Abstract
Computer-based, natural language processing systems and methods are provided for review of clinical documentation and other medical records, and for clinical documentation improvement. The systems and methods are configured to analyze received diagnoses and/or procedures in view of documents in the record using a natural language processor and a tiered information model to identify clinical indicators, and optionally markers. The identified information is compared with the received data for use in generating queries requesting evidence in support of the received diagnosis or procedure, or for use in validating the received information.
