Introduction

 

Welcome to the June 2022 release of Merative Integrated Care. When configuring assessments, you can now reuse questions across assessment measures and apply unique scoring to a question dependent on the measure it is associated with. Previously, Cognos was used to run reports. Now, in addition to Cognos, Integrated Care Reporting is introducing a bring-your-own-tool (BYOT) solution which allows you to use your chosen Business Intelligence (BI) tooling. To watch a video that highlights the enhancements, see our June Show and Tell video here.

What's new for administrators

 

Reuse questions across assessment measures

Merative Integrated Care

 

It's now possible to configure complex assessments like the MAYSI-2 or SDM Child Welfare assessments that reuse questions across assessment measures and that may require unique scoring to be applied to a question dependent on the measure it is associated with. When you configure an assessment with multiple measures, you must create one or more clusters of questions for scoring purposes. It wasn't possible to associate a single cluster of questions with more than one measure, now it is. You can associate a cluster of questions with more than one measure and apply unique scoring to a question within a cluster at each individual measure level.

 

 

What's new for reporting

 

Bring your own tool

Reporting

 

In this release Integrated Care Reporting is introducing a Bring-Your-Own-Tool (BYOT) solution which will allow you to view your Merative Integrated Care transactional data in your local Business Intelligence (BI) tooling. This solution gives you the flexibility to choose a Business Intelligence (BI) tool that suits the needs of your organization and choose which data to make available in that tool to use for reporting. You can access the Integrated Care reporting warehouse using tools like Azure Power BI ,Jasper Soft, Cognos or BIRT. There will be three integration methods available to wire your reporting tool to the Integrated Care reporting warehouse and retrieve the data you are interested in reporting on for use in your chosen BI tool.

 

• Direct BI tool connection. Your BI tool reads directly from Integrated Care reporting data.
• Federated Customer. Your BI tool reads from your own data warehouse federated to Integrated Care reporting data warehouse.
• Data download. You create a program to copy data into your data warehouse from Integrated Care reporting data warehouse.

 

The Integrated Care Documentation Center contains evaluation criteria that can help you determine which integration method would work best for your organization.

Known Issues

 

Merative Integrated Care

 

• When you repeat an Assessment or Questionnaire with prefilling configured at the Assessment or Questionnaire level and the question level, and the prefilling criteria at the Assessment or Questionnaire level is set to True and at the question level is set to Use Assessment or Questionnaire configuration or Always prefill,  and you click Cancel to dismiss the repeat, a new "in progress" assessment or questionnaire record is incorrectly created. The incorrect "in progress" record is displayed the next time the Assessments list page is refreshed or when you manually refresh the Assessments list page. To correct the issue, delete the "in progress" assessment or questionnaire record and start the repeat again. (Legacy ID 276520, WHPOCWCMS-2841)
• If you try to complete certain actions, for example, create a referral or assign a program, and you do not have access to the client, you cannot complete the action and no error message is displayed. If you are sure that you need access to the client, either request emergency access to the client or ask a care team member to add you to the client's care team. (Legacy ID 259832, WHPOCWCMS-2878)
• If you edit a date data attribute for a client data type, and select Current Date Comparison, then Custom Message, and enter an incorrect message ID, the custom message fields are no longer visible. To see the fields, select None, then re-select Current Date Comparison and Custom Message. (Legacy ID 264393, WHPOCWCMS-2831)
• When you configure a client data attribute to not use the default value, the value is still visible to care team members. As a workaround, care team members can delete the default value and enter another value. (Legacy ID 263255, WHPOCWCMS-2864)
• When you configure an information message for a client data type cluster, the message is displayed twice. To avoid this, you can add a description to the data cluster instead of an information message. The description displays to care team members below the cluster title. (Legacy ID 263229, WHPOCWCMS-2900)
• If you delete a data attribute from a client data type and that attribute was used in a duplicate validation, the validation is not automatically deleted. If you encounter this issue, you can manually delete the validation. (Legacy ID 264986, WHPOCWCMS-2944).
• You can deactivate a client from your Unassigned Clients list. If you do and choose to close their client account, you encounter an error. You can proceed to deactivate the client without closing their account. However, if you do, the client will appear as deactivated in Integrated Care but they still incorrectly retain access to their Connect Individuals account. On deactivation, a client shouldn't be able to access their Connect Individuals account. (Legacy ID 274018, WHPOCWCMS-2942)
• In Tenant Administration, if a Non-Configurable data type is hidden, and it has an associated Summary card, this card is automatically hidden on the Default Client Summary view on the Care Team workspace. This card will not be automatically hidden on any role-based configurations that a customer has created. You can manually hide these cards on the role-based Configuration page in Tenant Administration. (Legacy ID 274115, WHPOCWCMS-3461)

 

Reporting

 

• When a note is created in Draft or Ready to Review status, the first comment is missing from the full set of comments. (Legacy ID 276214, WHPOCWCMS-2710)
