Yeah, so it's at that workflow where they're not getting linked data edges out of their own unstructured data input. To prompt them at that time for whether or not this referenced thing in a dictated .txt file is actually a thing with a URI and have them confirm that those are the correct annotations for their input would save a lot of time and money. Requisite study for Linked Data clinical coding / informatics: - HIPAA and unstructured notes, HIPAA and Linked Data; Informed Consent; Precision Medicine - Tokens; NLP, stemming, conceptual entity recognition - The LODcloud; a great big graph of Linked Open Data (that our data does not yet link to, is siloed separately from, does not yet have references to existing URIs in) - RDFa: RDF-in-html-Attributes - JSON-LD: JSON Linked Data - Schema.org/MedicalEntity ; /docs/schemas.html -> "Health and medical types" https://schema.org/docs/meddocs.html https://schema.org/docs/meddocs.html - TTS Text-to-Speech, Speech-to-Text; Multimodal models with RAG, LORA, RLHF, Transformer Self Attention tensor Networks, Benchmarking OpenAI Whisper with relative performance metrics, ONNX - FHIR for EHR data portability (JSON-LD,) UX Improvements: - More IDE-like unstructured data entry - Auto-annotate this text field in place - Auto-annotate this pasted text - Auto-annotate this text field and display the linked data annotations - Display the revisions of the unstructured note -> annotated linked data document - Autocomplete with search from e.g. icd: - Frequently used annotations per Clinician/Provider - Recently used annotations per Clinician/Provider - Hover over visually distinguished auto-recognized entities and approve/clarify/reject - Indicate which prov:Agent added which annotations; human (name(s)), AI (signed git revision of repo URI) - Indicate degree of confidence in annotation (note that AGI hypergraph systems have TruthValue and also AttentionValue, like attention networks; and that AGI systems may someday also support CDSS: Clinical Decision Support Systems and Health Decision Support Systems)

Right, but physicians currently don't have time to do that and don't get paid for it. For provider organizations it ends up being more profitable to hire certified coders to do the coding so that physicians can focus on treating patients.

  Why aren't they trained in the above, and who will ask large EHR vendors for those features, who would do the asking and is there a forms committee yet?

    It doesn't make sense to train most physicians in coding. We already have a shortage of doctors. They need to focus on directly treating patients while lower paid staff handle other tasks. Most EHRs already have features for building custom data entry template forms for common situations, which can allow for selecting specific codes. Large provider organizations typically have internal committees to design these forms in order to ensure some level of consistency in patient charts.

      Hot take: Most clinicians should code at time of data entry in order to not play telephone with patients' medical information.
