Support - Dashboard

What is a Dashboard?

Although SNFQAPI comes preformatted and ready to go, your QAPI Chairperson can customize the Dashboard to meet your facility's specific needs. For example, if you received multiple deficiencies on your last annual survey, mock survey or as a result of a complaint visit during the year, you can set up SNFQAPI to monitor those indicators more frequently. Simply select the committee from the drop-down and choose the indicator you want to be reviewed and click on the months you want committee members to review it. Hold your mouse over any indicator and see the question pop-up.

SNFQAPI identifies deficiencies by analyzing committee member responses and automatically reassigns deficient indicators the following month. Sub-standard deficiencies and potential litigation Ftags can trigger multiple indicators to be monitored. Deficiencies turn red on the dashboard to identify problem areas and trends. Deficient practices are automatically reviewed monthly until the facility is 100% in compliance. Create your own indicators by simply clicking on "add new indicator" in the dashboard drop down. Some facilities customized indicators include: policies and procedures, litigation avoidance, customer satisfaction, medical records audits, quality measures, readmission tracking, adverse events, etc.
