CareManager patient registry
In CareManager the Patient Registry includes myEvolv clients whose information is used for statistical analysis in CareManager.
The CareManager Patient Registry is where you create and view charts and graphs that present client information in terms of cohorts. A cohort is a group of individuals (clients) that are looked at statistically in terms of a common factor, such as age or diagnosis.
The Patient Registry screen is divided into three tabs: Identify, Compare, and Manage.
- Identify tab - This is where you locate the cohort you want to work with using predefined charts and graphs.
- Compare tab - This is where you compare the selected cohort to the overall population using predefined charts and graphs.
- Manage tab - This is where you route client-related tasks to myEvolv staff members based on information sent from myEvolv to CareManager for the following groups.
- Primary workers
- Primary and Direct workers
- All users that have access to a client
See CareManager Patient Registry Charts and Graphs for a discussion of the Patient Registry dashboard.
