First Claim
1. A system for patient risk level evaluation, implemented with a remote medical care center, wherein the remote medical care center connects with a plurality of health care locations over a network, comprising:
- an input interface, connecting to each of the plurality of health care locations, receiving patient data of a plurality of patients from the plurality of health care locations;
a processor, comprising;
an event determination unit, determining an occurred event for each patient according to the corresponding patient data;
a classification unit, classifying each of the occurred events into a deteriorating category or an ameliorating category;
a group sorting unit, sorting the patients corresponding to the same events into a group, and ranking the patients within the group according to severity of illness of each patient;
a risk evaluation unit, determining a risk score for each patient according to the corresponding event; and
a category ranking unit, generating a patient ranking order, corresponding to the event of the deteriorating category in the order of a high risk score to a low risk score;
and generating a patient ranking order, corresponding to the event of the ameliorating category in the order of a low risk score to a high risk score; and
an output interface, displaying the patient ranking order corresponding to the event of the deteriorating category, and displaying the patient ranking order corresponding to the event of the ameliorating category.

Abstract
A method for patient risk level evaluation is provided, implemented with a remote medical care center. The remote medical care center connects with a plurality of health care locations at various locations over a network. Patient data of a plurality of patients is received from the plurality of health care locations via the network. An occurred event for each patient is determined, and each of the occurred events is classified into deteriorating or ameliorating category. The patients corresponding to the same events are sorted into a group, and the patients within the group are ranked according to severity of illness of each patient. A risk score for each patient is determined according to the corresponding event. Patient ranking orders corresponding to the events of the deteriorating and the ameliorating category are generated and displayed.
