SYSTEM-WIDE PROBABILISTIC ALERTING AND ACTIVATION

Systems, methods, and computer program products that enable system-wide probabilistic forecasting, alerting, optimizing and activating resources in the delivery of care to address both immediate (near real-time) conditions as well as probabilistic forecasted operational states of the system over an interval that is selectable from the current time to minutes, hours and coming days or weeks ahead are provided. There are multiple probabilistic future states that are implemented in these different time intervals and these may be implemented concurrently for an instant in time control, near term, and long term. Those forecasts along with their optimized control of hospital capacity may be independently calculated and optimized, such as for a dynamic workflow direction over the next hour and also a patient's stay over a period of days. In the present application, a probabilistic and conditional workflow reasoning system enabling complex team-based decisions that improve capacity, satisfaction, and safety is provided. A means to consume user(s) judgment, implement control on specific resource assignments and tasks in a clinical workflow is enabled, as is the dynamical and optimal control of the other care delivery assets being managed by the system so as to more probably achieve operating criteria such as throughput, waiting and schedule risk.
