These are the Clinical Factors that are a component of the Patient Recovery Factors.
Clinical Conditions
Clinical Conditions are elements of the clinical factors in patient recovery. Medicare has developed a model to categorize the clinical conditions factors in order to risk risk adjust health insurers that are covering patients. The CMS-HCC Risk Adjustments model adjust for patient demographics (i.e., age, disabled) and disease (i.e., diabetes, congested heart failure).
Allergies & Adverse Drug Reactions
Comorbidities
Comorbidities are chronic disorders (or diseases) that need to be managed. Most comorbidities do not get cured. Comorbidities include behavioral or mental disorders.
- Alzheimer's disease

Genomes
- Human Genome]
- Microbiome (and other resident bacteria)
- Proteome - set of proteins expressed by a genome, cell, tissue or organism at a given time, under defined conditions.
- Metabolites - are small molecules with metabolism functions of fuel, structure, signaling, stimulatory and inhibitory effects on enzymes and other catalytic activities
- Tumors - abnormal mass of tissue as a result of abnormal growth or division of cells
- Viruses - small infectious agent that replicates only inside the living cells of other organisms
Immunizations
- Flu
