Effectively managing your patient population requires the ability to quickly identify specific groups based on clinical data, account status, or demographics. Within the Glooko Population Tracker, you can use enhanced filtering tools and the Cohorts add-on to streamline your clinical workflows.
Filtering and Segmenting Patients
The View Patients tab in the Population Tracker includes a filter panel designed to support various clinic needs.
Using Quick Filters
At the top of your patient list, you can use Quick Filters to instantly access high-priority segments:
Cohorts*: View patients within your saved custom segments.
Tags: Filter by specific tags previously created by your clinic.
Duplicate Accounts*: Identify potential duplicate patient records (Admin only).
The "All Filters" Menu
Clicking the All Filters button allows you to refine your list using the following criteria:
At-Risk Status: Filter by predefined Glucose Risk Categories, such as "High Extreme Lows" or "Large Drop in TIR". You can hover over a category to see its specific definition and thresholds.
Account Management: Filter by Glooko Patient Account Status (Activated, Invite Pending, or Not Invited) or by the Account Creation date range.
Cleanup: Filter for Duplicate Accounts* or patients with No EHR Link*.
Devices: Segment by Last Sync date or Device Category (e.g., CGM, Insulin Pump).
Care Management: Filter by assigned Provider or Care Programs.
Demographics: Filter by Diabetes Type and Age.
Once you have selected your criteria, click Apply to refresh the list. Note that applied filters will not persist after you log out of Glooko.
Creating Patient Cohorts (Add-on Feature)
For clinics with the Cohorts subscription, you can save specific filter sets for recurring use. This allows for more personalized interventions and automated population analysis.
For example, you can save a cohort for patients aged 10–18 with a Time in Range of less than 50% over the last 7 days.
How to Create a New Cohort
Navigate to the Settings page from the top-right menu.
Scroll down to the Cohorts section and click Create Cohort.
Select your desired filters and click Next.
Enter a Name and Description for the cohort, then click Save.
Managing and Using Cohorts
Visibility: All users in a clinic can view and use created cohorts, but only the creator and clinic admins can edit or delete them.
Patient Identification: A Cohorts column will appear in the Patient List. Additionally, if a patient meets a cohort's criteria, their name will be flagged with the cohort name on the Patient Summary Page.
Exporting: To generate a report, apply a cohort filter and click Export to CSV in the top right of the patient list.
Note: The Cohorts filter is an add-on feature and is only visible if it has been added to your clinic's subscription. No EHR Link filters are only available for clinics with an active EHR integration.
