Overview
The Totals report is composed of several reports in each topic. It displays the total number of completed and incomplete records per topic and makes suggestions on how to meet the minimum number of required records. See the description of each report below.
Screen Shots
Below are screen shots of a sample report. The first one is the summary of the report showing the totals of the first few topics.
Hints:
- The Report Type indicates whether you are viewing the summary or details.
- Use the scroll bar to the right of the grid to view more reports.
- Pay attention to the text under the Comments column. The instructions may help you complete a topic.
- To view the list of records in a report (e.g. DM-->All Incomplete), select that row and click the Details button or, as a short cut, double click on that row.

The detailed report is especially helpful in determining the list of incomplete records.

The table below lists the reports in each topic. See the topic Totals - Requirements & Counting for more information on how each report is calculated.
| Report Name | Description |
| All Ranked Patients | All ranked patients in a topic. |
| All Completed | All ranked patients in a topic marked as completed on that topic. For topics with less than 218 patients, the number in this report must equal to the number in the "All Ranked Patients" report. |
| All Incomplete | All ranked patients in a topic marked as incomplete. |
| Consecutively Completed | Ranked patients with a completed topic starting from rank 1 without an incomplete in between them. Only completed records before the first incomplete record are counted. |
| Med. Rec. Not Found | Consecutively completed patients where the confirmation element is "Med. Rec. Not Found". |
| Not Confirmed | Consecutively completed patients where the confirmation element is set to "No". |
| For Analysis | Consecutively completed patients where the confirmation element is set to "Yes".
These are the completed and confirmed topics. For topics with equal
to or greater than 218 patients, this must be at least 218 unless 100% of the records
have already been completed. NOTE: When analyzing the rates of measures, it is possible that not all records available for analysis will be included in the denominator. For this report, MCMP-PAT only counts the completed and confirmed topics. It does not look for other criteria like age, gender and the selected item in an element (Yes/No/No-Medical Reasons, etc). See the topic Totals - Requirements & Counting for information on how MCMP-PAT calculates the total. Refer to the Quality Measurement and Reporting Specifications document for information on how the measure rates are calculated. |
Back to topReport Comments
These are the possible messages that may appear under the Comments column in the summary of the report.
| Text | Description |
| XX.XX% of consecutively completed. | Indicates the percentage of records not found or unconfirmed records within the consecutively completed records. This message appears only next to the "Med. Rec. Not Found" and "Not Confirmed" reports. |
| WARNING! Greater than 6 and is XX.XX% of consecutively completed. | This indicates that the number of not found or unconfirmed records is more than 6 and its percentage in relation to the consecutively completed reports is equal to or greater than 20%. This warning appears only next to the "Med. Rec. Not Found" and "Not Confirmed" reports. See the notes below for more information. |
| INCOMPLETE! X more record(s) must be completed. | Indicates that X number of records were left incomplete and must be completed for the topic to be considered in the analysis. This message appears only next to the "For Analysis" reports. |
| INCOMPLETE! Minimum total not met. | This indicates that there are 218 or more ranked records in a topic and the minimum
total has not been met. This message appears only next to the "For Analysis"
reports. If this message appears, see the total for "All Incomplete" (you may have to complete all of them) and the total for "For Analysis" (you may have to reach 218 if not all records have been completed yet). See the topic Totals - Requirements & Counting for more information. |
| OK | Indicates that the minimum number of consecutively completed records for the topic has been met. This does not automatically indicate that the topic will be considered for analysis. The number of not found and unconfirmed records will also have to be examined. This message appears only next to the "For Analysis" reports. |
| Topic will not be submitted for analysis. | This indicates that you opted not to abstract and submit the topic. The tool will still display the totals for this topic but it will not be considered in the analysis. See the topic on Measures for more information on how to change the topics and measures to submit. This message appears only next to the "For Analysis" reports. |

| Button Text | Description |
| Details/Summary | The leftmost button is a toggle button. It displays "Details" if the report
shown is the summary and displays "Summary" if the report shown is the details
of a row. If the text is "Details", clicking on this button will show the
list of records under the selected row and will change the text to "Summary". If
the selected row does not have a total or if the total is zero, no details will
be shown. Double clicking on a row has the same effect as selecting it and
clicking on the "Details" button. If the text displayed is "Summary" it brings the user back to the summary of the report. |
| Edit Patient | Closes the Totals report and loads the information of the selected patient in the main form. This button is available only in a detailed report and requires that a patient record is currently selected. |
| Preview | Print previews the content of the grid. |
| Close | Closes the Totals report. |
