Health Care Reports

One of the major strengths of Therap’s health information tracking system is its powerful reporting features. A good example of this is Therap Health Care Reports which aggregate and summarize health information from different sections of the Health Tracking application (e.g. vital signs, height/weight, respiratory problems, medication history, lab test reports etc.), as well as other modules such as General Event Reports and Individual Data. Here are some of the useful features supported by the report –

Flexible parameters
The report supports flexible options to select date range and select report sections. Report sections may include some or all of the health tracking records.



Clean summarized view

All information is arranged neatly in simple, tables.

Printable PDF format
The reports can be viewed and saved in printer friendly PDF format.

Saving for later use

Care Plans in Therap 2012.0

Among the applications we have recently released in beta (due for production release in mid January) is the Individual Care Plan module. This is one of the applications we have developed to meet our CCHIT goals – we plan on being fully CCHIT compliant by mid 2012.

As the name suggests the module is designed to more efficiently document and manage individualized care plans by tracking problems, goals, and approaches to meet those goals. Notable application features include –

  • The ability to add review comments and team meeting notes
  • Ability to discontinue care plans once goals are achieved
  • Ability to create and publish Care Plan Templates for approval and save the templates in a Global Template Library
  • Notifications for Care Plan Template authors when care plan templates are published
