Rearranging filters
• Users can rearrange the order in which filters
are applied to the cohort.
• Please note that individual filters are joined to
one another using “and” logic. Therefore, cases
must meet all filter criteria in sequential order
to be included in the cohort.
• To rearrange the filter order, click on the
Rearrange Filters button toward the bottom,
right-hand side of the screen.

This query utilizes the
filter group to
combine procedure
text and procedure
codes using “or” logic
– cases can meet
either filter group
criteria to be
included.
This query uses
individual filters to
combine procedure
text and procedure
codes using “and”
logic – cases need to
meet both filter
criteria to be
included.
Finalizing query
• The Finalize step of the query process has been simplified to include only a single
pop-up screen for capturing the filename, attestations and password for the file.
• Additionally, users can edit or rerun a previously completed query without
having to make a copy of it.
