Filter Recipes

As mentioned in the Overview and Strategy article, there are many, many possible combinations of filter settings, and what you choose depends on what results you want in the table. In this section, we are going to propose an objective along with filter settings that will give you those results in the Explore page table.

If you are not using an already established default location, your first step for each recipe will always be to set up the location filter. For basic setup instructions, see The Location Filter.

Recipe 1 - Objective: Evaluate and Compare performance of "My Agencies"

Location Filter - For this recipe, you may or may not want to use a limited region for the results. The filter we will use will show every skilled nursing facility in your company. If you want to see all SNFs in your company, don't use the location filter. If you want to limit the list to your facilities in a defined region, then you can set the location filter to a more limited region.
Click the the "My Agency" toggle to the "on" position. This will limit the SNFs in the table to your facilities.

This allows you to compare patient counts and performance metrics for your facilities.

Recipe 2 - Find all skilled nursing facilities in a chosen region

Confirm the location filter settings for your region of interest
Click on the "Apply Filters" button

This will allow you to compare your own skilled nursing facility to all other facilities in the selected region.
