Status Changes Report
Run the Status Changes report to obtain a list of patients who have had a change in status during the period of time you specify. The report includes the patient's old status, new status, date of the change, and the amount of time that was spent in the old status. You may run the report for specific statuses, or include patients in all statuses in the report. You may choose to run the report for an individual doctor and/or office, or include all orthodontists and offices on the report. If you have Edge Specialist, you can include patients from a specific specialty, or include all specialties in the results.
Report Data Source
This report gets its data from the patients' Status History, which compiles data from the dates you edit the Status field of the Patient Information Panel. See "Patient Status History" for details.
Open the Report
Select Reporting from the Reporting section of the Home ribbon bar. Then from the Patient section, open the Status Changes report. You can double-click the report name, or click Run at the top of the window to continue. (You can also use the Search field to find the report you want to work with.) You might also be able to run this report or form from your Recent Reports or Quick Reports list. See "Run Edge Cloud Reports" for details.
Report Settings
Select the options to use for choosing records and generating this report. Choose carefully, as your selections will affect which patients are included in the report. (If the settings panel is not visible, click the Show/Hide icon in the upper left corner of the Reporting window.)
Start / End Dates - Enter the range of dates to include on this report, or select a single date for both the Start Date and End Date fields to run the report for an individual date. You can type a date in the fields, or click the calendar icon to select a date. Your selected date or date range will appear just under the report title when you view your report; if you select a date that is not today, this date will be different than the run date that appears in the report header.
Specialty - If you have Edge Specialist, you can choose to include only records for a specific specialty, or include the records for all specialties in your practice.
Old Statuses - Choose to include only the patients who changed out of certain statuses (such as "Observation"), or include all old status descriptions on the report.
New Statuses - Choose to include only patients that were changed into certain statuses (such as "Active"), or include all new status descriptions on the report.
Office - Choose to include only the records for a specific office, or include the records for all office locations in your practice.
Orthodontist / Doctor - Choose to include only the records for a specific orthodontist / doctor, or include the records for all orthodontists in your practice.
Subgroup - You can optionally choose a subgroup to use to narrow the records to include on the report. Only records that fit your selected subgroup as well as all other report settings will be included. If you use a subgroup, the report will display the name of your selected subgroup just under the report name, so you know which criteria was used to generate the results. See "Subgroup Editor" for details.about creating subgroups.
View Report Results
If needed, click View at the top of the report settings panel to view the results on your screen. When you run a report or form from your Recent Report list, or when you run a Quick Report, the initial results are sent to your screen immediately, with one exception: A Quick Report that has the Print Only option enabled will not show your results on the screen at all, but continue with the printing options. You can use the arrows in the View section of the ribbon bar to view additional pages of a multiple-page report. You can also use the dropdown button or type a number in the zoom field to change the size of the report in your window.
Report Title & Header
Whether you view the report on your screen or print it, the report title and run date appear in the header of each report page. If you used subgrouping or other report options, that information appears just under the report title so you know which criteria was used to generate the results.
