Export Duty Hours to New Innovations

jaymin

Hey Olivier, many if not all of the Internal Medicine programs have to report duty hours on a system called New Innovations (ACGME rule). It's quite cumbersome for both residents to fill out these hours and for administration to pre-select their hours for entry so that they can then later edit and approve. Compliance is usually terrible and cause of great strife on the part of the administration. You current duty hour tally is great but not useful if we then have to report it via New Innovation for ACGME. Is there anyway we could export duty hours to New Innovations for each resident so that it could speed up duty hour entry and thereby augment accuracy & compliance?

Hi Jaymin,

I'm interested in helping you with this.

Does New Innovations have a data import function? If so what format does it expect?

What level of detail do you need to report?

I could make it so you can export the stats table (the grid that contains all the Tally Results, Requests, and Duty Hour Rule results when you are editing the schedule) to a spreadsheet. Would that help?
