New Skin
Condition Logic Flags
You may notice some new logic flags
after your next batch submission. We have just added a collection of logic flags
regarding skin issues that will affect customers who use both CareWatch®
and RiskWatch®.
These logic flags address two types of situations:
when a skin issue has been reported in the MDS for a resident but no occurrence
record is found for it in RiskWatch®; and
conversely, when a skin occurrence exists in RiskWatch®
but it is not reflected in the MDS assessment for the resident. To see the
text of the logic flags in full, please click the above link.
Kentucky and Texas State Watch Pages
We are pleased to announce that the
development of the Kentucky and Texas State Watch pages is complete
and that they have been added to the system. These pages are
only available to organizations and facilities in each of these
respective states. |
|
The pages contain a series of payment
analysis reports that assist in managing CMI values, payer source
information, and RUG designations. Please click the link above
to see the complete listing of the State menu analyses for Kentucky
and Texas.
More for Washington Watch - CareWatch®
Additional payment
analysis links have been added to the Washington State Watch page. These include:
| CMI Watch |
Census By Payer |
| CMI Interval Comparison |
CMI Trend Chart |
| Medicaid RUG Watch |
Non-Medicaid RUG Watch |
These pages operate the same as the initial links that were added
to the Washington state page last month. They are accessible
only to facilities and organizations in the state of Washington and
users with Operations and/or Analysis permissions in CareWatch®
can view them. They are available at all levels: the
organization, regional, and facility, depending on your individual
user permissions.
For assistance using these reports, please click the "Help This
Page" link located in the gold navigation menu to the left of the
screen. If you experience any difficulties with the pages,
please report them promptly to us at 937.767.1885.
Note-Worthy - CareWatch®
- An occasional error which showed a double log in page when
you timed out and then re-logged in has been corrected.
- We have modified the MDS Details page slightly so that if
you receive a "W1" logic flag stating that there is a problem
with the National Provider ID, you will now see this data on the
page and be able to more easily determine what needs to be
corrected.
- Date validation errors in the Medicare Watch pages have been
corrected.
- A bug fix on the Illinois Watch, "What If Analysis" page
which falsely gave a $50 add-on has been implemented.
- An issue with the default date for the Illinois County Point
in Time report has been corrected. Previously, the date
would sometimes default to a date in the future.
- We have implemented changes for the drill through links on
the Resident Alerts and Sentinel Events section of the Home Page
which have improved the speed of accessing the drill through
data.
- A printer friendly link has been added to the QI/QM Watch
and QI/QM Summary pages.
- A bug has been corrected in both CareWatch® and
RiskWatch® which caused periodic time outs to occur
during the "Move Resident" process.
Note-Worthy - RiskWatch®
- A warning has been added that will pop up if you enter an
occurrence date that is prior to the date settings you have set in
your preferences. This alerts you to the fact that if you
continue to add the entry using that date, the occurrence may not
show in some places such as on the Investigate menu.
- An option of
"None" has been added to the drop down box for Wound MD Specialist
on the Skin Details Report. If nothing is selected from the
drop down box, the system will represent that the same as "None."
This is not a required field.
- Improvements have been made to the
speed with which the Physician list loads for those who have
permissions to view the Admin page.
- The "Notify State Agency"
field has been removed from the General page on the Report Entry
menu and is now located only on the Alleged Abuse Details page.
With the exception of one organization (per their request), this is
no longer a required field.
- A printer friendly link was added to
the drill through pages from the RiskWatch
®
Home Page.A bug was corrected that
caused the wrong number of items to appear for certain links in the
drill throughs as compared to the Home Page. |
