<p>Pharmacy OneSource is a SaaS provider of applications for

This case study will discuss the steps taken to develop a
next-generation patient surveillance platform that allows
clinicians to accurately detect risk factors, and perform
interventions. The platform leverages the GigaSpaces
implementation of Tuple-space and the Drools rule engine
to create a massively parallel expert system. This
architecture allows for customizable handling of millions
of HL7 messages per day, evaluation of thousands of
clinician created business rules, and reasoning over
hundreds of thousands of patient data facts to provide
near-real-time surveillance.</p>

<p>The use of Rules and Business Process Management are a

describe how Medicare and Medicaid work and how the
government (Federal and State) is looking for Rules and
BPM to help change both the administrative and clinical
