DOCLE (Doctor Command Language), [1] [2] is a non-numeric health coding and medical classification system. The DOCLE system is used [3] in Health Communication Network's electronic medical record and patient management software package, Medical Director. Medical Director is the most widely used electronic medical record system by Australian primary health care providers.[ citation needed]
DOCLE has been modelled on the Linnaean biological classification system since 1995. [4] DOCLE generates clinical codes from ubiquitous health language using an algorithm, hence it is a human readable clinical coding system. [4]
The design principles of DOCLE, as enumerated by the author in the DOCLE website include:
