Cognos2 Service Starter lists the patient services that came in on the Cognos EPR Report and facilitates getting new records started, or updating existing records with the new service info. It's part of Cognos2 can be opened with the "CSS" button on the Main Form (CCMDB.accdb).

Cognos2 Service Starter can be opened with the "CSS" button on the Main Form .

Use this to figure out which service records in cognos don't have an entry on your laptop yet, and to start an entry for it. Lines with a white plus don't have a profile for this pt on this laptop yet. Lines with a pink plus already have a record, but may need a new one or a new Service tmp entry.

Use the "exclude" button to remove a line; if the same pt shows up again for the same service with a different date, a new line will show.

Use the "View exclusions" button to see lines that have been excluded; this is by hospital MRN so search/filter with that.

Use the O and + buttons similar to how they are used in Cognos Admitter. Meanings of colours are at the bottom of the screen. The buttons will open the record to the Patient Viewer Tab Cognos ADT2, where other service or unit entries for that record can then be entered.

Why does this not contain unit info?

  1. adding unit info would quickly get us back to the same problem that was Cognos Admitter: each pt can have multiple services and multiple units and there is no good way to list this info without it getting cluttered
  2. More importantly: is unit info actually needed at the time of deciding to start a record? This form is only meant to make you aware that you need to deal with a new pt; either by entering them (in which case the unit data will become available in Patient Viewer Tab Cognos ADT2), or by excluding them.
    1. There were concerns about entering a patient who is in ER under one of our services but has not yet either been discharged (old concept EMIP) or been moved to a unit (regular inpatient). Apparently some people don't enter these until they resolve to either EMIP or in-patient. There really is no reason to wait for this, since data for both would be entered the same: minimal data set now, everything else later.

Problem: minimal data set

Entering a record without an Arrive DtTm (such as a pt still in ER) used to cause errors for Minimal Data Set cross check; the check has been removed.
