Open Hysterectomy Cohort

The Open Hysterectomy Cohort includes encounters in MS-DRG 742-743, with any procedure code for an open approach resection of the uterus.

To leverage this cohort:

• Profile filters: In the Profile Editor, add the cohort as a profile filter. With this option, you can further customize the profile with additional filters.
• Statistical Process Control: Add a Statistical Process Control section to a scorecard and select the cohort from the dropdown. Within this section, the cohort is not customizable and must be used as-is. When drilling into a chart in the SPC section, you can select to create a profile of the encounters you're drilling into so you can analyze and customize further.
