Improve Residency Programs with Cielo Clinic^TM

Assists Physicians in Evaluating Residents

Typically, a physician measures, monitors and assesses a resident's care delivery performance by reviewing patient charts. This is a time- and resource-consuming task for both the practice and the physician.

With Cielo Clinic, a physician can instantly generate reports to provide that same information. These reports document care delivery while highlighting areas where residents may be falling short. For a residency program, Cielo Clinic provides:

• Documentation of patient populations, including population size, problem and disease spectrum and demographics such as age and gender
• Data for patient care audits including resident actions taken and care provided
• Reporting on a resident's patient visit volume and visit efficiency
• Detailed information on the clinical quality status of the resident's patient population

• Instruction in evidence-based guideline delivery for prevention, screening and chronic disease management and in applying evidence to patient care
