eDHR Completion Rate at 90% right-first-time rate: a worked example

Push right-first-time rate up to 90% and the picture changes. This example computes every intermediate figure at that operating point. Use in medical device manufacturing to assess eDHR review capacity. Helps determine if your quality team can keep pace with production or if review becomes a bottleneck before product release.

The inputs for this scenario

  • eDHRs completed and released: 120 records (unchanged)
  • Total review and approval hours: 80 hr (unchanged)
  • Right-first-time rate: 90 % (raised for this scenario; the documented default is 78)

Working through the calculation

  • Applying the documented formula (Raw review throughput = eDHRs released / total review hours) to the inputs above produces each figure below.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 1.35 units/hr for effective edhr completion rate, the number this scenario is built around.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 1.5 units/hr for raw throughput.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 90 % for right-first-time rate.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 80 hr for total review hours.

How this compares with the baseline

  • Against the tool's baseline example, where right-first-time rate sits at 78% and the headline result is 1.17 units/hr, this scenario comes in 15.38% above the baseline at 1.35 units/hr.
  • It computes effective eDHR review throughput per hour as raw records-per-hour scaled down by the right-first-time rate. The value of this scenario is the size of the gap it exposes: that gap, priced out over a year, is the budget you can justify spending to close it.

Results at a glance

  • Effective eDHR completion rate: 1.35 units/hr (headline result)
  • Raw throughput: 1.5 units/hr
  • Right-first-time rate: 90 %
  • Total review hours: 80 hr
