For these, you need a list, a tally of the list to generate numerator and denominators, and then calculations of percentages. The report or raw data is the list you generate or the tally of the list. Most EMRs will generate a list for you which you can then tally. In the case you describe, the report you generate could be the screen shot of the total number of patients registered in EMR. That number would be equal to the numerator and as well as the denominator since you can't register patients in AC without the gender and sex demographic profiles. You can provide evidence supporting the assumption that 100% of registered patients have gender and date of birth documented by providing a screenshot of the page used to add new patients. This page clearly depicts that you must enter a gender or date of birth before being able to register a patient. You might show a screen shot of the error message that displays if you were trying to omit including these data fields.
For our practice, the pursuit hasn't been HORSEBARN. We're learning a lot and we're using MyPHTS -
www.myphts.com to facilitate our progress. We're actually earning income along the way by implementing new care services and participating in programs like BCBS Enhance Personal Healthcare program. We've designed a lean model for transforming to PCMH by using MyPHTS to enhance amazing charts.
I'm a primary care internist in St. Louis. I have used amazing charts since 2010, and I'm part of MyPHTS development team. You're invited to visit and contact us through
