How to Optimize eCW for Value-Based Care
The eClinicalWorks (eCW) system assists healthcare organizations by streamlining operations and providing actionable insights for improved compliance. Sparker Teknology offers tailored eCW consulting services, including an eCW report writer, to help improve efficiency and convert rules into applicable workflows and application requirements. Here is more information on how to optimize eCW for value-based care:
Controlling Data Relevancy
eCW software utilizes reporting modules and other tools to gather clinical and operational data, and it supports efficient decision-making for medical practices. Operational, billing, productivity, and other types of reports include data analysis that shows how your practice is run. Practices are able to optimize the software by customizing data filters and selecting specific categories when choosing reports for practice goals. These can include service locations, provider date ranges, billing performance, and patient visit delays.
Identifying what your clinic’s reporting goals are makes it easier to choose filters. Data analysis in eCW allows identification of trends and patterns, such as appointment volume and billing performance, which transforms data into metrics. Choosing filters aligned with specific goals creates more relevant reports; this allows the practice to focus on how they are performing on specific objectives. Our team offers an eCW report writer to assist you with identifying compliance requirements and objectives.
Confirming Data Accuracy
Reports offer different types of metrics for a practice, such as scheduling gaps. This provides information as to how your practice is performing on a daily basis. A report writer is able to confirm report accuracy by:
- Validating outputs against known information. Benchmarks include billing totals and appointment numbers.
- Confirming date logic and sources. We build SQL-driven datasets and validate data with ODBC and SQL sources.
- Documenting report criteria and definitions. This helps make sure that identical requests produce the same answer.
Having accurate data for the reports allows your practice to correctly identify potential issues, such as workplace inefficiencies, performance gaps, compliance risks, or billing problems. Verified data informs decision-making for operational changes, and it helps prevent misaligned results. Options include changing scheduling templates and examining communication strategies between the provider and patient. Taking steps to repair problems allows you to provide patient-based care that addresses needs and prevents bottlenecks.
Auditing Reports
Identifying existing issues within a report allows the writer to find system problems. Auditing reports help identify logic or filtering problems, such as unstandardized filters, making it easier to adjust the report or the framework if needed. Standardizing filters and data logic can help prevent inaccurate results. Our report writers are able to rebuild or repair reports as needed; this helps prevent you from having to spend time identifying the problem and reworking the report.
