CaveGrouper-Lite groups over 15,000 ICD-9 and 68,000 ICD-10 diagnosis codes into meaningful medical conditions that account for 100% of all medical conditions and expenditures.
The software builds longitudinal episodes of care for acute conditions like upper respiratory infections, sinusitis and for chronic conditions like diabetes and asthma.
CaveGrouper-Lite employs a static window period.
Initially, output from the software will present detailed episode-of-care information for 25 of the most prevalent medical conditions in the US today.
