• The advisory rule sets can be fine tuned to improve performance based on the findings of the AMS managers.
• I have been the lead Technologist and Architect for a real time, rule based point-of-care physician advisory system and analytics portal for the point of care team. The product, iLúm, is a collaborative effort run by Confidential (Merck) and several partner companies in medicine, healthcare and aerospace.
• My responsibilities include designing the overall solution and supporting the partner selection with technical evaluations, and HIPPA and SDLC readiness audits. I continue to guide the development partners throughout the development and integration processes to assure compliance to the architectural specification. Additionally, I am responsible for all infrastructure and operations practices for iLúm. We have established an outsourced HIPPA/HiTech compliant cloud architecture and staffed and managed the production support team. I also led the implementation up a private Jira instance supporting collaboration between Confidential and the partner teams who participate in the Jira Service Desk add on for customer support.
• The first release of iLúm is a sepsis-focused rule set that considers the Confidential t medical history, real time EMR interactions by the point of care team, and protocols established for Confidential t care in providing guidance to the team. The expert system provides real time safety and bundle protocol alerts to the medical team as they work with the Confidential t. The advisory alerts appear in real time as dialogs within the EMR display and all dialog responses are recorded.
