# Category of Care Reports

The Category of Care Reports functionality of the HT Reports module generates a report on the number of Home Telehealth (HT) patients within the various categories of care: Non-Institutionalized Care (NIC)*, Chronic Care Management, Acute Care Management, Health Promotion / Disease Prevention, and Low Acute / Low Intensity. The user has the option of narrowing the report output by Week Ending date and Vendor.

1. Click on HT Reports > Census Reports > Category of Care Reports.

2. In this release of the Category of Care 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 that data is received from any of the Vendors.

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

5. Click Continue.

6. The report output displays the total number of patients (and percentage) within each category. The far right column lists the total number of patients for all Vendors or the Vendor selected in Step#4.

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

* To be categorized as NIC, patients must have been assessed by a clinical care coordinator using the Continuum of Care Form (CCF) and have met NIC inclusion criteria. The CCF assessment is completed at least once every six months to determine if patients continue to meet NIC criteria or should be re-categorized. The outcome of the CCF is documented in the Computerized Patient Record System (CPRS) medical record.
