Step-by-step instructions to view and close care gaps directly in your EHR
Step 1: Identify the [EHR] icon
When users are viewing a patient chart or schedule within your EHR, they may see an [EHR] icon on the right side of their EHR screen. This icon indicates that Vim has surfaced additional patient insights, powered by the patient’s health plan(s).
Step 2: Launch Vim from the EHR
Clicking the [EHR] icon opens Vim’s panel, where you’ll see a list of applications that provide patient insights and data, like quality measures and risk adjustment coding opportunities pulled from the patient’s health plan(s).
Step 3: View and Understand Care Opportunities
Each gap includes:
- Type of gap (e.g., mammogram, A1C, colonoscopy)
- Payer source (which health plan submitted the gap)
- Details or recommendations (where available)
Step 4: Take Action and Document Normally
End users can click on the necessary, prompted actions to close a gap in today's visit (e.g., order a test, schedule a screening). The user then documents that the gap is already closed in the patient's chart.
The user doesn’t need to submit anything separately. Their actions in the EHR will be automatically shared with the health plan if the gap is closed.
Step 5: Return Seamlessly to the EHR Workflow
Once reviewed, simply close the panel and return to the standard workflow. This is designed to be lightweight and embedded with no extra portal login, no switching tabs.
