Case Study

From outcomes to action: Provider Outcomes Report example

How ChatCME generated a provider-ready outcomes report that surfaced what clinicians needed, what content they verified, and what to fix next—all while keeping accredited CME independence intact.

De-identified case study. Activity details have been generalized to protect provider and learner privacy.

Activity snapshot

  • Format: Enduring online activity with slide deck + video
  • Therapeutic area: Cardiovascular medicine (adult immunization and cardiovascular risk)
  • Audience: Predominantly physicians, with pharmacist and nurse/APN participation
  • Reporting window: Late 2025 to early 2026 (in progress)

The challenge

The accredited provider wanted more than completion metrics. They needed to:

  • Help clinicians get fast, verifiable answers inside the activity
  • Understand what learners actually asked (in their own words)
  • Measure evidence engagement (what learners opened and revisited)
  • Identify operational friction (e.g., repeated “Where are the slides?” requests)
  • Produce an exportable outcomes report for QA cycles

What ChatCME delivered

Citation-first learning

Answers with citations tied to exact slide or timestamp. Learners could verify claims immediately within the activity.

Outcomes analytics

Aggregated participation, evidence use, and question themes. Clear visibility into what learners engaged with most.

Provider Outcomes Report

Report with clear actions for mid-campaign implementation. Designed for QA review and continuous improvement.

Evidence hotspots

Content areas where learners most frequently opened citations to verify answers

  • Mechanism content: Infection → inflammation → cardiovascular events
  • Vaccination as prevention: Vaccination as a “pillar” in cardiovascular care
  • Guidelines and tools: Guideline framing and implementation tools

Theme mining

Patterns identified from learner questions across all sessions

Implementation + counseling

Questions about workflow integration, patient communication, and practical guidance for clinical settings.

Safety framing

Benefit–risk concerns and how to discuss safety profiles with patients.

Operational friction

Slides access friction—repeated “Where can I download slides?” requests signaling a UX gap.

Recommended actions

Actionable improvements surfaced by the Provider Outcomes Report

1

Add resource links

Add a “Slides & Resources” link group to reduce repeated access questions.

2

Update system prompt

Standardize slide-download responses in the system prompt for consistent handling.

3

Publish quick-reference

Create a one-page quick-reference tool based on top learner questions.

Methods

  • Data handling: De-identified and aggregated analytics. No individual learner data exposed.
  • Theme mining: Uses deduped question clusters to identify patterns without double-counting similar queries.
  • Independence preserved: No learner-level reporting to commercial supporters. Provider retains full control.
