CareConnect RWB Reports

Reporting Workbench (RWB) is the operational reporting tool that analysts and end-users use to provide real-time, actionable reports

Reporting Workbench reports are written from Reporting Workbench templates, which define the available data a particular report can search and return. CareConnect application teams (including clinical, billing, and front-end applications) release Reporting Workbench templates for end users. It is possible for the CareConnect teams to modify a Reporting Workbench template or even to create a new one, allowing for a great deal of flexibility within operational reporting. All users with CareConnect access will have access to Reporting Workbench. 

Because Reporting Workbench is integrated into CareConnect, users can take action on the results of a Reporting Workbench report. For example, a Reporting Workbench report on patients may be configured to allow a clinical user to flag a group of patients with a health maintenance modifier, something the user would not be able to do with a Crystal report written from Clarity.
