HIPAA Compliance: Redact Patient PII

After extracting data, redact patient PII from the original document before sharing, archiving, or sending to an LLM:

# Step 1: Extract structured data (keep the data you need)
with open("patient_record.pdf", "rb") as f:
    extract_job = requests.post(
        f"{BASE}/v1/process",
        headers=headers,
        files={"file": f},
        data={"schema": schema},
    ).json()

# Step 2: Redact PII from the original (clean copy for filing)
with open("patient_record.pdf", "rb") as f:
    redact_job = requests.post(
        f"{BASE}/v1/pii/redact",
        headers=headers,
        files={"file": f},
    ).json()

# Poll for redaction results
redact_id = redact_job["id"]
delay = 5
while True:
    time.sleep(delay)
    result = requests.get(f"{BASE}/v1/pii/{redact_id}", headers=headers).json()
    if result["status"] == "completed":
        report = result["report"]
        print(f"Redacted {report['total_redactions']} PII instances")
        for pii_type, info in report["pii_detected"].items():
            print(f"  {pii_type}: {info['count']} found")

        # Download redacted file
        pdf = requests.get(result["redacted_file_url"]).content
        with open("patient_record_redacted.pdf", "wb") as f:
            f.write(pdf)
        print("Saved: patient_record_redacted.pdf")
        break
    elif result["status"] == "failed":
        print(f"Failed: {result.get('error')}")
        break
    delay = min(delay * 1.5, 15)

DeepRead's PII redaction is context-aware for medical documents:

• "Dr. Sarah Chen" on letterhead — physician, SKIP
• "Sarah Chen" on intake form — patient, REDACT
• "[email protected]" — institutional email, SKIP
• "[email protected]" — personal email, REDACT
• Invoice date — not a DOB, SKIP
• "Date of Birth: 03/15/1990" — DOB, REDACT

14 PII types detected: names, SSNs, DOB, medical record numbers, phone, email, address, credit cards, passport, driver's license, bank accounts, IBANs, IPs, URLs.

Use Cases

• Clinical Data Extraction — Pull diagnoses, medications, vitals, and lab results from patient records into your EHR or data warehouse
• Lab Report Processing — Extract test names, values, reference ranges, and abnormal flags from lab reports
• Prescription Digitization — Convert handwritten or printed prescriptions into structured medication data
• Insurance Claims — Extract procedure codes, diagnosis codes, and patient info for claims processing
• Medical Research — De-identify patient records for research datasets while preserving clinical data
• Discharge Summary Processing — Extract follow-up instructions, medications, and diagnoses from discharge paperwork
• Prior Authorization — Pull relevant clinical data to auto-fill prior auth forms

Tips for Medical Documents

• Use ICD-10/CPT code descriptions — Adding "ICD-10 diagnosis code if present" in the schema description helps the model recognize code formats
• Specify units — "Temperature in Fahrenheit" or "Weight with unit (lbs or kg)" reduces ambiguity
• Create blueprints for recurring form types — If you process the same lab report format repeatedly, train a blueprint at deepread.tech/dashboard/optimizer for 20-30% improvement
• Always redact before sharing — Use the PII redaction endpoint before sending documents to LLMs, external systems, or non-clinical staff
