Chart Search API v1

The HealtheIntent Chart Search API enables you to search a patient’s medical record for information related to the patient’s medical history. It provides a list of prioritized results and enables you to review associated documents. The API has access to past and current visits, which enables you to learn more about the patient’s medical history when making clinical decisions. This enhances health care and cost-effectiveness, and helps clinicians avoid repeated tests, procedures, medications, or questions. You can search for a subset of a patient’s medical record by entering a search term or phrase. For example, a search for lipid profile returns a list of every related medical record item associated with a lipid profile evaluation (evaluations, visits, and so on).

The HealtheIntent Chart Search API includes the following capabilities:
• Concept Search: Find information in the medical record based on clinical concepts, such as drug, disease, or symptom. For example, a search for heart attack returns all documents containing the medical concept heart attack and any related concepts, such as myocardial infarction.
• Word Search: Find information based on the presence of specific nonclinical words. For example, a search for heart attack pizza returns all documents with the medical concept heart attack and the term pizza.
• Smart Ranking: Returns the most important search results at the top of the list. The API understands the context and use of each concept and can promote documents to the top of the list that use the concept in the most important context. For example, results found under chief complaints are ranked higher than results found under family history.

You can use the HealtheIntent Chart Search API to search for the following types of information:
• Text documents
• Clinical notes (including Dynamic Documentation)
• Diagnostic reports
• Pathology reports
• Radiology reports
• Discrete measurements
• Vital signs
• Laboratory results

Note: The data retrieved by this API is filtered based on your sensitive data filters for HealtheIntent. Ensure that your implementations of this API are designed with this in mind, and if you integrate data from HealtheIntent into a clinical workflow using this API, ensure that your users are informed of your sensitive data filters. See Understand Sensitive Data in HealtheIntent in the Reference Pages on Cerner Wiki for more information.
