Indicator Logic Tool

Vision+ has an Indicator Logic Tool which is extremely useful for analysing the rule set logic behind any register or indicator.

Indicator Logic makes it possible to understand how a rule works. For example, it is very useful to understand why an outstanding Indicator is actually outstanding. It takes you through the rule set a step at a time analysing what is going on in the background. The Indicator Logic Tool is accessed from the Pop-up Alert Indicator screen and from Contract Templates.

1. To access the Indicator Logic Tool, you can:

   • Right-click the indicator from the Pop-up Alert Indicator screen and select Indicator Logic:

     

   • Select the indicator line from the Pop-up Alert Indicator screen and then select from the toolbar:

     

   • Select Indicator Logic from the toolbar of a template:

     

2. The Indicator Logic screen displays with the currently selected indicator in the title bar:

   

The screen is split into three tabs:

• Register - Explains why the patient is included on the disease register.
• Denominator - Explains why the patient is included in the Indicator.
• Numerator - Explains if the Indicator has been satisfied.

The logical flow goes through the rule one line at a time. If the rule logic for the line is met then the flow progresses to the next line and a blue arrow displays in the relevant True or False column to indicate this. The logical flow progresses through the rule, where it is either Selected or Rejected .
