

determining an initial interest level based on a baseline interest level for a corresponding type of information associated with a data entry; and

modifying the initial interest level based on the context information associated with the data entry.

8. The computer program product of claim 6 , wherein determining the context information comprises, for each entity, determining the context information based on a treatment protocol into which the entity is enrolled.

9. The computer program product of claim 6 , wherein program code instructions for providing for presentation include instructions for sorting the data entries into a plurality of feeds based on the interest level rating of each data entry and presenting each feed to a respective group of subscribers to a corresponding feed.

10. The computer program product of claim 6 , wherein program code instructions for providing for presentation include instructions for providing a timeline view of events with icons associated with at least some of the events.

11. An apparatus for enabling data interpretation comprising processing circuitry configured to:

receive a plurality of data entries that are indicative of corresponding health care related events;

determine context information for at least some of the plurality of data entries;

determine an interest level rating for the at least some of the data entries based at least in part on the context information associated with a respective entity to which each data entry corresponds; and

provide for presentation of selected data entries to a user based on the respective interest level ratings, wherein providing for presentation comprises providing for presentation of only the selected data entries of the at least some of the data entries having an interest level rating that triggers presentation of the selected data entries to the user.

12. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the processing circuitry is configured to determine an interest level by:

determining an initial interest level based on a baseline interest level for a corresponding type of information associated with a data entry; and

modifying the initial interest level based on the context information associated with the data entry.

13. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the processing circuitry is configured to determine the context information by, for each entity, determining the context information based on a treatment protocol into which the entity is enrolled.

14. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the processing circuitry is configured to provide for presentation by sorting the data entries into a plurality of feeds based on the interest level rating of each data entry and presenting each feed to a respective group of subscribers to a corresponding feed.

15. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the processing circuitry is configured to provide for presentation by providing a timeline view of events with icons associated with at least some of the events.
