FRG Presents: Persistent Context for AccuReports

Financial Recovery Group (FRG) is proud of the work our team of experts consistently does to make it easier for users to engage with AccuReports, our healthcare reporting software, and glean valuable insights into their business’s performance with every interaction.

One of the new features recently added to FRG’s proprietary software is Persistent Context.

What is Persistent Context?

For the analyst at heart, this new AccuReports feature allows users to follow a train of thought through a series of reports without having to re-enter the selection criteria that reports have in common.

For example, users who run the Funding and Expense by PCP report and identify a particular PCP whose panel is out of balance they can drill through, like always, to see that PCP’s panel.   They can lock in the scope (date, payor, product, PCP) to understand the PCP’s performance across other domains without reentering the parameters.

This new feature is great for users looking to identify High-Cost Members, review Specialty Costs, understand Quality Performance, and review other data they might need to prompt the provider for greater success within a contract.

Using Persistent Context: A Quick Tutorial for AccuReports Users

Step One: Run the Funding and Expense by PCP report and filter for large panels with EFR > 100.

Step Two: Drill through on the PCP NAME to Financial Summary by Member.

Drilling through sets the PCPID in the PCP selection criteria. Clicking “Save Context” will store the date range, payor, product, group, center, and PCP filters so that those choices are pre-selected when you visit other reports in the application. 

Persistent Context works best when reports share common criteria. In some cases, moving from one report to another doesn’t fully transfer settings. FRG is working to bridge reports with similar but different criteria (e.g., Date Range vs Activity Year), and these updates will be implemented seamlessly as they are resolved. In the interim, some selections may be necessary.

Tip: To remove the saved context, click the “Clear Form” button on any report.

Step Three: Open the High-Cost Members report from the menu and click Run Report.

Once the context is saved, variables will be pre-populated with that context in subsequent reports you open. 

For example, open the High-Cost Member report directly from the menu, as pictured below. Note that the PCP Name is pre-populated in the selection criteria area. Just click “Run Report.”

The Professional Expense Summary by Provider works in the same way to show the doctors performing specialty care for the patients managed by the primary care physician you are studying.
