Open Esophageal Procedures Cohort

The Open Esophageal Procedures Cohort includes all encounters with an MS-DRG for a Stomach, Esophageal and Duodenal Procedure with at least one open esophageal procedure code.

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.
