8 ELECTRONIC MEDICAL RECORDS Efficient communication Enhanced care coordination Positive financial return Standardization Free text fields Scanned laboratory reports Inconsistent Documentation BENEFITS DRAWBACKS

9 ELECTRONIC MEDICAL RECORDS o Important to determine what information will need to be retrieved from EMR, while determining what information needs to be captured/documented in EMR.

10 QUALITY IN ELECTRONIC DOCUMENTATION o Development of Electronic Documentation Identify significant data routinely captured/ extracted from EMR related to Transplantation Customization for individual department/services would need to be addressed

11 QUALITY IN ELECTRONIC DOCUMENTATION EXAMPLE: Inpatient Progress/Outpatient Follow Up o Significant Transplant Data (HSCT Summary) HSCT Date Number of days pre/post Transplant Diagnosis Co-morbidities Conditioning Regimen Donor Type Graft Source Match CMV/EBV/Toxo Status

12 QUALITY IN ELECTRONIC DOCUMENTATION Inpatient Progress /Outpatient Follow Up Note o Specific Fields Query-able o Standardization/Consistency Populated into each note o Logic/Calculation (Transplant Date) Increases accuracy

13 EXAMPLES

14 EXAMPLES

15 QUALITY IN ELECTRONIC DOCUMENTATION EXAMPLE: Cell Infusion Document o Significant Data: Cell Infusion Type Cell Source Method Donor Manipulation Bag Number Cell Doses

16 EXAMPLES

17 QUALITY IN ELECTRONIC DOCUMENTATION Cell Infusion Document o Required Fields Increase compliance o Data points specific to infusion type Manipulation Options different for each Infusion type CD 34+ and CD 3+ for Allogeneic Infusions CD34+ Only for Autologous o Infusion Reaction Logic

18 EXAMPLES

19 EXAMPLES

20 EXAMPLES

21 QUALITY IN ELECTRONIC DOCUMENTATION Cell Infusion Document o Electronic Documentation use to increase data capture compliance o Reports used to confirm volumes/statistics and accuracy of data captured in database. Report 1: Complete vs Incomplete Type of Transplant Report 2: Detailed Data Query

22 EXAMPLES Report 1

23 EXAMPLES Report 2

24 QUALITY IN ELECTRONIC DOCUMENTATION Cell Infusion Document o Ways to Use Document Reports Compliance Audit Are all notes completed/signed out Statistic Report How many Autologous vs Allogeneic How many Related vs Unrelated Quality Audit How many infusion include cell dose less than 2 x10 e6 CD34+?

25 ELECTRONIC MEDICAL RECORDS In addition to the Electronic Documentation, the Electronic Medical Record can be used to extract data and support quality improvement.

26 QUALITY IN ELECTRONIC MEDICAL RECORD o Sources to Extract Data Laboratory Orders Laboratory Results Medication Orders Patient Care Orders Flowsheets

27 EXAMPLES Allogeneic Collection/Processing Order

28 EXAMPLES Allogeneic Donor Eligibility Order

29 QUALITY IN ELECTRONIC MEDICAL RECORD o Information can be extracted based on the Order Name or content of the order Example: Allogeneic Collection/Processing Order How many orders were placed? Were the orders placed 48 hours prior to Collection? Example: Allogeneic Donor Eligibility Order How many orders were placed? How many donors were Ineligible?

30 EXAMPLES Report 1 Order Name

31 QUALITY IN ELECTRONIC MEDICAL RECORD o Audit Example TOTALS Orders Received same day or After product collected: 16% (15% in 3rd Quarter) Orders Received 24 hours or more before product received: 85% Collection/Orders cancelled: 16 orders (This also includes duplicate orders) Data Breakdown Number Percentage Late (after product collected) 1 1% Day of Collection 18 15% 24 hours prior 17 14% >24 hours prior 87 71% Cancelled 16 Total %

32 EXAMPLES Report 2 Order Content

33 EXAMPLES Report 2 Order Content

34 EXAMPLES Reasons for Ineligible as documented on the order Report 2 Order Content

35 CONCLUSION o Electronic documentation should not be reproductions of paper forms. o Utilize features of electronic system to enhance documentation and create smarter documents Dropdown/multi-select checkboxes create data that can be extracted Calculation logic for dates Documentation reminders/notification alerts

36 CONCLUSION o Identifying areas in the EMR where data in entered/captured will allow for development of reports for quality review. o Reports have the ability to be conditional and repetitious

37 CONCLUSION o Report Types Delivered Excel/PDF Time based (weekly, quarterly) On Demand/Self generated Parameter based Content pre built Time frame variable
