How can I resolve issues with the CCM worklist and patient dashboard in ThoroughCare?

The CCM (Chronic Care Management) worklist and patient dashboard in ThoroughCare are essential tools for managing patient records and logging minutes. Occasionally, users may encounter issues with data display, such as incorrect minutes or unexpected patient statuses. Below is a guide to help you understand and resolve these common challenges.

Understanding and Troubleshooting Incorrect Patient Minutes

Incorrect minutes appearing in the CCM worklist are often related to outdated or cached data in your internet browser. To ensure that you are viewing the most current information, clearing your browser cache can resolve many of these issues. Here are the generalized steps to do this:

  1. Open your internet browser settings.

  2. Navigate to the privacy or browsing data section.

  3. Select the option to clear browsing data.

  4. Ensure options like Cached data and Cookies are selected.

  5. Confirm to delete the data and restart your browser. For detailed browser-specific instructions, refer to the documentation for your preferred browser.

Handling Inactive Patients on the Dashboard

Inactive patients may sometimes still appear in the '0' minute column of the dashboard. This behavior occurs as a design feature to ensure accurate billing and tracking:

  • Patients who are inactivated within a month remain in the 'Enrolled' bucket, which includes both actively enrolled patients and those inactivated during that month.

  • This allows for billing for inactivated patients if they have recorded billable time during the month.

  • At the start of the next month, these patients are transferred to the 'Inactive' bucket and removed from other lists, including the '0' minute column. This design ensures important billing data is not lost during inactivation and provides predictable transitions for patient statuses.

General Tips for Platform Optimization

To minimize display issues and ensure smooth operation of the platform:

  • Regularly clear your browser's cache.

  • Verify your patient statuses and their respective buckets on the dashboard for accuracy.

  • Use up-to-date browser versions and ensure a stable internet connection. By following these steps, you can address most display discrepancies and better understand the logic behind dashboard statuses in ThoroughCare.
