DrCloudEHR provides seamless integration with the Oregon Health Authority's Measures and Outcomes Tracking System (MOTS) to enable facilities to report patient status and service billing updates to the Addictions and Mental Health (AMH) Division.

The application automatically creates and submits a status record through MOTS when you:

  • Admit a patient configured for MOTS to a facility or program that is enabled to submit reports. 
  • Discharge a patient configure for MOTS from a facility or program that is enabled to submit reports.

The application resubmits the status record if a patient remains in a facility or program 60 days after the initial admission date.

You configure a patient to use MOTS by supplying information required by MOTS when you add or edit the patient's data. The fields in the MOTS status record are automatically populated using patient data stored in the DrCloudEHR database. After a report is created, the application submits it to MOTS electronically using an EDI connection that you create.

In addition to submitting status records, the system automatically submits monthly reports that describe billable services each facility provides that are not covered by Medicaid. The system creates the reports based on service rules that you define.

This topic contains the following sections:

Prepare to Use MOTS

Create the MOTS EDI Connection

Create an EDI connection the application uses to submit forms to MOTS electronically. The connection is used by all facilities configured to submit forms through MOTS. The connection is similar to the connection you create to submit claims to a medical claims clearinghouse.

  1. Click the Practice tab. 
  2. In the left-hand navigation menu, click the Administrative tab, and then select Practice.
  3. Click the MOTS link under Practice Settings at the top of the page.



  4. Click the Host URL link.
  5. Enter the required connection information, which should be provided to you by MOTS. Fields marked with an asterisk are required.
  6. Click Save to save the connection details.

Configure Facilities or Programs to Use MOTS

Provide the information required to submit status records for a facility through MOTS.

DrCloudEHR automatically creates and submits a status record containing the patient data you select from the Treatment Type menu when you admit a patient to the facility, or when you discharge a patient from the facility.

The application also submits monthly service reports that contain details for each billable service code for which the facility provided treatment. Billable services are those services that are not covered by Medicaid.

  1. Click the Practice tab. 
  2. Click the Administrative tab, and then click Facilities.
  3. Do one of the following:
    • Click Add to add a new facility.
    • Click a facility name in the table to edit the facility.
  4. Click the MOTS tab. 



  5. Enter the required information. 
  6. Click Save.

Map MOTS Form Fields to DrCloudEHR Fields

Map each field in the MOTS forms with the corresponding field in the DrCloudEHR database. The application automatically populates fields in the MOTS forms you create with data stored in the database.

You must be familiar with how data is stored in your system in order to map a form field to a database field. When you map the fields, you select the category, or type, the data belongs to. Based on the category, you then select the database table and database field that contains the data. 

  1. Click the Administration tab.
  2. Click the Interface Mapping tab in the left hand navigation bar.
  3. For each Input Form Data element used in a MOTS form, click the Edit button in the Source Data Column.



  4. Select the data type from the Category menu.
  5. Enter the database table and field containing the data, and then click Apply.



  6. Click Save when you have finished mapping the fields.

Submit Patient Status Records Through MOTS

Provide MOTS Data for a Patient

Provide the necessary information for each patient included in status records submitted through MOTS. You can provide the information when you add or edit the patient in the system.

MOTS requires that you provide information within the following categories:

  • Client Profile Data (CPD)
  • Behavioral Health Data (BHD)
  • Addiction Detail Data (ADD)
  • Involuntary Service (INS)
  • Mental Health Crisis Data (MCD)

Complete the following steps to provide patient data:
