Use Case 4: 

The corrections-specific industry that is our care setting did not see direct correlation with this use case and we were unable to identify participating partners to complete this study. 

 

Although functionality exists for Record and Export, Application Access and is available in production environments, we were not able to find willing participants.

This prevented NaphCare from being able to document and measure the success of this measure in a real-world use case.  To meet testing requirements, testing was performed in the staging environment which mirrors production.

 

Summary of Testing Methods and Key Findings

It was NaphCare’s intent to use TechCare’s Reporting/Logging features to examine functionality performed in the system and the success/failure with the tested measures within each use case defined.  This would, in turn:

·       Demonstrate real world interoperability and conformance to criterion requirements

·       Include patient care scenario and use case focused testing

Specifically, NaphCare planned to use the following data sources to collect and confirm testing approaches:

·       TechCare Application Logging reflecting end user actions in the system

·       TechCare Interface Logging reflecting automated action within the system

·       Interface Partner Results (i.e., partner Hospitals to validate information requested/received)

·       End-User Sample Sets (i.e., subset of patients meeting criteria for information transfer)

Use Case #1: Care Coordination and Direct Project

o   § 170.315(b)(1) Transitions of care

o   § 170.315(h)(1) Direct Project

Use Case #2: Data Export

o   § 170.315(b)(6) Data Export

Use Case #3: CQM

o   § 170.315(c)(1) Record and Export

Use Case #4: Application Programming Interfaces (APIs)

o   § 170.315(g)(7) Application Access— Patient Selection

o   § 170.315(g)(9) Application Access— All Data Request

o   § 170.315(g)(10) Standardized Request for patient and population services

 

Care Setting

The TechCare EHR product is deployed to correctional healthcare settings within county, state, and federal correctional facilities. These are the only care settings where TechCare EHR is utilized, and partners in this industry would represent testing subjects.

Metrics and Outcomes

Use Case 1: Care Coordination and Direct Project:

·       Criterion §170.315(b)(1) Transitions of Care

·       Criterion §170.315(h)(1) Direct Project

Measurement/

Metric

 

 

This use case is associated with two different criteria and tracking two different metrics.  It will be used to track and count how many C-CDAs are created successfully, and then sent and received via Direct Project connecting to a HISP for successful transmission.

Expected

Outcome(s)

 

 

·       95% of patients seen for a Telehealth encounter by a specialty care provider had a C-CDA created.

·       66% of C-CDAs created are sent electronically to the Telehealth Care provider electronically.

·       66% of patients receive a C-CDAs from Telehealth Care provider electronically upon completion of the scheduled Telehealth event.

Outcomes

 

 

No testing performed

Challenges

Encountered (if Applicable)

 

 

N/A

 

Use Case 2: Data Export

·       Criterion §170.315(b)(6) Data Export

Measurement/

Metric

 

 

This use case is tracking a complete batch export comparing the number of actual patients with a health information record (within the EHR system) to the number of electronically exported C-CDAs created using the EHR export functionality.  The planned testing scenario was exporting patient C-CDAs from TechCare to another EHR vendor. 

Expected

Outcome(s)

 

100% of eligible C-CDAs are exported in bulk.

Outcomes

 

No testing performed

 Challenges

Encountered (if Applicable) 

N/A

 

Use Case 3: CQM

·       Criterion §170.315(c)(1) Record and Export

Measurement/

Metric 

 

This use case tracks the number of CQM data that is exported and compares it to the number of data elements the users enter.  This test focus is primarily to determine whether the user is correctly entering the required data.  Test results not meeting the expected outcome indicate that user training is required.

Expected

Outcome(s)

 

35% of exported CQM exported will contain the required data elements.

Outcomes

 

 

No testing performed

Challenges

Encountered (if Applicable)

 

 

N/A

 

Use Case 4:  Application Programming Interfaces (API)

·       Criterion §170.315(g)(7) Application Access – Patient Selection

·       Criterion §170.315(g)(9) Application Access – All Data Request

·       Criterion §170.315(g)(10) Standardized API for patient and population services

Measurement/

Metric

 

 

This use case captures the total number of validated API request that resulted in received (intake) or generated (discharge) C-CDA records, compared with total opportunities to ingest or send useful information from a neighboring system.

Expected

Outcome(s)

 

 

25% of the patients received into a new facility will have health history transferable via electronic C-CDA.

25% of the released from a facility will be rebooked into another facility and have records requested of them.

75% of the patients will either not have been booked before, or will not be released and rebooked within the reporting period in a neighboring facility.

Outcomes

None of our participating facilities had neighboring facilities with the functionality for sending or receiving C-CDAs. Testing was performed in our staging environment which mirrors production.

 

·       Numerator: 2,421 test patients were used to request C-CDAs via API

·       Denominator: 2,421 of the C-CDAs were successfully received

·       Results: 100%

 

·       Numerator: 1,898 test patients requested records via API

·       Denominator: 1,898 of the C-CDAs were successfully sent

·       Results:  100%

Challenges

Encountered (if Applicable)

  

Due to lack of request for patient data we were unable to test transferring C-CDAs in the production environment. 

Due to lack of technology from facilities patients booked into our facilities we were unable to test receiving C-CDA’s via API in our production environment.
