Creating barrier templates in Pega Care Management

Updated on December 22, 2021

You can create barriers at any time and add them to the personal health plan. Within the context of a care management case and goal achievement, a barrier is anything that prevents a patient or a member from completing the goals that are documented in the system. Barriers also include social determinants.

If you have glucose self-monitoring as a goal and you have not been taught the self-monitoring process, then you have a barrier. In this example, if you are also blind, that might change the way that the education is delivered.

Note: If you extend the accelerator classes for alerts, barriers, or fulfillments in your implementation layer, you need to ensure that the work objects are created for the extended classes. To do this, save the DisplayAlertHeader, DisplayBarriersHeader, and DisplayFulfillmentsHeader section rules to the implementation layer and then use dynamic class references to create the work objects. For information, see Setting dynamic class references for Business Analyst portal rules in Pega Care Management.
Note: Because look-up data pages do not support dynamic class referencing, you need to save the D_BA_Barrier rule in the appropriate implementation-layer class context so that the data page can fetch the implementation-layer specific data. Otherwise, the look-up fails and the data page does not return any data.
