The Transition of Care (ToC) Lens now has enhanced support for summarizing and displaying admitting and emergency location information, including associated date and time within the EpisodeOfCare resources.

The extension admittingLocation shall provide the location of the latest inpatient (IMP) encounter from the group of aggregated encounters comprising the ToC Lens. This extension ignores IMP encounters with no location or no hospitalization.reAdmission field. It also includes the admission time for that encounter using the period start:

{  
  "url": "<https://zusapi.com/lens/extension/admittingLocation">  
  "extension": [  
    {  
      "url": "https://zusapi.com/lens/extension/admittingLocation",  
      "valueReference": {  
        "display": "General Health",  
        "reference": "Location/8d99aeb1-e35d-4cd9-9ab9-76496420ab59",  
        "type": "Location"  
      }  
    },  
    {  
      "url": "https://zusapi.com/lens/extension/admissionDatetime",  
      "valueDateTime": "2025-04-13 23:33:00Z"  
    }  
  ]  
},

The emergencyLocation extension includes a nested emergencyLocationEndDateTime which contains the period end of the latest emergency encounter in the ToC.

      "url": "https://zusapi.com/lens/extension/emergencyLocation",  
      "valueReference": {  
        "display": "Emergency Department",  
        "reference": "Location/7c80add0-d24c-3bc8-8ce9-65385209li76",  
        "type": "Location"  
      },  
      {

        "valueDateTime": "2025-04-13 19:00:00Z"  
      }  
    }

For users accessing data marts from a Zus-provided Snowflake reader accounts, customers can now create new tables, views, and schemas directly in their reader account.

This new capability will enable customers to:

• More easily define re-usable analytics concepts
  • For example, a data analyst might create a view that lists all patients with a recent HbA1c measure, which they then can refer to in future queries.
• More efficiently migrate data out of Snowflake
  • For example, a user might query five Zus data mart tables to create a custom view. The user can then use a data migration tool (e.g. Fivetran, Airbyte) to migrate just the new view, rather than all five source tables.

To create new tables/views/schemas, customers must use the database [CUSTOMER_NAME], which includes the schema SCRATCH. New schemas can be created in the [CUSTOMER_NAME] database and new tables/views can be created in the SCRATCH schema.

To instructions on how create new tables/views/schemas in Snowflake, please refer to the Snowflake documentation here, here, and here.

For customers leveraging Zus cross-builder grants (e.g. multi-site care providers, business associates or MSOs working with multiple covered-entities), Zus data marts now automatically include data for all patients that a customer has access to. This feature enables these customers to easily analyze data across their full patient population without needing to aggregate data from multiple Zus data marts. This feature is now available to all customers.

We're excited to introduce our new CCD document viewer, designed to make clinical document review faster and more intuitive than ever before. This will be available to all users on May 20, 2025.

What's New

Streamlined Navigation

Navigate complex clinical documents with ease using our improved table of contents. Jump directly to the sections you need without scrolling through lengthy documents.

Clearer Data Display

Clinical information is now presented in a more readable format, with special attention to unstructured data in notes fields. Important details are easier to spot and understand at a glance.

Direct Section Linking

Share specific sections with colleagues instantly. Need to highlight discharge medications or lab results? Generate a direct link to any section within the document for faster collaboration.

Flexible Export Options

Download documents in your preferred format: download a PDF for sharing or the source XML for integrations.

Improved User Experience

We've refined the overall document interaction experience with quality-of-life improvements that make daily workflows smoother and more efficient.

Getting Started

The new CCD viewer is now your default document viewing experience in ZAP. Simply open any CCD document to start exploring the enhanced interface.

Questions or Feedback?

As always, we'd love to hear your thoughts on this update. Contact our support team with any questions or suggestions. Read more about our Document section and the rest of the ZAP in the Clinical Guide.

Risk Adjustment scoring (CMS HCC-RAF for v24 and v28) and recapture identification is now available via Data Marts under Public Preview for existing Data Mart customers! This feature will be rolled out to Data Mart customers beginning April 2, 2025. We expect rollout to be completed by April 15, 2025.

Note that this feature is still under development, and therefore is subject to change, deprecation, or packaging adjustments with limited advanced notice. Please contact Zus Customer Support with feedback or questions.

Beginning April 25th 2025, the Patient History Jobs List endpoint will only return patient history jobs run in the last 1 year by default. Complete request logs can be requested as needed for by contacting Support.

Additionally, we will no longer support job status as a search parameter to list patient history jobs. We do not expect this to impact any current integrations with the Patient History API, but please reach out should you have any questions or encounter any unexpected behavior.

Starting March 17th, the Zus GraphQL API will only support sorting by last_updated for all FHIR resources. The Zus GraphQL API reference has been updated to reflect this new behavior.

Users of the ZAP integration in the athena EMR can now reconcile lab data into the athena chart. Easily select a single lab or several labs to add into the athena. Add these data right into the Lab Results section of the athena chart with a single click!

More reconciliation workflows are on the way as we continue to deepen the interactions available in the embedded ZAP. Up next will be vitals reconciliation and a new user experience allowing for reconciling more data at once, simplifying the workflow of adding data to the chart.

We’ve reimagined the Zus Aggregated Profile (ZAP) to make it even easier to navigate and focus on what matters most — your data. This UI refresh streamlines interactions and optimizes space, making key information clearer and more accessible across both our native app and embedded EHR experiences.

Starting Monday March 17, 2025, users will see the updated ZAP. The rollout will continue through Wednesday gradually enabling the updated experience over the three day period.

This update is driven by your feedback and lays the foundation for even more powerful features to come. To learn more about how to effectively use the ZAP, check out our Clinical Guide.

Try it out and let us know what you think!

We recently identified and resolved an issue where some Athena clinical data may not have been fully backfilled into the Zus platform. This issue did not affect real-time data ingestion, and no data was lost. The impact is that some data synced from Athena would not display the "synced with record" checkmark in the application.

The root cause has been resolved and the data will be backfilled gradually over time. No action is required on your part.
