Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer-readable media are provided to detect similarities between two or more clinical documents. It is determined that a clinician is currently inputting data into a first clinical document that is associated with a patient. A selectable option is provided on a user interface into which the clinician is currently inputting the data. An indication is received that the selectable option has been selected by the clinician. An algorithm is applied to identify the second clinical document from a plurality of clinical documents. At least a portion of the inputted data in the first clinical document and at least a portion of data in the second clinical document are transformed to generate a new representation of the first clinical document that indicates the similarities that are potentially inaccurate or inappropriate between the first clinical document and the second clinical document.
