After collecting and entering the data for a clinical domain for a patient, that data must be approved before submission to CMS. You must approve the data for each clinical domain that a patient is ranked for.
Follow these steps to approve data for a patient:
-
Select Unapproved Groups from the dropdown for Rows Containing to quickly find those patients who need approval.
-
Select the patient name. The summary screen appears.
-
Each clinical domain will have a progress indicator which shows if the data is incomplete, complete, or approved.
-
For any domain that is not showing 100% Complete, select Edit.
-
Review the answers and select the Approved box when you are satisfied that the answers are complete and correct.
-
Select Save.
