Advantages: In-stream medical coding
Many organisations lose time due to hand-offs between medical coders and data managers. Timaeus avoids this by enabling in-stream medical coding.
Integrated hand-off from data capture
Because everyone works from the same data set, there is no need to extract, feed and reconcile data from EDC systems to medical coding systems. Medical coding is able to begin upon capture of data by sites.
Automated coding pre-processor
Timaeus includes a medical coding module that automatically codes captured data based on the trial's one configuration point. The algorithm used in Timaeus produces a high “hit rate” for automatic coding (routinely exceeding 90%). As a result, the majority of data are coded without any manual intervention from the point data capture.
Integrated hand-off to data managers
Because medical coders and data managers are operating from the same clinical data repository, there is no need to extract, feed and reconcile data from medical coding to CDM and reporting systems. This eliminates data integration effots and enables medical coders and data managers to raise and resolve queries in real time.
