Abstract
Although medical language processing (MLP) has achieved some success, the a ctual use and dissemination of data extracted from free text by MLP systems is still very limited. We claim that the adoption of an 'enriched-document ' paradigm (or 'document-centered' view) can help to address this issue, We present this paradigm and explain how it can be implemented, then discuss its expected benefits both for end-users and MLP researchers.
