Patient Care Setup: Quick Picks Setup

This functionality provides entries to select when entering data into specific fields, reducing keystrokes and maintaining consistency. Many of these categories are shared with other modules.

Each category has a list of entries. An entry has a description, which is the text seen in the program.

Entries should concentrate on:

• Maintaining consistency
• Commonly entered data
• Providing options

The Address 1 Category contains entries that are intended for streets, facilities, or apartment buildings that have a large number of patients, are often used, and have longer or difficult-to-spell names.

Note: This is not intended or the entry of every street.

The Address 2 Category serves as an entry location for a secondary/specific number/identification for an apartment building.

Incident Class entries provide for report filtering of runs in the PCR Module. These provide a way to identify a record that cannot be identified by another field.

The Personal Items Category creates entries for selection with the personal items of the Patient Information Tab.

The Personal Item Given To Category creates entries for selection with the personal items of the Patient Information Tab.

The QA Error Category entries detail the reason why a PCR is routed to a user in the QA Process.

The Site Code Category provides entries to filter PCRs in the Patient Care and Billing Modules. Site codes also provide a way to identify a record that cannot be identified any other way.

Suffix entries are intended to provide additional information about a person.  Post-nominal letters can be entered to indicate that the individual holds a position or has the same name as other family members.

The Supplemental Category provides entries for a supplemental prompt (if that type is selected) for the Supplemental Tab.

Supply Item entries provide a way to track what items are given to a specific person.

Township entries are intended to help with report filtering of runs.
