6.  PERFORMING AN ELECTRONIC CHART REVIEW

b.  Uploading the Data File to the WebAudit 

Now that you have a data file (refer to preceding Section 6a for creating the file), you need to bring it into the WebAudit for data cleaning and report generation.  How is that done?  Easy.  Follow the steps below.  

For further information and WebAudit FAQs, visit the IHS Division of Diabetes website at:
http://www.ihs.gov/MedicalPrograms/Diabetes/index.cfm?module=resourcesAuditConducting 

 

1. Request and activate a WebAudit account if you do not already have one.  
2. Log in to the WebAudit, using your user name and password.  
3. Select “Diabetes WebAudit Facility Administration” from the Applications List.  If you don't see this item in the list, contact the WebAudit team at ddtpwebauditadmins@ihs.gov to request access.
4. Select "Enter Facility Information"
5. Enter the number of active patients in your diabetes register that meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria and whether your community receives SDPI funds.  If it does receive funds, provide the Grant Number, also known as an Award Number, which can be found in item 3 in the Notice of Award for your SDPI funds.
6. Click the "Save" button.
7. Return to the Main Menu and select "Diabetes WebAudit" from the Applications list.
8. Click on the  "Upload Data" button.  
9. Click on the “Browse..” button and navigate to your data file (.rec file), then click on “Open”.  
10. When the .rec file has been selected, click on "Upload".
11.

If the upload of the data file is successful, you will receive a message on the screen telling you that the file was successfully uploaded.  You will also receive an email confirmation. 

If the upload is unsuccessful, you will receive an on-screen message telling you that the file upload attempt was unsuccessful, with a brief description of the problem.  

12.

Once the file has been successfully uploaded, you may proceed with checking the data quality (see Section 7) and/or producing reports (see Section 8).
