Full Service Mapping Solutions
We provide a full service terminology mapping solution that includes automated mapping algorithms, human curation of generated maps, and subject matter expertise to author and maintain mappings for a variety of use cases.
We can load initial map data from a variety of different sources or start a new mapping project from scratch!
Start with Automation
Mapping projects are more successful when they begin from a strategic starting point and allow human curation to provide finishing touches and quality assurance.
Our Automap Platform uses a pipeline that takes coded or raw text input and produces matches in the desired output coding scheme with confidence levels. We use a combination of AI/ML, lexical matching, and semantic rules to identify and rank potential matches. This results in a starting point for mappings that can reduce overall human effort (and cost) by 80%.
Curation with a Human Touch
Automated mapping approaches are best used to seed map projects with candidates for connecting one terminology to another. From there, expert human reviewers can curate and maintain those maps to provide high-quality, use-case specific connections between terminologies.
We have worked on use cases such as public health reporting, medical coding, linking national drug databases, and linking consumer entered healthcare statements to conditions and procedures.
Expertise On-Demand
In addition to technology solutions, we provide professional subject matter expertise to build and maintain your healthcare terminology mappings for now and into the future. We have content experts to cover all of the core domain areas including conditions, labs, medications, procedures, and more.
