Outcomes Framework - Date and Entity

Once you select the template and scale(s), you will immediately see the Statistic to the right.

Before we look at the statistics, take a moment to examine the box in the top right titled Select Example Dates. Here we can set two properties:

• The dates are set by Start Month & End Month. Treatment Episodes that begin between these months will be included. Think of the time between these months as a cohort of patients who started care at the same time. Responses occurring outside of these months will still be included if the initial treatment episode falls within the range. By default this looks at patients that started between 6 and 3 months ago, but you can change this to a larger period if you choose.
• The Entity defines a subset of patients who are included based on which part of the organization they are in. Selections can  include the whole organization, a particular unit, or even an individual provider. By default, it will display data for the whole organization. You will be able to see a breakdown of results by provider or unit later, so we recommend leaving it alone for now.
