ENCOR is designed especially for the MEDITECH system in order to improve efficiency of the Core Measures data management process. ENCOR automates much of the manual process of Case Selection, Case Abstraction and Data Submission. ENCOR interfaces seamlessly with the MEDITECH Data Repository as a data source and IndiGo, another Medisolv application designed to support internal reporting and Balanced Scorecard automation. IndiGo is required to operate ENCOR.

ENCOR offers many enhancements of the traditional means of doing core measure data extraction abstraction and submission:

Abstraction Management Support.
To aid in monitoring and managing the Core Measure Abstraction Process, ENCOR includes built in management tools for improved workflow and productivity:

• Abstractor Assignment and tracking Abstraction Status by Abstractor

• Standard Reports. Analyze Measure Results by Attending Provider and Abstractor productivity with ENCOR Standard Reports

Abstraction.
As soon as records are final coded, you can start case abstraction because ENCOR automatically identifies cases for reporting in each of your measures on a daily basis.




Automated Data Abstraction.
Data is pulled directly from EHR data to populate many elements of the abstraction worksheet.




Smart Abstraction Worksheets.
Manual data abstraction for "non automated" data elements is significantly faster with the following features:

• Skip Logic. Based on the answers given to a question, the worksheet skips to the next appropriate question based on CMS guidelines. If desired, hospitals have an option to turn this feature off.
• Patient Data. To minimize the time abstractors need to dedicate to looking at paper charts or looking data up in other systems, ENCOR presents relevant patient data directly from IndiGo including Demographics, Microbiology and Drug Administration data from a link within the Worksheet.

• Dynamic Measure Status. To reduce abstraction errors and provide guidance to abstractors, ENCOR dynamically colors the coded status of each Measure as soon as abstraction questions are answered.

• Abstraction Documentation. If abstractors have questions about any Measure or Measure Set, ENCOR provides a robust set of context sensitive help in the form of full CMS documentation.

Painless Data Submission.
ENCOR generates submission ready XML files for both CMS and The Joint Commission after sign off by hospital staff. Medisolv will provide submission services to both entities.

Balanced Scorecard Integration.
To aid the management team in its goals toward continuous improvement against Core Measure Key Performance Indicators, ENCOR feeds data into the Medisolv IndiGo as cases complete abstraction. This enables internal monitoring via color coded Variance Tracking on Strategic Dashboards.
