Abstract

Systems and methods of predicting documentation associated with an encounter between attendees are provided. For instance, attendee data indicative of one or more previous visit notes associated with a first attendee can be obtained. The attendee data can be inputted into a machine-learned note prediction model that includes a neural network. The neural network can generate one or more context vectors descriptive of the attendee data. Data indicative of a predicted visit note can be received as output of the machine-learned note prediction model based at least in part on the context vectors. The predicted visit note can include a set of predicted information expected to be included in a subsequently generated visit note associated with the first attendee.

Claims (56)

1. A computer-implemented method of predicting documentation associated with an encounter between attendees, the method comprising:

obtaining, by one or more computing devices, attendee data indicative of one or more previously generated visit notes associated with a first attendee of a subject encounter between the first attendee and a second attendee;

inputting, by the one or more computing devices, the attendee data into a machine-learned note prediction model comprising a first neural network and a second neural network;

generating, by the one or more computing devices, one or more context vectors as output of the first neural network;

inputting, by the one or more computing devices, the one or more context vectors into the second neural network; and

receiving as output of the machine-learned note prediction model, by the one or more computing devices, data indicative of a predicted new visit note, the predicted new visit note comprising a set of predicted information expected to be included in a subsequently generated visit note associated with a subsequent encounter of the first attendee.

2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, by the one or more computing devices, one or more prediction vectors as output of the second neural network, the one or more prediction vectors being descriptive of information to potentially be included in the predicted visit note.

3. The computer-implemented method of claim 2 , further comprising:

providing, by the one or more computing devices, the one or more prediction vectors as input to a suggestion model of the note prediction model; and

providing, by the one or more computing devices, data indicative of a first text entry input by a user as input to the suggestion model;

wherein the set of predicted information comprises one or more suggested text entries determined based at least in part on the one or more prediction vectors and the data indicative of the first text entry.

4. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the attendee data comprises data indicative of one or more previously generated visit notes for the first attendee, each previously generated visit note being associated with a previous encounter of the first attendee.

5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the attendee data comprises data associated with the subject encounter between the first attendee and the second attendee.

6. The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , wherein the data associated with the subject encounter comprises data provided to a user computing device prior to a generation of a visit note associated with the subject encounter.

7. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the predicted new visit note is provided in a format determined based at least in part on the one or more previously generated visit notes.

8. The computer-implemented method of claim 7 , wherein the data indicative of the predicted new visit note comprises substantive information expected to be included in the subsequently generated visit note associated with the subject encounter based at least in part on the attendee data.

9. The computer-implemented method of claim 7 , wherein the predicted new visit note is presented as a template visit note.

10. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:

training, by the one or more computing devices, the note prediction model based on a set of training data;

wherein training, by the one or more computing devices, the note prediction model comprises backpropagating, by the one or more computing devices, a loss function through the note prediction model.

11. The computer-implemented method of claim 10 , wherein the training data comprises data indicative of a plurality of global visit notes.

12. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the training data comprises data indicative of a plurality of doctor specific visit notes.

13. A computing system, comprising:

one or more processors; and

one or more memory devices, the one or more memory devices storing computer-readable instructions that when executed by the one or more processors cause the one or more processors to perform operations, the operations comprising:

obtaining attendee data indicative of one or more previously generated visit notes associated with a first attendee of a subject encounter between the first attendee and a second attendee;

inputting the attendee data into a machine-learned note prediction model comprising a first neural network and a second neural network;

generating one or more context vectors as output of the first neural network;

inputting the one or more context vectors into the second neural network; and

receiving as output of the machine-learned note prediction model data indicative of a predicted new visit note, the predicted new visit note comprising a set of predicted information expected to be included in a subsequently generated visit note associated with a subsequent encounter of the first attendee.

14. The computing system of claim 13 , wherein the operations further comprise:

receiving one or more prediction vectors as output of the second neural network, the one or more prediction vectors being descriptive of information to potentially be included in the predicted new visit note.

15. The computing system of claim 14 , wherein the operations further comprise:

providing the one or more prediction vectors as input to a suggestion model of the note prediction model; and

providing data indicative of a first text entry input by a user as input to the suggestion model;

wherein the set of predicted information comprises one or more suggested text entries determined based at least in part on the one or more prediction vectors and the data indicative of the first text entry.

16. A computer-implemented method of predicting documentation associated with an encounter between attendees, the method comprising:

obtaining, by one or more computing devices, attendee data indicative of one or more previously generated visit notes associated with a first attendee of a subject encounter between the first attendee and a second attendee;

inputting, by the one or more computing devices, the attendee data into a machine-learned note prediction model comprising one or more neural networks;

receiving, by the one or more computing devices as output of at least one of the one or more neural networks, one or more prediction vectors descriptive of information to potentially be included in a predicted new visit note;

providing, by the one or more computing devices, the one or more prediction vectors as input to a suggestion model of the note prediction model; and

receiving as output of the machine-learned note prediction model, by the one or more computing devices, data indicative of the predicted new visit note, the predicted new visit note comprising a set of predicted information expected to be included in a subsequently generated visit note associated with a subsequent encounter of the first attendee.

17. The computer-implemented method of claim 16 , further comprising:

receiving, by the one or more computing devices, one or more context vectors as output of a first neural network of the one or more neural networks; and
