Past Events
mTuitive Virtual Event 2021
Date: November 17, 2021
mTuitive's annual Virtual Event returned with more information about synoptic reporting for pathology, surgery, and other fields. mTuitive staff and guests provided advanced training on our synoptic pathology reporting solutions, reviewed the process for finessing standards into usable solutions by and for physicians, and discussed how new surgical reporting requirements will impact multiple departments at your facility (especially pathology). There were Q&A's and chances to follow-up with speakers for further discussions.
The virtual event was split up into three sessions - two for 30 minutes, one for 60 minutes. If you missed it (or want to revisit it) you can request recordings by contacting Julie Czesnowski at julie@mtuitive.com. You can request one, two, or all three as you wish. If you have any questions, then please contact us here.

​
Session 1: Additional Training on CAP eFRM/xPert For Pathology
1:30 - 2pm ET
​
mTuitive's Dan Faasse and John Everson will provide helpful tips and tricks to get the most from your mTuitive pathology reporting experience. A look at some shortcuts, common issues, and providing answers to your FAQs.
​
Session 2: Session 2: Validating Synoptic Reporting Standards with Lilli Everson, Dr. Duke MD, and Eric Daley, MS, PA (ASCP)CM of College of American Pathologists
2:15pm - 3:15pm ET
Medical organizations and facilities are constantly putting out new standards for synoptic reporting for physicians. But how does it go from a spreadsheet or PDF into an electronic reporting solution where structured data is captured accurately and efficiently? mTuitive's Lilli Everson will be joined by Dr. Wayne Duke MD of Baystate Health and Eric Daley MS, PA (ASCP)CM of CAP to discuss their experiences going from protocol to usable software solution. Lilli provides insight into mTuitive's rigorous validation process for each CAP eCC release and revision, CSSP templates, and other reporting standards—including several rounds of authoring, testing, and discussion—to arrive at an electronic synoptic report that avoids redundancy and errors.

​
Session 3: Cancer Surgery Standards Protocols And You
3:30pm - 4pm ET
The American College of Surgeons' Commission On Cancer is only a few months away from going live with requiring Cancer Surgery Standards Protocols (CSSP) at all CoC accredited hospitals. mTuitive's Project Coordinator Rob Dean and Clinical Knowledge Engineer Eric Nowicki will go over these requirements, how they directly involve and impact pathologists as well as surgeons, and show how mTuitive is working with multiple systems like Cerner, Epic, MEDITECH, and more to help your facility maintain compliance.

How To Use Pathology Synoptic Reporting To Improve Patient Care
Date: March 24th, 2021
Time: 2:30 - 3:30pm Eastern
​
mTuitive is proud to present a webinar with Brigette Rabel, Synoptic Reporting Provincial Coordinator for British Columbia about how structured data from synoptic reporting can improve patient care. Discrete data from pathology synoptic checklists maintained by mTuitive feeds into BC’s own Central Data Repository (CDR).
​
With this data, BC developed individual dashboards for pathologists and surgeons to display a set of quality metrics specific to their practices. Using the dashboard, the pathologist or surgeon can see how their results compare against averages for their facility, their health authority, and the province as a whole. BC also created a set of quality metrics to monitor the consistency of reporting across the province.
Brigette will give an overview of how BC transformed a large tumour dataset into actionable metrics for both pathologists and surgeons.
Speakers

Everything You Always Wanted To Know About Surgical Synoptic Reporting*
*but were too afraid to ask
Date: June 22, 2022
Time: 2:30pm - 3:30 pm Eastern Time
Covering American College of Surgeons' Commission on Cancer new reporting standards. The Cancer Surgery Standards Program (CSSP) requires synoptic reporting from surgeons for specific disease sites. But what does CSSP mean from a practical stance?
In this webinar we will discuss:
-
What is Surgical Synoptic Reporting?
-
Why is Surgical Synoptic Reporting?
-
How will CSSP affect your accreditation by Commission On Cancer?
-
How should it be integrated into current workflows?
Join mTuitive's Rob Dean and special guests to cover these topics as well as take any questions you may have. No matter what solution you are using to comply, we will explore how the reporting will work and best practices for using Epic, Across Health, mTuitive OpNote, or other programs at your facility.
