Outcomes Dashboard: Overview & Guide

Edited

Currently in pilot phase

Overview

The Outcomes Progress Dashboard shows how your patients are progressing toward meaningful health goals over time.

This dashboard is designed to help you:

  • Understand how your patients are progressing across key outcomes

  • See where progress is building and where additional support may help

  • Align your care with evidence-based targets and Nourish’s long-term outcomes vision

Rather than focusing only on raw change (first value → last value), this dashboard is intended to clarify what we’re aiming for and how current progress compares to that goal.

How outcomes are measured

Each outcome is measured as progress toward a clinically appropriate target, defined based on the patient’s baseline values, condition(s), and relevant context (e.g., medication use).

This approach ensures that:

  • Progress is recognized even when patients start far from goal

  • Partial improvement counts as meaningful success

  • Targets remain clinically credible and evidence-based

Progress to target

For all tracked outcomes (e.g., weight, A1C, LDL, blood pressure, EDE-QS, GI-PROMIS):

  • 0-99% → Patient is making progress toward the goal

  • 100%+ → Patient has met or exceeded the clinical target

For more details on condition-specific targets, please refer to the Outcomes & Goal Setting at Nourish Help Center article.

How patients are included in the dashboard

To ensure progress is measured consistently, patients must have both a baseline and a follow-up value within defined time windows.

Baseline requirements

  • Weight: 30 days before to 14 days after first appointment

  • A1C, cholesterol, blood pressure: 90 days before or 14 days after first appointment

  • EDE-Q, GI-PROMIS: within 14 days after first appointment

Follow-up requirements

  • Weight & blood pressure: 1–3 months after first appointment

  • A1C & cholesterol: 3–6 months after first appointment

  • EDE-Q & GI-PROMIS: any second entry within 6 months

If multiple follow-ups are available, the most recent value is used. Patients without the required data, or whose progress falls outside currently measurable outcomes, will appear as blank.


Section 1: Your Outcomes Progress Summary

This section shows average progress across your patient panel, including:

  • An Overall summary

  • Average progress for each of Nourish’s main tracked outcomes

This section focuses on our core tracked outcomes (weight, blood pressure, A1C, LDL, and others), but we recognize that meaningful progress doesn't always show up in these metrics alone. You can find additional lab tracking, including other cardiometabolic, renal, electrolytes & minerals, and hormone health labs, in the second tab of the dashboard. Additionally, patient-specific goals and other non-scale victories are captured through Custom Long-Term Goals at the bottom of the dashboard. We look at the full picture when thinking about the care you're delivering, and encourage you to explore both tabs to get a complete view of your patients' progress.

Metric-specific expectation ranges

  • Each outcome includes metric-specific expectation ranges (e.g., within expected range, strong progress, target achieved)

  • These ranges are based on historical outcomes patterns across Nourish patients and reflect differences in how fully outcomes are typically achieved

  • This provides context for interpreting progress across different metrics, while keeping all outcomes anchored to the same final target

  • Expectation ranges are fixed (not dynamic) to ensure a stable and consistent reference point over time

How to read the bars

  • The length of each bar reflects average progress toward the target

  • The color indicates how that progress aligns with expectations for that specific metric

  • Expectation ranges are fixed (not based on moving averages or RD comparisons)

  • If you are newer or have limited patient data for a given outcome, some metrics may initially show limited context - this will strengthen as more data is collected

The ‘Overall’ bar

  • The ‘Overall’ bar reflects a single, weighted summary of the outcomes progress you're driving across your patient panel

    • For example, if you have 30 of your 40 patients tracking GI-PROMIS and 10 are tracking weight, GI-PROMIS outcomes will account for 75% of your ‘Overall’ bar

  • This ensures your ‘Overall’ score is interpreted in the context of the patients you actually care for, rather than taking a general average across outcomes that may not be relevant to patients you support


Section 2: Patient Success Stories

This section highlights patients with 80% progress or higher toward their outcome targets.

  • For each patient, you can view their baseline value, most recent value, target, and progress toward target

  • This is a great way to:

    • See where your care is having strong impact

    • Celebrate patient wins

    • Consider reaching out to patients to reinforce progress and motivation


Section 3: Patient Outcome Progress Over Time

For each primary outcome, you’ll see two views:

1. Outcome progress over time

  • This chart groups patients by first appointment date and shows average progress for each cohort.

  • This can help you:

    • See how outcomes have trended over time

    • Identify shifts in progress related to changes in care approach, training, or credentials (e.g., CDCES)

2. Patient-level progress by metric

  • This table shows progress for individual patients, with key details including:

    • Total number of appointments

    • Actual outcome change

    • Target outcome change

    • Relevant medication context

    • Progress toward target

  • Patient names link directly to their profiles, making it easy to review individual context and identify tailored next steps

  • This patient-level view is often the most actionable for improving outcomes, since each patient’s progress reflects unique clinical and life factors

  • If you do not treat patients for a given outcome (e.g., ED/disordered eating), that section will appear blank


Section 4: Custom Long-Term Goals

At the bottom of the dashboard, you’ll find Custom Long-Term Goals.

  • These are designed to complement standardized outcomes and support:

    • Non-scale victories

    • Patient-specific goals that don’t map cleanly to core metrics

    • Areas such as fertility, autoimmune conditions, or quality-of-life goals

  • You can view all patients’ custom goals, target due date, and resolution status

Custom goals are an important part of a holistic view of patient progress and should be considered alongside tracked outcomes.


Additional Labs

At the top of the dashboard, you'll also notice a second tab containing a broader set of lab values that are included in our Basic Lab Panel offering. This includes other cardiometabolic labs, renal labs, electrolytes & minerals, and hormone health markers. While these labs are not currently included in the summary tab with respective clinical targets, they offer important clinical context to form a more complete picture of your patients' progress.


Pilot and feedback

The Outcomes Progress Dashboard is currently a pilot. Your feedback plays a critical role in helping us refine:

  • Expectation thresholds

  • Language and clarity

  • Visual presentation and usability

As the dashboard evolves, your input will directly shape how outcomes are measured and communicated. We’d love your feedback - please share it here.
