What Is Project DataPACT?

DataPACT turns the data already in your EHR into a monthly, provider-level care-gap report — so the right patient gets the right care, at the point of care.

Finds the gaps

Surfaces the patients who are overdue for guideline-indicated care and monitoring — before they fall through the cracks.

Four GI disease states

Inflammatory Bowel Disease MASLD / MASH Cirrhosis Eosinophilic Esophagitis

Delivered to your practice

A monthly report from the PPS team — baseline-to-current progress on every measure — emailed to your practice manager and lead physician. No new system, nothing to build.

Same chart. Same visit.  The report tells you who needs what — you make the call at the point of care.

HOW IT WORKS · THE DATA PATHWAY

How the Data Gets to PPS

Every metric starts as discrete data you already capture in gGastro — it flows to PPS, and comes back as your report.

1

You document

Coded diagnoses, labs, scopes & procedures (CPT), meds and visits — captured as discrete fields in gGastro.

2

Flows to the EDW

That structured data feeds the PPS data warehouse (Snowflake) automatically — no extra step for you.

3

Scored vs KPIs

Every active patient measured against guideline KPIs — a global view of your population on the PPS dashboard.

4

Report + list

Care gaps and baseline-to-current progress emailed to your practice — and PPS can pull the exact patients.

It runs on discrete data.  The structured, coded fields you already enter (not free-text notes) are what PPS can see — it's the documentation you already do, it just has to land in the right field to count.

WHAT PPS MEASURES

The KPI Scoreboard

Every disease state is scored on the same four kinds of measures. Hover a category to see where it shows up.

IBDINFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASE

Patient Attrition
Lab Adherence: CBC, CMP, CRP, fecal calprotectin
Colonoscopy Completion for Patients on Advanced Therapy
Advanced Therapy Treatment Rate for High-Risk Patients
Crohn's Patients on Mesalamine (lower is better)
CCM / PCM Enrollment Rate

MASLD / MASHMETABOLIC LIVER DISEASE

Patient Attrition
Lab Adherence: CBC, CMP
Elastography Completion Rate
Rezdiffra Treatment Rate
GLP-1 Treatment Rate
CCM / PCM Enrollment Rate

CirrhosisCHRONIC LIVER DISEASE

Patient Attrition
Lab Adherence: CBC, CMP, AFP, PT/INR
HCC Imaging Screening Adherence Rate
NSBB Treatment Rate for Varices
Hepatic Encephalopathy Treatment Rate
CCM / PCM Enrollment Rate

EoEEOSINOPHILIC ESOPHAGITIS

Patient Attrition
Follow-Up EGD after Initiation of Therapy
Timing of Follow-Up EGD after Initiation of Therapy
Medication Therapy Treatment Rate (PPI, STCS, Dupilumab)
CCM / PCM Enrollment Rate

From the PPS Quality of Care Initiatives program materials. One nuance to teach: Crohn's on mesalamine is the one measure where lower is better — it comes back in the DFW spotlight.

AT THE POINT OF CARE

The Pathways Live Where You Work

The pathways live in the gGastro links menu — a ready reference, one click from any chart.

1

Click Refs — the globe button — from any chart to open the pathways menu.

2

Evidence-based pathways for all four disease states in one place — plus FIB-4 and the IBD guides.

!

A reference, not an integration — a “poster on the wall” in gGastro. It's there when you look; it won't prompt you on its own.

So knowing the KPIs matters — that's what today is for. And PPS can hand you the list of patients falling through the cracks.

THE FOUR PATHWAYS

One Pathway per Disease State

Each pathway turns a guideline into a decision you can make in the room. Click a card to see the full pathway.

IBD

  • 5-ASA · advanced-therapy
  • steroid guides · checklist
  • + patient intake form
DRIVESRight therapy · monitoring labs · surveillance colonoscopy

MASLD / MASH

  • FIB-4 risk score
  • elastography referral
  • early fibrosis staging
DRIVESRisk-stratify · screen for fibrosis early

Cirrhosis

  • guideline surveillance
  • lab monitoring
  • co-management
DRIVESHCC surveillance · decompensation watch

EoE

  • treatment initiation
  • follow-up EGD (per KPI)
  • histologic response
DRIVESConfirm the treatment is working

Same evidence base, four times over — so the pathway, not memory, drives the next order.

THE EVIDENCE

The Pilot Proved It

A pilot used a novel IBD dashboard in PPS Analytics to assess real-time practice performance across six community-based GI practices in four states — representing 9,000+ active IBD patients.

0%
reduction in patient attrition
0%
increase in fecal calprotectin testing
0%
increase in colonoscopy completion
0%
increase in advanced-therapy treatment rate for high-risk patients

…and it established the national baseline of care expectations for community-based GI practices — the yardstick every DataPACT report now uses.

PPS ANALYTICS · ON DEMAND

Ask PPS for the List

PPS Analytics can slice your population eight different ways — so the answer to “which patients?” is one ask away. You never build the list.

Appointments
Recalls
Medications
Procedures
Labs
Imaging
Provider
Insurance

REAL PULLS PPS CAN HAND YOU

  • Patients without a return appointment scheduled
  • Age 45+ with no colonoscopy
  • Patients with overdue recalls
  • Lab trends — e.g. rising fecal calprotectin or CRP
  • Medication trends — e.g. 2+ biologics on the med list
  • Infusion patients to track
  • Diagnostic & therapeutic candidates per disease state
  • Research — clinical-trial candidates

The monthly report says how you're doing — these pulls tell you exactly who to call.

PUTTING IT INTO ACTION

Where You Turn Data Into Care

The report lands with your manager — and PPS can pull the exact patients falling through the cracks. Three moves, all at the point of care.

1

Reengage

Bring lapsed patients back for the annual visit — and the overdue scope that comes with it.

2

Close the gaps

Order the calprotectin, CRP and labs. Schedule surveillance. Enroll eligible patients in CCM.

3

Right therapy

Get high-risk patients on advanced therapy. Step Crohn's off ineffective 5-ASA. The pathway guides the call.

IT ALREADY WORKS 0

captured services from reengagement in our first live division — visits, colonoscopies, EGDs and elastography — with no added physician work.

THE ASK

You Are Where Data Becomes Care

GIA has the tool.  DataPACT is already finding your care gaps — every month, in the chart you already use.
Work the list.  The report says who — the pathway, one click away, says what.
Get involved.  Ask for your practice’s report — and put your hand up to champion DataPACT at your site.
Better care.   Stronger practices.   No guesswork.
