Assume the parent Organization (HMHB) wants to create one integrated database
for all 50 states. The central office is the Organization (HMHB) and fifty Agencies
are the states: Alabama HMHB, Arkansas HMHB, etc. Each state has a number of
Facilities (counties): Honolulu County, Maui County, etc. Each Facility has a number
of Departments (Services): Honolulu, Windward Oahu, North Shore, etc. Each
Department has a number of Locations: Downtown, Kalihi, etc. Finally, each Location
has a number of providers.
In the above scenario, there are users at different levels that need to see/be
able to manipulate data appropriate to their function. For example, the person
in charge of the entire HMHB organization would want to see reports like the
one shown below.
Given the same scenario, the person in charge of (the state of) Hawaii HMHB would
only have an indirect interest in the above report. The chief of Hawaii HMHB would
likely be more interested in a report like the following.
On the other hand, the person in charge of Maui HMHB would be
interested in a report like the following.
Finally, the head of the Kahului Office would likely be interested
in reports like the following.
PsyTrace can accommodate the needs of the above sample enterprise (HMHB)
as follows.
-
One database is placed on a central server. The server will be the
database server for all HMHBs in all 50 States.
-
One user is given system level access and allowed to define the
Organization, Agencies (states), Facilities (counties), Departments, Locations,
and users.
-
The System level user is also allowed to indicate which users have permission to
log into which Facilities/Service Departments (some users may be allowed to
provide services in more than one facility).
-
The capture of data by Service/Facility/Agency/Organization allows for
the generation of reports like the ones shown above. PsyTrace provides
a number of reports pre-defined. For example, the Facility and Service
chiefs can obtain a graph of Encounters per month with a few clicks of
the mouse. The Agency chief can obtain the same graph for all facilities
with a few clicks of the mouse. The user given access to the financial
menu can see the same reports with dollar amounts clearly displayed, as
well as generate insurance billing from the data.
-
The IT expert is given access to the SQL Server database to generate any
reports not provided.
PsyTrace has the flexibility to allow for the alternatives to the scenario presented
and can be configured to provide the best solution for the customer. Our
company will be happy to discuss how to best configure PsyTrace to suit the
needs of your organization.
