Colors and Symbols

The Fusion CAC 2 application contains a variety of colors and symbols. The following guide provides a detailed explanation of the significance associated with each color and symbol.

Top Right Corner (Any Screen)

The ? icon represents the help menu where users can find the user guide, hot keys configured per organization, and more.This menu can include customized links for each organization. If this functionality is needed, contact cacsupport@dolbey.com to log a ticket.

Dashboards

Most of the blue text on the dashboard is a clickable link. When clicked, it will open a new tab into a pop out with the details behind the number. Some numbers, such as percentage rates or averages, will not yield pop out results.

Banner Bar

Symbol/Color	Meaning
ROM/SOI	Red numbers mean that the ROM or SOI is high (either a 3 or a 4)
LOS Information	Green indicates there are still days left in the patient stay Red means they have exceeded the days.
DRG	A red DRG means that a mismatch occurred where the CDI and coder do not match. The exact DRG may be different, or if the DRGs are the same the DRG weight is different. This can occur on APR-DRGs. If the DRG is green it means the DRG’s matched.

Navigation Tree

The viewer name will turn red to alert the user that action is needed.

Code Summary

Symbol/Color	Meaning
Blue/Red Circles Containing Numbers	These circles with numbers next to each code are the Risk of Mortality (ROM) and Severity of Illness (SOI) which can be values 1-4, this information comes from the APR-DRG which is a priority grouper licensed from Solventum GPCS.
P Icon	Indicates the diagnosis is a principal
Numbers in Visit Reason Section	Indicates the position number of visit reason

Validation Results

Red: Validation hard stop used to notify a user that there are things that they need to resolve. It does prevent the user from submitting the chart.

Yellow: This color is associated with validation soft stop used to notify a user that there may be things that they need to resolve. It does not prevent the user from submitting the chart.

Physicians & Queries

The “Physicians & Queries” viewer will be highlighted with an amber background in the Navigation tree if the account has at least one physician query.

The viewer will turn brown to indicate there are open queries awaiting a response.

Charges

The caution symbol next to the left of the code is a edit that comes from the TruCode encoder or add on edits. If you hoover over the caution symbol you can see the edit, if you need a larger view of the edit you can open the TruCode research page for further details.

CDI/Clinical Alerts

The paper icon allows users to click to enter notes to indicate thoughts on the CDI Alert.

Audit Worksheet

Symbol/Color	Meaning
Red Title	Indicates an open audit
Brown Title	Indicates a closed audit
Astrisk	Indicates a required field
P Icon	Indicates the diagnosis is a principal
Numbers in Visit Reason Section	Indicates the position number of visit reason
Speech Bubble	Allows auditors to enter in notes next to any of the codes or items getting audited on the coder or auditor tree
Blue Background	Accuracy rate lines have a blue background, so they stand out.

Documents Tree

Symbol/Color	Meaning
Paper Icon	Text based document and may be eligible to receive code suggestions.
Camera Icon	Scanned document and is not eligible to receive code suggestions.
Pink Text	Late arriving documentation. These documents were not accessible during the coding process as they were added to the patient chart after submission.
Black Background	The document has been archived, meaning it was removed or replaced on the account. The end user had already added codes or bookmarks on the document.
Red Text	Search results were found on the document.
Grey Circle with Number	Displays the umber of instances the searched word/phrase is within the document.
Square with Arrow	Indicates the user can pop out the document(s) into a separate tab. Document Pop Out Square
Aqua Background	Indicates the document has been popped out into a different tab.

Documents Tree

Words/Phrases and Codes can be highlighted in few different colors:

Symbol/Color	Meaning
Bright Yellow	The user clicked on the code from the Unassigned or Show All code tree linking to the code location within the document. It can also turn yellow if the user uses the search feature to search on a word or phrase.
Green Highlight	The code is validated by an end users on a different document. This allows the end user on subsequent documents to quickly see what was already validated. Green is also used by CDI/Clinical Alerts which highlights words and phrases used to pull details out to link to text for clinical evidence for CDI/Clinical Alerts.
Caution Yellow	Identifies caution codes which indicates when the system suggests codes that are flagged as cautionary. Caution codes are applied to documents that the management team has identified as requiring careful consideration. These cautionary documents enable the system to suggest codes that may not be present on provider-facing or codable documents. It’s important to note that these codes cannot be validated from these documents alone. example: If a nurse mentions that a patient was treated for respiratory failure, but there is no mention of it by the provider, the caution code serves as a reminder to ensure that no relevant information is overlooked. It acts as a safety net to capture potential discrepancies or omissions in the documentation process.
Green Paper Icon	A bookmark has been added by an end user. Hovering over this icon will display the associated note. Alternatively, users can go to notes & bookmarks within the navigation tree you can see all that were placed.
Green Flag	Displayed next to the code within the document and on the show all or unassigned code tree to indicate there is a comment on a code. The code comment can also be found on the notes & bookmarks under the navigation tree within the code comment section.
Blue Background	indicates a diagnosis code
Red Background	indicates a procedure code

Code Tree

Symbol/Color	Meaning
H Icon	Indicates that the code is a HCC
MCC	Indicates that the code is a MCC
CC	Indicates that the code is a CC
HAC	Returned upon computing for the MS-DRG, this indicates that the code is an HAC.
NOR	Indicates the procedure code is a non-OR procedure.
Tag	Returned upon computing for the MS-DRG, this indicates that the code is responsible for one of the following quality measures PSI, PDI, PC-06 or Elixhauser.
Purple Background on Assigned Codes	There are more than 25 codes and any code in purple is below the the 25th position. This is important since CMS only accepts 25 diagnosis codes in the event you need to consider resequencing codes that need to be above the 25th position.
Exclamation Icon	Will appear on the “Show All” tree when a user manually entered this code and the system suggested it.
Person Icon	A user manually entered this code. It was not suggested by the application. Hovering over the icon will display the user who added it.
Caution Symbol	An edit that comes from the TruCode encoder or add on edits. If you hover over the caution symbol you can see the edit. Users needing a larger view of the edit can open the TruCode research page for further details.
Green Flag	In the “Show All” or “Unassigned” code tree, the presence of a green flag next to a code signifies that there is a comment associated with that particular code. This same flag can also be found alongside the code within a document and in the notes & bookmarks section under the Navigation tree within the code comment section.
Pencil Icon	Exclusively available for non-TruCode organizations. It allows end users to manually input a code into the encoder using the compute button. This signifies that there is no direct association between the code and any specific location on a document.
Letter Blocks	Indicates the present on admission (POA) status. When clicked the end user can change the status to the following: Y = Yes N = No U = Undefined W = Withdrawal E = Exempt

Tuning Dashboard

The star symbol can be found in the tuning dashboard when clicking on a numbered result. It represents the charts that an user accessed. The tuning team uses this to keep track of the cases they have reviewed vs those they have left to review.
