1 Using MEDITECH Data to Drive Clinical Decision Support Co-presenters: Stephania Fregeau Jamie Gerardo 2015 International MUSE Conference

2 AGENDA Technologies used Objectives Surgical Scorecard reports Application functionality and how it applies to the report data Tips on setup Demo of Scorecard and related reports Overview of the MEDITECH data repository Briefly cover how we are gathering data for our reports Tables used Surgical Care Improvement Project Going from paper to an electronic dashboard Measure requirements Demo

3 TECHNOLOGIES USED MEDITECH Data Repository (or other technologies such as Open Gate from Blue Elm) Microsoft SQL Server SQL Server Management Studio Stored Procedures Reporting Services (SSRS) Report Manager Visual Studio (Business Intelligence Development Studio)

4 OBJECTIVES After this presentation, you will be able: To outline the elements on the Surgical Services Scorecard To apply a few tips on using the Meditech Operating Room Management module To describe how NMC is using the electronic SCIP Dashboard to drive clinical decision support To know the various reporting options available To state Meditech tables which can be used to create reports

5 NORTHWESTERN MEDICAL CENTER St. Albans, Vermont

6 NORTHWESTERN MEDICAL CENTER ST. ALBANS, VERMONT 70 bed hospital NMC staff have won 5 consecutive national Avatar awards for Overall Patient Satisfaction & Exceeding Patient Expectations. HIMSS Stage 6 achieved in 2014 MEDITECH 6.07 PP5d Per Year, NMC has: 1,900 inpatients 28,000 emergency room patients 400 babies born Performs 6,000 surgical and outpatient procedures

7 NMC s MISSION IS TO PROVIDE EXCEPTIONAL HEALTHCARE FOR OUR COMMUNIT Y 5 Star Caring Model

12 ELECTRONIC VERSION SURGEON COMPARISON

13 FIRST THINGS FIRST Define the measure and target Why is the measure important? Where does the documentation occur? How do I query the data in the DR and which tables do I use?

14 FIRST CASE ON TIME STARTS Definition A first case on time start occurs when the first patient of the day arrives in OR room within 5 minutes of scheduled start time Why? First case on time starts will improve patient satisfaction, productivity and staff satisfaction

15 FIRST CASE ON TIME STARTS Documentation OR Scheduler Desktop: report looks to first scheduled case of the day

20 JANUARY MAY 2015 PIE CHART

21 FIRST CASE ON TIME STARTS

22 FIRST CASE ON TIME STARTS Notes/Tips Recommend using AppointmentDateTime SchAppointments table Use determine the first case Example Use for the calculation to determine if the case started on time (Example: DATEDIFF(minute, AppointmentDateTime, IntoOR) ) Define the timeframe You ll want to be specific on what counts as on time What if the surgery starts early? Within 5 minutes?

23 TURNOVER TIME Definition Time from prior patient out of room to succeeding patient in room time Why? Good turnover time helps maintain surgeon, anesthesia, staff and patient satisfaction Documentation Statistic driven by patient into & out of room times documented by the Circulator in the Operative Record.

24 TURNOVER TIME Staff & Physician Involvement To be efficient at operating room turnover, every player needs TO KNOW THEIR JOB & DO IT!

25 SET UP/CLEAN UP TIMES FROM PROCEDURE LEVEL ORM>Dictionaries>Schedule>Procedures>Proc/Resources

26 PROCEDURE DICTIONARY PURGE & PREFERENCE CARDS

27 TURNOVER TIME Notes/Tips Turnover time can be calculated based on the surgeon only (as we do here) or on the surgeon and the room. Example You ll want to filter out cases before or after a certain time of day as in example. From a reporting stand point this is fairly straight forward.

28 SCHEDULING ACCURACY Definition The percentage of all cases with an accurate estimate of case duration. A case is considered accurate when the estimated case duration is within 15 minutes of the actual case duration (time patient in room to out of room). Why? Accuracy of estimated case duration is essential in managing block time, productivity and staffing needs within Surgical Services.

29 SCHEDULING ACCURACY Documentation 1) Determined at the Procedure Level ORM>Dictionaries>Schedule>Procedures> Proc/Resources

30 SCHEDULING ACCURACY Restricted Routines 2) Restricted Routine: average case duration (surgeon specific) once the defined number of cases has been reached ORM>Dictionaries>Customer Defined Parameters>Parameter s

31 SCHEDULING ACCURACY Procedure vs Scheduling Restricted Routine Determined in OR Customer Defined Time Headers Procedure Length (Surgeon) Scheduling Length (Schedule): defaults into duration while booking the case when the defined number of cases has been reached ORM>System Mgmt>View OR Customer Defined Time Headers> Billing/Reports

32 SCHEDULING ACCURACY Restricted Routines 3) Run Restricted Routines directly from OR Scheduler Desktop while booking the case or thru Restricted Routines ORM>Restricted Routines>Default Scheduling Length

33 RESTRICTED ROUTINES FROM OR SCHEDULER DESKTOP

34 SCHEDULING ACCURACY Notes/Tips Estimated Time - There are many places where you can find the estimated time for surgical cases. SchAppointmentOrOperations is the correct table if you want only time In and Out of OR. - SUM(Duration) Actual Time You ll calculate this time. SchPatTimesOp contains custom defined dates in ORM. Op1DateTime AS IntoOR Op2DateTime AS SurgeryStart Op3DateTime AS Incision Op4DateTime AS Closed Op5DateTime AS SurgeryStop Op6DateTime AS OutofRoom

35 BLOCK UTILIZATION Definition Percentage of block time assigned to a surgeon (not released) that is used by the surgeon; includes turnover time Why? Helps determine staffing needs and patterns for nursing, Central Sterile and Anesthesia Reported to Surgical Council quarterly who make recommendations to Surgeons

36 BLOCK UTILIZATION Documentation ORM>Dictionaries>Schedules>Operating Rooms *Do not delete entries as this will affect the Scorecards past data. Use the from date & thru date fields.

37 BLOCK UTILIZATION

38 DAILY BLOCK UTILIZATION

39 BLOCK UTILIZATION Notes / Tips Reporting on Block Utilization is challenging!!! Most important pieces to get right Surgeon Profile Process for releasing a block Let s add patience and perseverance A good process for keeping profiles up to date A potential gotcha in MEDITECH on released blocks
