Background Processing

Monthly Rating Calculation

The calculate_monthly_physician_ratings task:

1. Aggregates survey responses mentioning physicians
2. Calculates average ratings
3. Counts sentiment (positive/neutral/negative)
4. Creates/updates PhysicianMonthlyRating records
5. Triggers ranking updates

Ranking Updates

The update_physician_rankings task:

1. Calculates hospital-wide rankings
2. Calculates department-wide rankings
3. Updates rank fields in rating records

Scheduling

• Run monthly on the 1st of each month
• Calculates ratings for the previous month
• Can be triggered manually for specific periods

RBAC (Role-Based Access Control)

PX Admins
