The Data Entry Concept

The Key for Success

• The data entry concept is key for the

efficiency and the ROI (Return On

Investment). With the ifa Data Entry

Concept (DEC) a unique ergonomic user

interface has been developed for all

kinds of eye care environments.

The Data Entry Concept

The Pareto principle

• The Pareto principle (also known as the

80-20 rule), states that, for many events,

roughly 80% of the effects come from

20% of the causes. For the clinical

documentation in eye care that means:

with 20% of the terms and codes

approx. 80% of the patient record can be

managed.

The Data Entry Concept

The unique Pareto Solution

• With the ifa SmartScreen technology 20% of the terms and

codes are integrated into data entry templates. The buttons

represent codes which are mapped to complete text

descriptions.

• For example with 20% of the diagnosis codes more than 80%

of the patient cases can be documented. The frequently used

24 diagnosis e.g. are covering approx. 80% of all patient

encounters in ophthalmology.

• Corresponding with the subspecialty (retina, surgery,

glaucoma etc.) or with a general ophthalmology environment

these 24 ICD codes are represented by a template to choose

the diagnosis just by a mouse click.

The Data Entry Concept

How to create „meaningful“ data with an

outstanding comfort:

80% Data Entry with just a

mouse click

15% Data Entry with choosing

from a comprehensive code list

5% Data Entry with text

(individual by keyboard)

More Comfort Features

• In addition to the SmartScreen data entry comfort

more features support the easy EMR use:

– Clinical Pathway Profiles structure the workflow and guide

the user

– The Batch Buttons combine complete documentation

routines with one “click”

– For repeating unchanged findings from previous visits the

“Idem” Button can be used

• All features are integrated into the user interface

and can be further customized.

Conclusion

• The benefits of the ifa Data Entry Concept (DEC) combined

with the Pareto Principles:

– With a streamlined customization the existing clinical pathways can

be transferred to the user interface.

– The presetting with “buttons” make the EMR application very easy to

learn and to use.

– Enormous time is saved by the SmartScreen technology (1 min. per

patient can mean 200 hrs. per year/per MD)

– The pre-structured information guarantee “meaningful data” for

outcome analysis and data mining
