Testing of whether the treatment of a patient in a health organization corresponds to that of a treatment code assigned to the patient using a computer based knowledge system and associated plausibility testing

Method for testing of medical codes assigned to a patient in a health organization, whereby the codes are assigned to a medical profile of the patient (3). Method has the following steps: transmission of the code to a central database (37); transmission of suitable medical data relating to a description of patient treatment to the database; and testing whether the actual treatment corresponds to the assigned code. An Independent claim is made for a system for plausibility testing to determine if suggested treatment of a patient corresponds to that of an assigned code. Coding can be according to the International Classification of Diseases, the International Classification of Procedures in Medicine or Diagnosis Related Groups. Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren für eine Überprüfung von einem Patienten (3, 31) zugeordneten Kodierungen im Gesundheitswesen, wobei die Kodierungen einem medizinischen Profil des Patienten (3, 31) zugeordnet sind. Die Erfindung betrifft außerdem ein System für eine Überprüfung von einem Patienten (3, 31) zugeordneten Kodierungen im Gesundheitswesen.
