Highlighted Elements

Some of the pre-filled elements are highlighted with different colors to indicate their source of information.  For example, if a measure was performed in the practice, its related pre-filled elements will be highlighted with a light green background.  Only elements with pre-filled values of "Yes" are highlighted.  Elements that were set to "Claim Not Found" or blank are not be highlighted. The table below lists the highlighted elements. Topic Measure # Element Description May be pre-filled with "Claim Not Found"? DM DM-2 HbA1c Date Drawn DM DM-5 LDL-C Date Drawn DM DM-6 Med.

User Changes When RTI pre-populates the database using data from claims, they are able to determine if certain processes were performed within the practice or not.  This data about the source of data (metadata) is also stored in the database that is distributed to the practices.  If the user opted to display the highlights, the tool always uses this metadata in determining what color to use in highlighting the elements.  This means that the tool will highlight the element in the same way even if a user has already changed its value.
