Abstract

An electronic processing system agent accesses population health literacy data from at least 100 individuals pertaining to assessed health literacy of members of the population, and demographic data from the population corresponding to age, race, and education level. The agent collects skills data from the patient corresponding to a set of questions relating to skills needed for understanding therapeutic instructions, and personal data relating to the patient's age, race, and education level. The agent carries out a polytomous logistic regression using the collected population health literacy data, demographic data, skills data, and personal data to assign a health literacy level to the patient corresponding to one of a plurality of groups, and communicates a strategy for the patient corresponding to the patient's assigned health literacy level, in real time, to enable the patient to have a communication of therapeutic instructions when the patient has responded to the set of questions.
