Evaluation definitions
Understand what each definition and rubric field means.
Evaluations
Every dimension, score anchor, and vocabulary value of ChartHero's standard evaluation definitions.
These are ChartHero's standard evaluation definitions, generated from ChartHero's definitions registry when these docs are built. Use them to label results and build lookup tables. Evaluation definitions explains each field.
GET /external/v1/evaluation-definitions returns the same values, plus each rubric's guidance, which is not published here. It also returns any definitions and rubrics that belong only to your organization, so read definitions from the API rather than copying these tables into code.
Measures how participants carry out care coordination in recorded conversations, relative to their roles and the opportunities the conversation presents.

care_coordinator |
1 |
Care coordinator | active |
Recorded conversations by care coordinators that produced a Patient Outreach note. |
Points run from −2 to +2. 0 means the person met their role's expectations for the opportunity the conversation presented.
| Points | Label | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
-2 |
Serious concern | A major, central failure creates a credible pathway to harm or breakdown. |
-1 |
Meaningful opportunity | A supported gap could materially affect effectiveness or follow-through. |
0 |
Meets expectations | Competent and appropriate for the opportunity the call presented. |
+1 |
Strong | Specific behavior is clearly stronger than routine expected performance. |
+2 |
Exemplary | Standout handling meaningfully improves the result or reliability of care. |
Descriptions are role-neutral. Every result lists every dimension, with points null when it was not scored.

unclear |
Unclear |
clinical_complexity_level: Clinical complexity. The current clinical or functional management burden described in the call—not diagnosis labels, age, medical history, or risk alone.
| Value | Label | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
low |
Low | The issue is stable, resolved, controlled, improving, minor, or managed through a straightforward established plan, with little effect on function, self-care, or treatment execution. |
moderate |
Moderate | A current issue creates meaningful but manageable burden and requires active assessment, monitoring, adjustment, or self-management beyond routine confirmation. |
high |
High | Severe or interacting issues materially affect basic needs, safe self-care, treatment execution, or recovery, or require complex management of a high-risk treatment, wound, or device. |
unclear |
Unclear | The transcript evidence is too incomplete or contradictory to judge the current burden reliably. |
care_navigation_complexity_level: Care-navigation complexity. The unresolved coordination burden involved in completing the care plan—not simply the number of referrals, services, or topics mentioned.
| Value | Label | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
low |
Low | Coordination is absent, resolved, or routine. Any pending action has a clear owner and a standard, reliable path without a meaningful current barrier. |
moderate |
Moderate | A concrete but bounded obstacle—such as delay, uncertain ownership, a failed step, or a nonroutine dependency—creates friction, while the path remains reasonably reliable. |
high |
High | Repeated failures, cross-system dependencies, shifting ownership, or a consequential unresolved need make execution materially uncertain, delayed, or unreliable. |
unclear |
Unclear | The transcript evidence is too incomplete or contradictory to judge the coordination burden reliably. |
interaction_complexity_level: Interaction complexity. Observable difficulty exchanging important information—not a label for the person, their personality, motivation, cognition, or literacy.
| Value | Label | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
low |
Low | Information is exchanged reliably with ordinary clarification. Minor repetition, emotion, connection issues, or lengthy but relevant discussion do not materially disrupt the call. |
moderate |
Moderate | Recurring or sustained difficulty materially slows progress, requires repeated clarification or redirection, or makes important information less reliable, but key facts and next steps are established. |
high |
High | Despite reasonable clarification, important facts, needs, consent, understanding, or next steps cannot be established reliably, leaving substantive work incomplete. |
unclear |
Unclear | The transcript does not permit communication burden to be judged reliably. |
overall_complexity_level: Overall complexity. The highest known clinical, care-navigation or interaction complexity; unclear when none is known.
