# CLAUDE.md This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository. ## Project Overview NHS High-Cost Drug Patient Pathway Analysis Tool - a web-based application that analyzes secondary care patient treatment pathways. It processes clinical activity data to visualize hierarchical treatment patterns as interactive Plotly icicle charts. **Key Features:** - **Dual chart types**: Directory-based (Trust → Directory → Drug → Pathway) and Indication-based (Trust → GP Diagnosis → Drug → Pathway) views with toggle - **Pre-computed pathway architecture**: Treatment pathways pre-processed and stored in SQLite for instant filtering - **GP diagnosis matching**: Patient indications matched from GP records using SNOMED cluster codes queried directly from Snowflake (~93% match rate) - Data pipeline: Snowflake → pre-computed SQLite pathway nodes (CSV/Parquet file loading retained for legacy compatibility) - Interactive browser-based UI using Reflex framework - 6 pre-defined date filter combinations × 2 chart types = 12 pre-computed datasets with sub-50ms response times ## Running the Application ```bash # Install dependencies pip install -r requirements.txt # OR with uv uv sync # Initialize/migrate the database (creates pathway tables) python -m data_processing.migrate # Refresh pathway data from Snowflake (requires SSO auth) python -m cli.refresh_pathways # Run the Reflex web application reflex run ``` The application requires Python 3.10+ and runs on http://localhost:3000 by default. ### CLI Commands **Refresh Pathway Data:** ```bash # Full refresh — both chart types (directory + indication), all date filters python -m cli.refresh_pathways --chart-type all # Directory charts only (faster, skips GP diagnosis lookup) python -m cli.refresh_pathways --chart-type directory # Indication charts only python -m cli.refresh_pathways --chart-type indication # Dry run (test without database changes) python -m cli.refresh_pathways --chart-type all --dry-run -v # Custom minimum patient threshold python -m cli.refresh_pathways --minimum-patients 10 # Help python -m cli.refresh_pathways --help ``` The `--chart-type` argument controls which pathway types are processed: - `all` (default) — generates both directory and indication charts (~15 minutes) - `directory` — directory-based charts only (~5 minutes) - `indication` — indication-based charts only (~12 minutes, includes GP lookup) The refresh command: 1. Fetches activity data from Snowflake (656K+ records, ~7 seconds) 2. Applies UPID, drug name, and directory transformations (~6 minutes) 3. For indication charts: queries GP records via SNOMED clusters (~9 minutes for 37K patients) 4. Processes 6 date filter combinations × selected chart types 5. Inserts pathway nodes to SQLite for fast Reflex filtering ## Architecture ### Package Structure ``` . ├── core/ # Core configuration and models │ ├── config.py # PathConfig dataclass for file paths │ ├── models.py # AnalysisFilters dataclass │ └── logging_config.py # Structured logging setup │ ├── cli/ # Command-line interface tools │ ├── __init__.py │ └── refresh_pathways.py # CLI to refresh pre-computed pathway data │ ├── data_processing/ # Data layer │ ├── database.py # SQLite connection management │ ├── schema.py # Database schema (reference + pathway tables) │ ├── pathway_pipeline.py # Pathway processing pipeline (Snowflake → SQLite) │ ├── loader.py # FileDataLoader for CSV/Parquet files │ ├── reference_data.py # Reference data migration │ ├── snowflake_connector.py # Snowflake integration │ ├── cache.py # Query result caching │ ├── data_source.py # Data source fallback chain (Snowflake/file) │ └── diagnosis_lookup.py # GP diagnosis lookup and drug-indication mapping │ ├── analysis/ # Analysis pipeline │ ├── pathway_analyzer.py # prepare_data, calculate_statistics, build_hierarchy │ └── statistics.py # Statistical calculation functions │ ├── visualization/ # Chart generation │ └── plotly_generator.py # create_icicle_figure, save_figure_html │ ├── pathways_app/ # Reflex web application │ ├── pathways_app.py # State class and page components │ └── components/ # Layout and navigation components │ ├── tools/ # Legacy modules │ ├── dashboard_gui.py # Original analysis engine (being refactored) │ └── data.py # Data transformations (UPID, drug names, directory) │ ├── config/ # Configuration files │ └── snowflake.toml # Snowflake connection settings │ ├── data/ # Reference data and database │ ├── pathways.db # SQLite database (includes pathway_nodes) │ └── *.csv # Reference data files │ └── tests/ # Test suite ├── conftest.py # Pytest fixtures └── test_*.py # Test modules ``` ### Pathway Data Architecture The application uses a pre-computed pathway architecture for performance: **Architecture:** `Snowflake → Pathway Processing → SQLite (pre-computed) → Reflex (filter & view)` **Key Benefits:** - **Performance**: Pathway calculation done once during data refresh, not on every filter change - **Simplicity**: Reflex filters pre-computed data with simple SQL WHERE clauses - **Full Pathways**: Sequential treatment pathways (drug_0 → drug_1 → drug_2...) with statistics **Chart Types:** | Type | Hierarchy | Level 2 Source | |------|-----------|----------------| | `directory` | Trust → Directory → Drug → Pathway | Assigned directorate (5-level fallback) | | `indication` | Trust → GP Diagnosis → Drug → Pathway | SNOMED cluster Search_Term from GP records | For indication charts, ~93% of patients are matched to a GP diagnosis (Search_Term). Unmatched patients use their directorate as a fallback label (e.g., "RHEUMATOLOGY (no GP dx)"). **Date Filter Combinations:** | ID | Initiated | Last Seen | Default | |----|-----------|-----------|---------| | `all_6mo` | All years | Last 6 months | Yes | | `all_12mo` | All years | Last 12 months | No | | `1yr_6mo` | Last 1 year | Last 6 months | No | | `1yr_12mo` | Last 1 year | Last 12 months | No | | `2yr_6mo` | Last 2 years | Last 6 months | No | | `2yr_12mo` | Last 2 years | Last 12 months | No | Total pre-computed datasets: 6 date filters × 2 chart types = 12 datasets (~3,600 pathway nodes). **Pathway Node Structure:** Each node in `pathway_nodes` contains: - Routing: `chart_type` ("directory" or "indication"), `date_filter_id` - Hierarchy: `parents`, `ids`, `labels`, `level` (0=Root, 1=Trust, 2=Directory/Indication, 3=Drug, 4+=Pathway) - Counts: `value` (patient count) - Costs: `cost`, `costpp`, `cost_pp_pa` (per patient per annum) - Dates: `first_seen`, `last_seen`, `first_seen_parent`, `last_seen_parent` - Statistics: `average_spacing`, `average_administered`, `avg_days` - Denormalized: `trust_name`, `directory`, `drug_sequence` (for efficient filtering) - Unique constraint: `UNIQUE(date_filter_id, chart_type, ids)` ### Core Module (`core/`) - **PathConfig** - Dataclass encapsulating all file paths, with `validate()` method - **AnalysisFilters** - Dataclass for filter state (dates, drugs, trusts, directories) - **logging_config** - Structured logging with file and console output ### CLI Module (`cli/`) - **refresh_pathways.py** - Command-line tool to refresh pre-computed pathway data: - `refresh_pathways()` - Main function orchestrating the full pipeline - `insert_pathway_records()` - SQLite insertion with parameterized queries - `log_refresh_start/complete/failed()` - Refresh tracking in `pathway_refresh_log` - `get_default_filters()` - Load trusts/drugs/directories from CSV files ### Data Processing Module (`data_processing/`) **Database Management:** - `DatabaseManager` - SQLite connection pooling and transaction management - **Reference Tables**: `ref_drug_names`, `ref_organizations`, `ref_directories`, `ref_drug_directory_map`, `ref_drug_indication_clusters` - **Pathway Tables**: `pathway_date_filters`, `pathway_nodes`, `pathway_refresh_log` **Pathway Pipeline (`pathway_pipeline.py`):** - `DateFilterConfig` - Dataclass for date filter configuration - `DATE_FILTER_CONFIGS` - All 6 pre-defined date combinations - `compute_date_ranges(config, max_date)` - Computes actual ISO dates from config - `fetch_and_transform_data()` - Snowflake fetch + UPID/drug/directory transformations - Directory chart functions: - `process_pathway_for_date_filter()` - Processes single date filter using `generate_icicle_chart()` - `extract_denormalized_fields()` - Parses `ids` column to extract trust, directory, drug_sequence - Indication chart functions: - `process_indication_pathway_for_date_filter()` - Processes single date filter using `generate_icicle_chart_indication()` - `extract_indication_fields()` - Parses `ids` for indication charts (trust, search_term, drug_sequence) - Shared functions: - `convert_to_records(ice_df, chart_type)` - Converts ice_df to list of dicts with `chart_type` column - `process_all_date_filters()` - Convenience function to process all 6 filters **Data Loaders:** - `FileDataLoader` - Loads from CSV/Parquet files (used by legacy pipeline, not by Reflex app) - Factory function `get_loader()` creates a `FileDataLoader` **Snowflake Integration:** - SSO authentication via `externalbrowser` authenticator - `fetch_activity_data(start_date, end_date, provider_codes)` method - Query caching with TTL-based invalidation **GP Diagnosis Lookup (`diagnosis_lookup.py`):** - `CLUSTER_MAPPING_SQL` - Embedded SQL constant with ~148 Search_Term → Cluster_ID mappings plus explicit SNOMED codes - `get_patient_indication_groups(patient_pseudonyms)` - Batch queries Snowflake to match patients to GP diagnoses: - Embeds cluster mapping as CTE, joins with `PrimaryCareClinicalCoding` - Uses `PseudoNHSNoLinked` (not PersonKey) to match `PatientPseudonym` in GP records - Returns most recent match per patient via `QUALIFY ROW_NUMBER()` - Batches 500 patients per query, returns DataFrame with PatientPseudonym, Search_Term, EventDateTime - `patient_has_indication(patient_pseudonym, cluster_ids)` - Single-patient GP record check (legacy) - `validate_indication(patient_pseudonym, drug_name)` - Full validation result with source tracking (legacy) ### Analysis Module (`analysis/`) Refactored from the original 267-line `generate_graph()` function: - **prepare_data()** - Filter DataFrame by date range, trusts, drugs, directories (copies df to prevent mutation) - **calculate_statistics()** - Compute frequency, cost, duration statistics - **build_hierarchy()** - Create Trust → Directory → Drug → Pathway structure - **prepare_chart_data()** - Format data for Plotly icicle chart - **generate_icicle_chart_indication(df, indication_df, ...)** - Build indication-based hierarchy using Search_Term instead of Directory. Takes an `indication_df` (UPID → Search_Term mapping) alongside the main activity DataFrame. ### Visualization Module (`visualization/`) - **create_icicle_figure()** - Generate Plotly icicle chart figure - **save_figure_html()** - Save interactive HTML file - **open_figure_in_browser()** - Open chart in default browser ### Reflex Application (`pathways_app/`) The `AppState` class manages all application state: - **Chart type**: `selected_chart_type` ("directory" or "indication"), toggled via `set_chart_type()` - **Computed vars**: `chart_hierarchy_label` (dynamic "Trust → Directorate → ..." or "Trust → Indication → ..."), `chart_type_label` - Filter variables: dates, drugs, trusts, directories - Reference data: available options loaded from pathway_nodes and CSV files - Analysis state: running flag, status messages, chart data - `load_data()` sources available drugs/directorates from `pathway_nodes` and `total_records` from `pathway_refresh_log.source_row_count` **Chart Type Toggle** (`chart_type_toggle()` component): - Segmented control with "By Directory" and "By Indication" pill buttons - Placed first in the filter strip before date filters - Switching reloads pathway data from SQLite filtered by `chart_type` - Note: Directory filter only applies to directory charts (indication charts store Search_Terms in the directory column) ### Legacy Modules (`tools/`) Still used during transition: - **tools/data.py** - Data transformation functions: - `patient_id()` - Creates UPID = Provider Code (first 3 chars) + PersonKey - `drug_names()` - Standardizes via drugnames.csv lookup - `department_identification()` - 5-level fallback chain for directory assignment - **tools/dashboard_gui.py** - Original analysis engine (being replaced by `analysis/` module) ### Data Flow **Pre-Computed Pathway Architecture (Current):** ``` [CLI: python -m cli.refresh_pathways --chart-type all] Snowflake Data Warehouse │ ▼ (fetch_and_transform_data) ┌──────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ Data Transformations (tools/data.py) │ │ → patient_id() creates UPID │ │ → drug_names() standardizes names │ │ → department_identification() → Dir │ └──────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ ├─── Directory Charts ──────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ ┌──────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ For each of 6 date filter combos: │ │ │ │ → generate_icicle_chart() │ │ │ │ → extract_denormalized_fields() │ │ │ │ → convert_to_records("directory") │ │ │ └──────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ │ │ ├─── Indication Charts ─────────────────────────────────────┤ │ │ │ ┌──────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ GP Diagnosis Lookup (diagnosis_lookup.py)│ │ │ │ → Extract PseudoNHSNoLinked from HCD │ │ │ │ → get_patient_indication_groups() │ │ │ │ (SNOMED cluster CTE + GP records) │ │ │ │ → Build indication_df: UPID → Search │ │ │ │ Term (matched) or Directorate (no GP)│ │ │ └──────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ │ │ │ │ ▼ │ │ ┌──────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ For each of 6 date filter combos: │ │ │ │ → generate_icicle_chart_indication() │ │ │ │ → extract_indication_fields() │ │ │ │ → convert_to_records("indication") │ │ │ └──────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ │ │ └───────────────────────┬───────────────────────────────────┘ │ ▼ (insert_pathway_records) ┌──────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ SQLite: pathway_nodes table │ │ → ~3,600 nodes across 12 datasets │ │ → UNIQUE(date_filter_id, chart_type, │ │ ids) prevents cross-type overwrites │ │ → Indexed for fast filtering │ └──────────────────────────────────────────┘ [Reflex App: reflex run] ┌──────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ Chart Type Toggle (segmented control) │ │ → "By Directory" | "By Indication" │ │ → Triggers set_chart_type() handler │ └──────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ ▼ ┌──────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ AppState.load_pathway_data() │ │ → Query pathway_nodes WHERE │ │ date_filter AND chart_type │ │ → Apply drug/directory filters │ │ → recalculate_parent_totals() │ └──────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ ▼ ┌──────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ AppState.icicle_figure │ │ → Plotly icicle chart │ │ → 10-field customdata structure │ │ → Full hover/text templates │ └──────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ ▼ ┌──────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ Reflex UI (rx.plotly component) │ │ → <50ms filter response time │ │ → Treatment statistics in tooltips │ │ → Dynamic hierarchy label updates │ └──────────────────────────────────────────┘ ``` ### Reference Data Files (`data/`) | File | Purpose | |------|---------| | `include.csv` | Drug filter list with default selections (Include=1) | | `defaultTrusts.csv` | NHS Trust list for filter | | `directory_list.csv` | Medical specialties/directories | | `drugnames.csv` | Drug name standardization mapping | | `org_codes.csv` | Provider code to organization name mapping | | `drug_directory_list.csv` | Valid drug-to-directory mappings (pipe-separated) | | `treatment_function_codes.csv` | NHS treatment function code mappings | | `drug_indication_clusters.csv` | Drug to SNOMED cluster mappings | | `ta-recommendations.xlsx` | NICE TA recommendations | | `pathways.db` | SQLite database (~3.5 MB: reference tables + pathway nodes) | ### Key Patterns **Department Identification Fallback Chain:** The `department_identification()` function has 5 levels of fallback: 1. **SINGLE_VALID_DIR** - Drug has only one valid directory 2. **EXTRACTED** - Extracted from Additional Detail/Description fields 3. **CALCULATED_MOST_FREQ** - Most frequent valid directory for UPID/Drug 4. **UPID_INFERENCE** - Inferred from other records with same UPID 5. **UNDEFINED** - No directory could be determined **Indication Lookup Workflow (for indication charts):** 1. Extract unique `PseudoNHSNoLinked` values from HCD activity data 2. Query Snowflake in batches of 500 patients: - Embed `CLUSTER_MAPPING_SQL` (~148 Search_Term → Cluster_ID mappings) as CTE - Join `ClinicalCodingClusterSnomedCodes` to get SNOMED codes per cluster - Join `PrimaryCareClinicalCoding` on `PatientPseudonym` = `PseudoNHSNoLinked` - Use `QUALIFY ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY PatientPseudonym ORDER BY EventDateTime DESC) = 1` for most recent match 3. Build `indication_df` mapping UPID → Search_Term (matched) or Directorate + " (no GP dx)" (unmatched) 4. Pass to `generate_icicle_chart_indication()` for pathway hierarchy building **Data Source Fallback Chain** (for raw data loading, not used by Reflex app): 1. Query cache for recent results 2. Attempt Snowflake connection 3. Fall back to CSV/Parquet files ## Database Schema (~3.5 MB) ### Reference Tables - `ref_drug_names` - Drug name standardization - `ref_organizations` - Provider code to name mapping - `ref_directories` - Valid directory names - `ref_drug_directory_map` - Valid drug-directory pairs - `ref_drug_indication_clusters` - Drug to SNOMED cluster mapping ### Pathway Tables - `pathway_date_filters` - 6 pre-defined date filter combinations - Columns: `id`, `initiated`, `last_seen`, `is_default`, `description` - Auto-populated via migration - `pathway_nodes` - Pre-computed pathway hierarchy nodes (~3,600 rows for 12 datasets) - Routing: `chart_type` ("directory" or "indication"), `date_filter_id` - Hierarchy: `parents`, `ids`, `labels`, `level` - Metrics: `value`, `cost`, `costpp`, `cost_pp_pa`, `colour` - Dates: `first_seen`, `last_seen`, `first_seen_parent`, `last_seen_parent` - Statistics: `average_spacing`, `average_administered`, `avg_days` - Denormalized: `trust_name`, `directory`, `drug_sequence` - Foreign key: `date_filter_id` → `pathway_date_filters.id` - Unique constraint: `UNIQUE(date_filter_id, chart_type, ids)` — critical for INSERT OR REPLACE correctness - Indexed for: date_filter_id, chart_type, trust_name, directory, level - `pathway_refresh_log` - Tracks data refresh status - Columns: `refresh_id`, `started_at`, `completed_at`, `status`, `records_processed`, `error_message`, `source_row_count` ## Input Data Requirements The input data (CSV/Parquet) must contain columns including: - `Provider Code`, `PersonKey` - Used to create UPID - `PseudoNHSNoLinked` - NHS pseudonym for GP record matching (indication charts) - `Drug Name`, `Intervention Date`, `Price Actual` - `OrganisationName` - Various `Additional Detail/Description` columns for directory extraction - `Treatment Function Code` ## Output Interactive Plotly icicle chart with toggleable views: - **Directory view**: Trust → Directorate → Drug → Patient Pathway - **Indication view**: Trust → GP Diagnosis (Search_Term) → Drug → Patient Pathway - Patient counts and percentages at each hierarchy level - Total and average costs - Treatment duration and dosing frequency information - Color gradient based on patient volume ## Testing ```bash # Run all tests with coverage python -m pytest tests/ -v --cov=core --cov=analysis # Run specific test file python -m pytest tests/test_config.py -v # Run specific test class python -m pytest tests/test_data_transformations.py::TestPatientId -v ``` Test coverage includes: - PathConfig validation (23 tests) - AnalysisFilters validation (26 tests) - Data transformation functions (23 tests) - Directory assignment logic (19 tests) ## Configuration ### Snowflake Connection (`config/snowflake.toml`) ```toml [snowflake] account = "your-account" database = "DATA_HUB" schema = "CDM" warehouse = "your-warehouse" authenticator = "externalbrowser" # Required for NHS SSO ``` ### Logging Logs are written to `logs/` directory with structured format. Configure via `core/logging_config.py`. ## Breaking Changes from Original App The pre-computed pathway architecture introduces these changes: ### Date Filters - **Old**: Date pickers for arbitrary `start_date` and `end_date` - **New**: Two dropdowns: - "Treatment Initiated": All years, Last 2 years, Last 1 year - "Last Seen": Last 6 months, Last 12 months - **Reason**: Pre-computed pathways require fixed date combinations for performance ### Data Refresh - **Old**: Real-time pathway calculation on each filter change - **New**: Pre-computed pathways stored in SQLite, refreshed via CLI command - **Impact**: Data is as fresh as the last `python -m cli.refresh_pathways` run - **Benefit**: Sub-50ms filter response time vs multi-minute calculations ### State Variables - **Removed**: `start_date`, `end_date`, `set_start_date()`, `set_end_date()` - **Added**: `selected_initiated`, `selected_last_seen`, `date_filter_id` - **Added**: `selected_chart_type` ("directory" or "indication"), `chart_type_options` - **Added**: `set_chart_type()` - switches chart type and reloads data - **Added**: `chart_hierarchy_label`, `chart_type_label` - computed vars for dynamic UI text - **Added**: `load_pathway_data()` - queries pre-computed `pathway_nodes` filtered by `date_filter_id` AND `chart_type` - **Added**: `recalculate_parent_totals()` - adjusts hierarchy after filtering ### Chart Type Toggle - **New**: Segmented control ("By Directory" | "By Indication") in filter strip - **Added**: `selected_chart_type` state variable, `set_chart_type()` handler - **Added**: Dynamic hierarchy label ("Trust → Directorate → ..." or "Trust → Indication → ...") - **Note**: Directory filter only applies to directory charts; for indication charts the `directory` column stores Search_Terms ### Icicle Chart - **Enhanced**: Now includes full 10-field customdata structure - **Added**: Treatment statistics (average_spacing, cost_pp_pa) in hover tooltips - **Added**: First/last seen dates for drug nodes - **Added**: Indication chart uses `generate_icicle_chart_indication()` with Search_Term hierarchy ## Development ### Adding New Analysis Features 1. Add statistical functions to `analysis/statistics.py` 2. Integrate into pipeline in `analysis/pathway_analyzer.py` 3. Update visualization in `visualization/plotly_generator.py` ### Adding New Reference Data 1. Add CSV file to `data/` directory 2. Define schema in `data_processing/schema.py` 3.
