Report Filters

When a report includes filter logic, you can filter the report based on Staff, Patient, Service, a specific date range, etc. These filters can be saved for future use on the report they were created on. For example, if a filter was created on the Signed Note report, it can only be used on the signed note report. 

   

Filters applied to the report show in the header of the report export and email attachments. 


Audit Summary Report 

As part of the Audit Review workflow for Bells Administrators and Supervisors, the Audit Summary Report shows the Notes that were tagged as Similar or Overlapping. 

In this report are the note records tagged as Similar or Overlapping via the Audit Review workflow. You can find more information in the Audit Review article.

The Audit Summary report includes report filters that allow you to narrow down your display based on the filters applied. The report filters for the audit summary report include a date which can be a relative date like today, yesterday, or a range. You can also choose a custom date range. Additionally, the report can be filtered by a staff or multiple staff as well as patients. There is also a filter to only see the Similar Notes or Overlap Notes. These filters can be saved and reused each time you access this report as well as deleted if you no longer need them. 

Clicking a row in the report will expand the right hand pane to show the details of the similar notes and overlapping notes for the clicked note row. 

The Audit Summary Report can be scheduled to be sent via email by clicking the Email Report button in the top right of the report. Once the report has been scheduled, you will see 'Report email scheduled' underneath the report title. For more information on Scheduling a Report, refer to Scheduling a Report.

You have the ability to export this report with the Export button in the top right of the display. 


Patient Access Report

Audit events around patient access can be found on the Patient Access Report. Access types included in the report are Data Access, Restricted Access, Data Changes and Other Activity.

As part of Patient Population Management, Bells administrators can set up additional patient access restrictions at the Organization Level, User Level and for individual patients. Please refer to the Patient Population Management article for more information. 


Patient Service Usage Report 

The Patient Service Usage report allows users (admin and non-admin alike) to see the services provided per Patient, broken down by Service. 

As an admin, you will see all patients across the organization. As a supervisor, you will see your direct supervisee's patient services as well as your own services. As a non-admin user, you will only see your patient services. 

The patient service usage report includes report filters that allow you to narrow down your display based on the filters applied. The report filters include a date, which can be a relative date like today, yesterday, or a range. You can also choose a custom date range. Additionally, the report can be filtered by a service type. These filters can be saved and reused each time you access this report as well as deleted if you no longer need them. 

The display includes the Patient for the services, what services were provided, the time duration of those services, and the Trend/Previous Period percentage comparison for those services. 

The services included in the report are based on the Signed Notes as part of Bells that include a Session Start and End Time. 

You have the ability to export this report with the Export button in the top right of the display.  


Recommendation Summary Report 

The Recommendation Summary report helps you determine the effectiveness of your organization's clinical recommendations.  You can see if there is no action taken on a recommendation, whether the recommendation was confirmed or dismissed, which rules are used the most, and how staff are using them. This report is only available for Bells Administrators. 

Clinical Recommendations 

The top graph of the report shows Clinical Recommendations over time. This line graph shows the Clinical Recommendations made for the previous period across 3 categories - No Action, Confirmed, and Dismissed. The period *in the upper-left corner of the graph) can be selected from several relative dates (today, last 3 days, etc) or a custom date range.

In the top right corner of the graph, you will see a button for "View Data." Clicking this button will open a window displaying the detailed data behind the graph. In this view, you can see the issue encountered, along with its context, so you can better understand the driver of the recommendation. 

In this raw data view, you see the staff that triggered the Clinical Recommendation, the relevant rule, the action taken by the staff, the issue that triggered the recommendation, the suggestion given, the textual context from the note, and when the recommendation was given. 

This view can also be exported. 


Rule Distribution  

The Rule Distribution graph is shown on the left side under the Clinical Recommendation graph. This stacked bar chart shows which rules had no action taken/confirmed/dismissed most often. The graph shows the previous 12 weeks across the nine rule type categories and how often those rules were No Action, Confirmed, or Dismissed. 

In the top right corner of the graph, you will see a button for "View Data." Clicking this button will open a window displaying the detailed data behind the graph. In this view, you can see the rule applied, along with whether your staff accepted, dismissed, or if there was no action taken, so you can better understand the driver of the recommendation.  

In this raw data view, you see the rule, the word (issue) causing the recommendation to alert, the staff that triggered the clinical recommendation, and the number of times it was accepted, dismissed, or if there was no action taken. 

This view can also be exported. 


User Distribution  

The User Distribution graph is shown on the right side under the Clinical Recommendation graph. This graph shows the number of recommendations that had no action taken vs. confirmed/dismissed per note. This column graph contains data for the previous 12 weeks. Only staff that have taken no action for 5 or more recommendations in the period will be included in the graph. 

In the top right corner of the graph, you will see a button for "View Data." Clicking this button will open a window displaying the detailed data behind the graph. This allows you to see how your staff are triggering and accepting/dismissing/ignoring the rule so you can better understand the driver of the recommendation. 

In this raw data view, each staff row can be expanded to see a breakdown of the data. Once expanded, you can see each rule, the issue, and the number of times the recommendation was accepted, dismissed or if no action was taken.  

This view can also be exported. 


Report Delivery Schedules Report

In organization preferences, the Bells Administrators can enable the Email Report functionality. When turned on, Bells Administrators will see Report Delivery Schedules in the list of available reports. This report shows all scheduled reports that are configured for email delivery.

The body of the email will have a summary of key metrics related to the email, as well as a summary of the filters applied to the data in the attached file. Here is an example of the Patient Access Report email:

The email attachment is encrypted and password-protected. To extract the report from the zip file, you will need to use zip file software that allows you to supply the password for the zip, such as 7-Zip.  If you do not know the report password, you will need to request it from the report sender.  

NOTE: The default Windows zip file extractor does not give you the ability to specify the password and will not work when you double click from the saved location. You will receive the following message.
