Understanding the Data

What Counts as an Encounter?

An encounter is counted when a provider:
1. Records a patient conversation
2. The recording is processed
3. A note is generated

Time Saved Calculation

Time saved is estimated based on:
- Average manual documentation time
- Number of encounters processed
- Displayed in hours for easy interpretation

EHR Sent Rate

The percentage of generated notes that were sent to the EHR system. This requires:
- Active EHR integration
- Users clicking "Send to EHR" on their notes

Using Analytics Effectively

Monitoring Adoption

Track provider adoption by watching:
- Total Providers count over time
- Individual provider encounter counts
- Providers with zero encounters (may need training)

Identifying Training Needs

Look for:
- Providers with low encounter counts
- Specialties with lower-than-expected usage
- Declining trends in specific areas

Demonstrating ROI

Export or screenshot analytics for:
- Executive reporting
- Board presentations
- Vendor reviews
- Budget justification
