For years healthcare leaders have been faced with demonstrating their value and answering the question, “How is compliance doing?” Getting the answers typically involves a scattered, manual process of pulling data from multiple sources, departments, and teams, then going through the process of aggregating that data to pull important, need-to-know information. By the time that step is complete, often the information is already out of date. 

Compliance Confidence with Real-Time Data. Now You Have Answers. 

We knew there was a better way, and who better to partner with than our existing clients? With our expertise and their input, we developed the new YouCompli Analytics Dashboard, now a standard tool within YouCompli Software for all clients.  

This blog explains what the YouCompli Analytics Dashboard is and how it helps compliance leaders demonstrate the immense value they bring to an organization through their ability to monitor and oversee regulatory work in real time. 

Problem: Accessing Important Compliance Metrics and Data 

Compliance leaders need to monitor and oversee regulatory work throughout the organization, and that can be very challenging. Many organizations lack the time and resources to quickly access regulatory information that may be scattered across an organization and then roll it up into a reportable and actionable result. 

The Solution: Real-Time Metrics and Transparency 

The YouCompli Analytics Dashboard takes regulatory changes and immediately provides you with information on key performance indicators (KPIs) when it comes to compliance. These KPIs are simple to access.  

Just identify the date range of information you want to review and let YouCompli take it from there. You’ll be provided with real-time, on-demand information on all the need-to-know metrics when it comes to implementing and complying with new and updated regulations.  

Task Status: Summary of current task status (e.g., accepted, assigned, in progress, completed) of task due dates within the selected date range. 

Open Requirements by Department: Breaks down open requirements within the selected effective date range and displays the percentage attributed to each department. 

Instead of pulling multiple reports in YouCompli to filter, sort, and manipulate to showcase the regulatory work, now by entering a date range, we’ll do all the hard work for you.  

• Want to know how long it takes you to comply with new regulatory requirements? YouCompli will tell you!  
• Want to know exactly what hasn’t been done yet? See the total amount and then click the number to have the list of overdue requirements at that moment.  
• Doing great? See your overall requirement and task completion rates immediately on how your organization is doing from 0% – 100% to get right to the work that needs to get done or celebrate your accomplishments for a job well done.  

Benchmark data, set goals, and have real-time information to measure improvements against previous performance. 

YouCompli Analytics Dashboard = Operational Accountability 

The YouCompli Analytics Dashboard brings transparency to all departments to evaluate where compliance activities are timely and complete. It also allows you to identify gaps in regulatory oversight and accountability and ensures you’re able to quickly address them. 

Open Requirements by Department: Breaks down open requirements within the selected effective date range and displays the percentage attributed to each department. 

Requirement Status: Summary of current status (e.g., accepted, assigned, in progress, completed) of requirements effective during the selected date range. 

The YouCompli Analytics Dashboard brings to light regulatory compliance activities and how the work is distributed across an organization. It gives insight into: 

The value of regulatory change management software. 

• How many regulations did our organization review? 
• How many regulatory changes have we completed? 
• How many regulatory changes have yet to be done, and … 
• Does this pose potential risk of penalties, fines, investigations or reputation? 
• How are we doing overall? 

YouCompli Analytics Dashboard = Everything You Need to Know 

Nothing comes close to the YouCompli Analytics Dashboard when it comes to quickly and easily monitoring and overseeing the state of regulatory compliance. Whether you’re looking for high-level information for boards and senior leadership teams or more detailed information for compliance committee or department-level teams, the YouCompli Analytics Dashboard provides all the need-to-know information.  

Requirement Completion Rate: Percentage of requirements effective within the selected date range that have been completed. 

Task Completion Rate: Percentage of tasks completed for requirements effective within the selected date range.  

YouCompli Analytics Dashboard Overview 

The YouCompli Analytics Dashboard provides your organization with the following information: 

• Requirement and Task Completion Rates 
• Average Number of Days to Complete Regulatory Requirements and Tasks 
• Requirements Completed with Missing Important Information (Relevance) 
• Total Requirements and Tasks Overdue  
• Total Volume of Regulatory Requirements Published/Assigned in YouCompli  
• List of All Requirements and Tasks Completed 
• Regulatory Requirement and Task Status (Assigned, Accepted, In Progress and Completed  
• Regulatory Requirement Heat Map: Top 5 Departments with Overdue Regulatory Requirements 
• Open Regulatory Requirements Across All Departments 
• Software Utilization Monitoring (Software User Activity and Requirement Completions) 

Example: Values link to detailed reports showing all contributing data. 

What the Data Means: 

Average Days to Requirement Completion: Average number of days between requirement published date and requirement completion date for requirements effective within selected date range.   

Average Dates to Task Completion: Average number of days between the task assigned date and the task completion date for tasks associated with requirements effective during the selected date range.   

Total Requirements Completed, Relevance Unknown: Total number of requirements completed within the selected date range, but relevance status was not answered.  

Total Requirements Overdue: The total count of incomplete requirements past their effective date within the selected timeframe.  

Total Tasks Overdue: Total number of tasks not completed and past their due date within the selected date range.

Regulatory compliance in healthcare is complex and ever-changing. There’s a steady stream of new and updated federal and state regulations that organizations have to stay on top of. Also, from CMS updates to accreditation standards, managing compliance across multiple departments is a significant challenge.   

Enter the Regulatory Lifecycle Management Maturity Model (RL3M): a brand-new framework that helps healthcare organizations assess their readiness to handle regulatory changes.  

The model will help you evaluate where your organization stands in regulatory readiness, and classify you in one of five levels – Initial, Developing, Defined, Managed, or Optimized. It also will offer tips and best practices for meeting regulatory requirements at seven key stages of regulatory lifecycle management:  

• Identifying & Documenting Regulations  
• Assessing Relevance  
• Translating into Business Requirements  
• Communicating to Stakeholders  
• Executing Compliance Activities  
• Monitoring & Validating Activities  
• Demonstrating Compliance  

With the model, organizations will be in a position to reach higher maturity levels – and experience fewer compliance breaches, reduced financial penalties, and greater operational efficiency.  

Take the Self-Assessment below to get started with the RLM Maturity Model.

The youCompli team is looking forward to heading to Boston for the HCAA’s Compliance Institute from April 7-10. The HCAA calls this event the single most comprehensive healthcare compliance conference. That’s why we think it’s a terrific chance to learn more from our colleagues in specialties such as Healthcare Reform, Hospital Physician Alignment, and Compliance Effectiveness.

Why Go to Compliance Institute?

Two of the discussion tracks we anticipate exploring include  “Culture is King: Strategies for Developing and Maintaining a Culture of Ethics and Compliance” and “Can’t We All Just Get Along? Physician Satisfaction and Compliance Are Not Mutually Exclusive In Physician Arrangements.” We’ll be blogging about our impressions of these discussions and other observations at the conference as well. Stay tuned.

In addition, we can’t wait to hear from the incredible lineup of speakers, including, Diana Nyad the first person to swim from Cuba to Florida without the aid of a shark cage, swimming 111 miles in fifty-three hours from Havana to Key West.

 

We also envision learning so much from Renee Baine, with Shriner’s Hospital for Children, who supports many areas, such as research, revenue cycle, and the business associate programs for Shriners Hospital for Children’s twenty-two facilities.

 

Scott Eblin actually wrote a book, Overworked and Overwhelmed, which we’re sure a encapsulates how many of our customers and potential customers feel about their day to day workload. We can’t wait to hear Scott’s advice and message as well.

So you can see why we are excited to listen, learn and showcase how we can help.

Are you planning to attend, too? Let’s meet. We’ll be scheduling 10-minute in-person demo’s of our software at the conference. You can click here to schedule yours, right now.

With youCompli, you and your team can ensure compliance and increase efficiency, so patient care stays front and center, always, no matter how many reg changes come your way. Isn’t this the key reason why we choose to work in healthcare in the first place?
