The presenter: Dr. Victor Fujimoto
The ask:
At the end of this presentation, we will request this committee to prioritize phase 1 of this project. 1. Scope:
a) Phase I – 2014 (see Appendix for detailed HL7) ADT HL7 (Selective Patient & Visit files) outbound interface to IDEAS from APeX SCHED HL7 outbound SIU - Appointment records will be created, modified or removed in response to received
scheduling information interface to IDEAS, from APeX
b) Phase II – to be advised Transcriptions (Progress Notes/Documents) interface inbound to APeX , from IDEAS Orders outbound interface to Ideas (copy of SQ feed), Export results interface to IDEAS from APeX: Lab, Rad.,
CoPath, & External Labs
2. Size (IT/CS): Small (492 Hours)

Project Drivers: Elimination of errors due to duplicate data entering
Transparency of medical records in IDEAS to be available to all of the Medical Center as well as other affiliates
Charge capture efficiencies, reduction of errors, & less manual edits
Increased practice charge capture efficiency
Increased utilization of APeX as primary charge capture/appointment scheduling software
Potential for increased MyChart enrollment and better patient engagement through use of MyChart
Increased practitioner and employee productivity, due to reduction in time using two EMR systems; reducing double entry
Increased patient, practitioner and employee satisfaction
4
Context or Background:CYCLE SUMMARY
APEX limitations
IDEAS more
robust functionality
Magnitude of
double entry required
Need for
streamlining workflow &
increase efficiencies

Appendix:
IDEAS-APeX HL7 Interfaces Inbound (to IDEAS) outbound APeX ADT - Selective processing of
messages for relevant patient files Demographical field updates are based on a Registration ID match, otherwise,
new patient file records will be created Clinic-defined field elements may be matched optionally using look-up codes, as
applicable
Inbound (to IDEAS) outbound APeX SIU - Appointment records will be created, modified or removed in response to received scheduling information Events will be matched based on a one-to-one relationship with APeX definitions Person record identification will be attempted based on Provider No. matches Related cycle associations will be determined using the same default value
algorithm employed in the IDEAS Appointment Diary
Funding/Costs Summary:
9
• Funded by: OBGYN/RS Department & IT/CS
• Vendor Hardware/Software & Labor Costs:
Vendor: Mellowood $ 30,000
Total Vendor Costs $ 30,000
• IT/CS Labor, by team:
IT Interface Team (SCHED & ADT) $ 18,900
CS APeX Access Team $ 10,800
IT QA/Testing Team $ 4,800
IT PMO (Cost to be absorbed by IT PMO) $ 25,920
Total IT/CS Labor $ 60,420
• Total Cost of Project: $ 90,420 first yearOBGYN/RS Department Cost: $ 64,500 first year
IT/CS absorbed cost: $ 25,920 first year
• Plus, Annual Maintenance Fee (Mellowood): $6,000 end of first year forward
Assumptions:
1) OBGYN/RS resources and decision makers required to do the analysis, testing and issue resolution are committed to working with the IT/CS teams on this project during the timeline indicated.
2) A PMO PM will be made available to manage the project without cost (.2 FTE; ~ 8hrs/wk).
3) Should significant alteration of HL7 messages be required of interface team, labor costs will be adjusted. Same if less effort than estimated.
4) Should significant APeX build changes be required of the APeX teams, labor costs will be adjusted. Same if less effort than estimated.

Appendix:
IDEAS to/from APeX today1. Patient Referrals
Physician notes are copy/pasted from APeX into IDEAS
2. Clinic registration (x4) is performed in both IDEAS and APeX Patient and Partners/Donors are registered in both IDEAS and APeX
3. Clinic schedulers record appointments in IDEAS first Detailed Assisted Reproductive Technology “ART” patient “Cycles” are scheduled in IDEAS Patient appointments are later duplicated in APeX Cadence the day before the scheduled
appointment to record arrival and subsequent charge capture
4. Patient insurance information is entered into IDEAS first and later duplicated and expanded in APeX to insure accurate charge capture
IDEAS software is used to communicate unique revenue capture information from the billing staff to front office staff to support accurate point-of-service revenue collections for all scheduled patient office visits, procedures, labs, & associated medications , if applicable
13
Appendix:
IDEAS to/from APeX today5. All clinical data is documented in IDEAS; limited clinical data is documented in APeX
Notes: Patient intake forms are data entered as discreet values into IDEAS only; not into
APeX. External medical records are scanned into IDEAS only; not into APeX. Practice is currently developing an online Patient Portal in IDEAS (similar to one being
considered for UCSF in APeX) to enable self patient registration. (IDEAS Patient Portal is in the testing phase)
Perioperative MRH schedules, arrivals & charge capture activities are all performed in APeX; not in IDEAS
6. Patient encounter documentation Process is primarily performed in APeX
7. Unique In-cycle (menstrual) clinical information Is all recorded in IDEAS
8. Front desk staff create appointments for scheduled patients in Cadence The day before expected patient arrival, which allows practitioner the ability to close encounter
enabling appropriate charges to drop into billing work queue.
14
Appendix:
IDEAS to/from APeX today:9. Charge/Coding review
Practice coders must access documentation in IDEAS to proper code charges in APEX.
10. Reproductive Lab Results, 8th floor On site lab results are copy/pasted into APeX from IDEAS by clinical staff, as needed for male
reproductive health and procedural area (HOD) E.g. Semen Analysis, blood draw, ultrasounds -- creates billing issues (procedural area
is an HOD)
11. UCSF Lab interfaces to APeX UCSF Lab results are copy/pasted by clinical staff into IDEAS from APeX
12. External Labs interfaces to APeX Quest, LabCorp near term and then will manually need to be entered in IDEAS Kaiser long term and then will manually need to be entered in IDEAS
13. On Site Radiology: Ultrasounds Tech enters into IDEAS and images are manually uploaded to IDEAS
15
Appendix:
IDEAS to/from APeX today:14. If interface …UCSF Radiology: Ultra sounds, MRI, Bone Density, CT Scan
Results are printed from APeX and report is entered/scanned by clinical and administrative staff into IDEAS
No images from UC Radiology go directly into IDEAS, only the report
15. If interface …UCSF Pathology When miscarriage an MUA (DnC) is sent to CoPath Order is created in APeX, tissue is sent to pathology
16. External Vendors Specialized genetic tests: endometrial biopsies, PGS Paper order, email results, etc.
