Census Activity Reports

The Census Activity Reports functionality of the HT Reports module generates a report on the number of active Home Telehealth (HT) patients in the HT program as reported by each of the HT vendors who have National Contract awards. User have the option of narrowing the report output by Week Ending date, Modality, and by Vendor.

NOTE: Click on the links at the bottom of the report criteria selection window to view the Geographic Distribution of Home Telehealth Patients and the CCHT Enrollment Trend.

1. Click on HT Reports > Census  Reports > Census Activity Reports.

2. In this release of the Census Activity Reports functionality, only National patient totals are available. Future releases will include the ability to narrow the report by VISN and facility.

3. Specify the Week Ending date by selecting the date from the drop-down menu. The Week Ending date is the last week with any data received from any of the Vendor(s).

4. Select the Modality from the drop-down menu. The options to choose from include the following:

• All Modalities (default)

• Messaging Total

• Messaging by Device: Home Telehealth device/appliance

• Messaging by IVR: Interactive Voice Response

• Messaging by Browser: World Wide Web

• Messaging (IVR, device, or browser not yet assigned)

• Peripheral Measurements: Refers to obtaining Vital Signs (pulse, blood pressure, etc.) weight, pulse oximetry, or glucose readings.

• Video: Involves a video camera connection capability between the clinician and the Veteran

• Cellular Modem Transmission

• Satellite Transmission

• Digital Image Capture

5. The default for Vendor is "All Vendors". To narrow the report to one Vendor, select the Vendor name from the drop-down menu.

6. Click Continue.

7. The report window displays with a table containing the national totals for the number of active HT patients in the National Totals column for each of the report criteria selected in the above steps. For example, if "Messaging by Device" is selected in Step #4, the National Totals column indicates the number of active HT patients being supported by Home Devices.

NOTE: Since many patients are being supported by more than one modality (e.g. Device, IVR, etc), the number listed under the National Totals column will not equal the sum of the other columns. The sum of those columns will be greater than the Total Patients number displaying in the first row.

8. Click Back to return to the previous window to generate a new report.
