Question about API workflow

[aaldrich]

I'm trying to use the API's to pass Cypress Validation. I'm getting some issues where the Cat 3 file that is generated doesn't include the expected results. I have a successful working scenario using just the test data. The issue when it doesn't work is when I load in patients using Cat 1 files we generate and feed in. I'm thinking the issue is with our Cat 1 generation but before I go down that path, I would appreciate some advice that I'm following the process correctly.

Scenario that works:

1. Load in 2017 Measures via rake task pophealth:download_update_install
2. Load Test data from Cypress via API call to api/admin/patients
3. Calculate Measures via API call to /api/queries
4. Wait for calculate to finish
5. Generate Cat 3 file via API call to /api/reports/*qrda_cat3.xml passing in the measure id's
6. Generate Cat 1 file via API call to /api/reports/*cat1.zip

Scenario that doesn't work

1. Load in 2017 Measures via rake task pophealth:download_update_install
2. Create records in our system from the Cypress test data
3. Generate Cat 1 files from our system and load into Pophealth via API call to api/patients
4. Calculate Measures via API call to /api/queries
5. Wait for calculate to finish
6. Generate Cat 3 file via API call to /api/reports/*qrda_cat3.xml passing in the measure id's
7. Generate Cat 1 file via API call to /api/reports/*cat1.zip

Is the above workflow what is recommended? And if so, are there recommendations on generating and validating the Cat 1 files to feed into Pophealth?

Thanks for your help.

The workflow looks correct. When the measure results are different, you’ll have look the patient data and see why a patient isn’t in the initial patient population, or the numerator / denominator category. There are usually a set of rather complex logic rules keyed on the various elements of the patient data to determine which category a given patient belongs to. There are logs in the popHealth that can be enabled to support the examination of the logic behind the decisions made for each patient for a given measure. Let me know if you interested.

@petercyli Thank you for the response. The logs would be great. I think that is where I need to focus my effort, in trying to figure out if the data I'm feeding in is correct. So anything you can think of that could help me in that effort would be very much appreciated.
