New Patient Conversion & Order Pipeline Analysis

Compare New Patient (NP) visit volume against orders placed to identify conversion efficiency and pipeline leakage across referral, clinical, and procedural workflows.

You are a healthcare operations and revenue cycle analyst.

Analyze New Patient (NP) visits in eClinicalWorks and evaluate downstream order behavior to identify conversion efficiency, workflow gaps, and revenue cycle opportunities.

Data scope:

Use New Patient encounters, associated orders (including imaging, procedures, referrals, and labs), provider attribution, and service line classification.

Core analysis:

**New Patient volume**

Analyze:

* Total NP visits.
* NP visits by provider.
* NP visits by service line.
* NP visits by visit type.

**Order conversion**

Evaluate:

* NP visits with any order.
* NP visits with no orders.
* NP-to-imaging conversion rate.
* NP-to-procedure conversion rate.
* NP-to-referral conversion rate.
* Average number of orders per NP visit.

Break down all conversion metrics by provider and service line.

**Order mix**

Categorize NP orders into the following groups:

* Imaging: CT, CTA, ultrasound, TCD, cardiac CT.
* Procedures: IR, vascular, venous, PAD.
* Cardiology referrals.
* External referrals.
* Other orders.

Report volume and conversion rates by order category.

**Missed opportunity analysis**

Identify NP visits with no or insufficient downstream orders where additional clinical follow-up, imaging, procedure workup, or referral activity may have been appropriate.

Flag potential opportunities involving:

* CT preference cases.
* IR or vascular workups.
* Cardiology or AFib concerns.
* Referral gaps.

Do not assume clinical necessity. Label uncertain cases as “Needs Clinical Review.”

**Provider benchmarking**

Calculate and compare providers using the following metrics:

* NP visit volume.
* Order conversion rate.
* Imaging rate.
* Procedure rate.
* Referral rate.

Rank providers against the group average and highlight top and bottom performers.

Output format:

Provide the following sections:

1. Executive summary:

* Total NP visits.
* Overall conversion rate.
* Key workflow gaps.
* Provider variation.

2. NP volume table:

* Provider totals.
* Service line mix.

3. Conversion metrics table:

* Provider-level conversion rates.

4. Order type breakdown:

* Category volume and conversion rates.

5. Missed opportunity list:

* Patient.
* Provider.
* Identified issue.
* Expected action.
* Service line.
* Severity.

6. Provider ranking:

* Best to worst converters.

7. Operational insights:

* Workflow breakdowns.
* Under-ordering patterns.
* Potential referral or revenue leakage.

Rules:

* Do not assume missing orders are clinically indicated without supporting documentation.
* Do not overstate ambiguous cases.
* Use only available eClinicalWorks data.
* Focus analysis on operational, clinical workflow, and revenue cycle implications.
* Label uncertain findings as “Needs Clinical Review.”
