Jamie Kim's question on OPA CDC call - do we have lab values (for GDM?) as part of this data set?

Any change in:
Partner onboarding: Working with 3 CHCs, have met with 2 of them, the other is going slower, working mostly through email because of COVID focus. Looking at creating a registry to follow high risk patients: GDM, those in early PP and BP checks for those with HTN or pre-eclampsia, ... in the early pp periods.
One site wanted to look at episodes to track as a priority
The other wanted to look at outcomes as a priority
QI planning
Starting in March likley - to be able to use the data to look at PP metrics to allow them to do the case management.
EHR configuration
Reviewing current documentation in ecentricity and looking at other systems
Have pulled the monthly report
In looking at value sets vs proprietary codes - looking at how to capture the most in terms of contraception.

Lessons Learned
When we asked what our centers' priorities were and brought it to the IT team and needed to prioritize only one of the two reqeusts, or the third one they have because there is only bandwidth to change one - episodes vs outcomes, so, going back to the CHCs to get their opinions on priority.

Any change in:
Partner onboarding - 2 health centers are getting started, one more may come on. Identifying which metrics they are most interested in tracking. GDM in pp period is first, depression screening also of interest, contraception, too. EHR configuration is PP Express Lane. This would be a new build for the CHCs - to trigger the right care, more easily tracked. Practitioners could use the tool to organize the things that need to be done during the visit
QI planning
Before and after look at the workflows - you can show the new workflow or modify the old one to show how things have changed. If you want to, you can also describe at high level what is being added. You don't have to document a whole workflow, NACHC is trying to understand the before and after, so we can help others identify their gaps and make sure that they can pull patients back into the flow.
Good to aligning data piece with QI part - if you are creating new measures and outcomes we can add things to the data dictionary. OCHIN could record those; Alliance would not have to also add those.
EHR configuration
Both clinics have agreed to use the PP Express Lane, Dr. Whitt is modifying the build to work on customizing to each clinic. One is particularly interested in streamlining how they get patients back for GDM screening, so want to integrate that into Express Lane - GDM management is not in-house, but done with a perinatologist.
Want to combine baby visits and GDM so the pediatrician can do that.
Data challenges
Data discovery
Looking at the data overall and for each center.
Need to look at last year's data to see patterns and identify the patients we need to look at.
