@JFrederickR Wow, thanks for the reference! That was a fun paper and a fun thought arc. I agree with @jessiet1023 that sometimes it seems that NLP of narrative text will best out the benefits of structured documentation. And that seems to be the bulk of the research these days. /1 #AMIA2019
@JFrederickR @jessiet1023 We however lose a lot of the value of structured documentation when we emphasize only expressivity and NLP for data. Structured entry allows prompting and completeness. Maybe also accuracy and efficiency too. I think of this as DDS (documentation decision support). /2 #AMIA2019
@JFrederickR @jessiet1023 I remember Stephen Johnson’s thoughtful paper about “Structured Narrative” which found a way to combine the two. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P… But like many such ideas, it is lost away in academia never to be implemented in the wider vendory world. /3 #AMIA2019
