Search Filters Page

The first page, Search Filters, allows you to enter in all criteria at one time by using Pause and Resume functionality.

Here are more ways to use the Patient Summary page:

Use the Pause button (see callout 1) to pause the per click refresh prior to starting your query.
Click on an individual filter (see callout 2 for an example) to select options, or search to refine options displayed.
Once all your criteria are selected, select Resume to run your search. Use the additional tabs on the page (see callout 3) to move forward to the other corresponding pages.
If you need assistance, select the “i” icon (see callout 4) to download the user guide.

You will receive an error message in red located in the middle grey bar if the query criteria you’ve entered does not match any patients.

The METRIC filter allows you to switch from unique Patient Counts to Patient Visits on both the Search Filters and Patient Summary pages.

Patient Counts provides a view of unique patient counts on the Patient Summary page. For example, if a patient has visited the clinic 10 times within the past 2 years, this patient will be counted once in the Patient Counts view.

Patient Visits provides a view of the total count of each individual visit per patient within the past 2 years. For example, if a patient has visited the office 10 times within the past 2 years, this patient will be counted 10 times. From this view, practices can understand how many drugs/counts have been ordered, if oral, and administered, if IV. The Patient Visits metric only applies to the Search Filters and Patient Summary pages.

Patient Summary Page

The second page, Patient Summary, shows counts for individual criteria and maintains the query applied on the Search Filters page. Filters are categorized into groups by color. For example, clinical filters are in green and biomarkers are in purple.

Once you have finalized your criteria, click View Patient Details to see patient specific details.

Here are more ways to use the Patient Summary page:

Criteria entered on the Search Filters tab will persist on this page. You can then view counts for individual filter options (see callout 1 for an example). You can also modify the query by directly clicking on the cells on this page and changing the criteria.
Switch from unique Patient Counts to Patient Visits using the Metric drop down (see callout 2). This option provides a view of unique patient counts on the Patient Summary page.
Navigate to any page simply by clicking on its tab (see callout 3).

Patient Details Page

On the third page, Patient Details, users will see patients and information based on the criterion and filters that were selected in the prior two pages.

Users can also go back to the Patient Summary page or the Search Filters page to adjust their query by clicking either the Back to Patient Summary or Back to Search buttons.

Here are more ways to use the Patient Summary page:

Search for specific information in the patient details list using the search bar (see callout 1).
The Patient Chart view appears when selecting any cell within a patient’s row of information, and displays the patient’s treatment, diagnoses, and other information over time (see callout 2).
Export the Patient Details by activating the grid and selecting Download (see callout 3) to choose the preferred file format.
Navigate to any page simply by clicking on its tab (see callout 4).
The Patient Chart appears below the Patient Details table to display a single patient information graphed over time.
Patient Explorer Tool Information
Data Element Definitions
Primary Diagnosis - This is the diagnosis that a patient is currently/actively being treated for. If a patient has been diagnosed with multiple diagnoses, the logic to rank which shows as primary is as follows:
- Rank an active cancer over an inactive/null cancer.
- Rank the cancer with the most encounters/treatments over the lesser. At an point, if the lesser treated diagnosis becomes the primary/active/more treated diagnosis
- Rank the cancer by ICD-10 code if there is still a tie after applying the above logic.
Latest Diagnosis - This is the diagnosis that was charted on the patient's latest visit.
If the primary or latest diagnosis is not cancer related, it will be labeled as Non-Cancer.
Metrics
Patient Counts - Patient Counts will provide a view of unique patient counts. For example, if a patient has visited the clinic 10 times within the past 2 years, this patient will be counted once in the Patient Counts view.
Patient Visits (Drug Overview) - This will provide a view of the total count (sum) of each individual visit per patient within the past 2 years. This number may be higher than the Patient counts view by nature. For example, if the same patient as above visited the office 10 times within the past 2 years, this patient will be counted 10 times. From this view, practices can understand how many drugs/counts have been ordered, if oral and administered, if IV.
