1. In a medical information navigation engine (MINE), a computerized method of transacting health information comprising:
- receiving a health information request (HIR) from a user;
retrieving and meta-tagging health information in response to the HIR using a medical information navigation engine (MINE) wherein meta-tagging the health information includes;
identifying and tagging medical concepts associated with the meta-tagged health information, wherein the tagging medical concepts includes identifying associations between HIR data and medical concepts, wherein the medical concepts are standardized codes and text data medically related to a search term;
appending the identified medical concepts to the health information of the HIR;
identifying all additional medical concepts associated with the health information of the HIR as new information is added to the health information of the HIR to generate multiple levels of associated medical concepts;
determining associations between medical concepts by assembling every element of the health information into pairs with all other elements of the health information, and assigning a degree of association measured between each element of the pair;
annotating associations between multiple levels of associated medical concepts in a hierarchical structure;
processing the HIR to determine whether each of the medical concepts in the health information of the HIR is positive or negated based upon reference;
wherein the medical concepts include medications, allergies, problems and diagnoses, procedures, immunizations, measurements, observations and symptoms;
creating multi-dimensional relationships between the medical concepts using the MINE, wherein the multi-dimensional relationships indicate relevancy of apixions along dimensions of the multi-dimensional relationships; and
wherein the meta-tagged health information is reconciled by mapping based on at least one semantic concept; and
providing relevant health information based on the multi-dimensional relationships to the user.

Abstract
A method is disclosed to receive health information request (HIR), including health information request query (HIRQ) and health information request data (HIRD), and to metatag the received HIR. The metatagged HIR is reconciled based on a semantic concept and HIRS is returned.

9. A medical information navigation engine (MINE) configured to transact health information, the MINE comprising:
-
a processor completing the steps of; meta-tag health information in response to a health information request (HIR) from a user, wherein the meta-tagging of the health information includes identifying and tagging medical concepts associated with the meta-tagged health information, wherein the tagging medical concepts includes identifying associations between HIR data and medical concepts, wherein the medical concepts are standardized codes and text data medically related to a search term; append the identified medical concepts to the health information of the HIR; identify all additional medical concepts associated with the health information of the HIR as new information is added to the health information of the HIR to generate multiple levels of associated medical concepts; determine associations between medical concepts by assembling every element of the health information into pairs with all other elements of the health information, and assigning a degree of association measured between each element of the pair; annotate associations between multiple levels of associated medical concepts in a hierarchical structure; and process the HIR to determine whether each of the medical concepts in the health information of the HIR is positive or negated based upon reference, wherein the medical concepts include medications, allergies, problems and diagnoses, procedures, immunizations, measurements, observations and symptoms; a mapper configured to create multi-dimensional relationships between the medical concepts, wherein the multi-dimensional relationships indicate relevancy of apixions along dimensions of the multi-dimensional relationships, and wherein the meta-tagged health information is reconciled by mapping based on at least one semantic concept; and a visualizer configured to provide relevant health information based on the multi-dimensional relationships to the user. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
