Graham.

 I include 2 examples of my procedure templates;  I have these set up individually for LEFT, right L4, L5 etc. might be easier to have drop down options for laterality etc.

second example

---

These types of forms where there are lots of text and only a few additions/choices are best done using a text replacement scheme rather than a GUI template.

And much simpler too.

I have been perusing the forums and did come across and bookmark the appropriate thread.   I'm going to start Constructing templates and macros.

 thanks for the timely responses.

We have a few questions:

1.  Is there a field for copays?  If not, can it be placed somewhere in this  field.

 

2. PHCP, for  my practice is NEVER me.  All my patients are referred from a primary or other doc. How can we make it so on this screen?

(1) Copay is an excellent Idea, especially if it remains fairly consistent.  That should definitely be added.

 

(2) When you click on the little eye to assign a PHCP ... the only people coming up are doctors.  You must have your receptionist assigned as a doctor.

To check that out ... look in >People>Staff.

To add family doctor's to your PHCP list, use the little eye below that and choose  [Make Primary]

- I have shown two ways ... one in the Providers tab and another right from the Personal&Contact Tab.

 

 

Hope that helps.

Regarding co-payments, this sounds like a PMS function .. so not at this time.

As for PHCP, this is a misnomer if you're not a FP .. as it refers to the doc who is looking after this patient when they come to your practice.  If you're a single practitoner, it will always be you.

The PHCP field is then used for 

• HL7 incoming data 
• Autofiling - so autofiled results go to the right doc
• Web portal messages

As Jason says, the field below is for the referring practitoner, and the fields below are for any other practitioners involved in this patient's care so that you can easily CC letters to them.

I think it is a really important value that American Docs refer to alot.  Certainly just having the patient's Insurance Information is a PMS function so core Synapse already has PMS functions.

Instead of PHCP:, how about "Provider:"

Or Staff: ?

Mlost North Americans understand what you mean when you say you're "on staff"

Well Provider is more self explanatory .... but how explanatory do you need to be when you click on the little eye and only doctors show up

O.K. another Q...

 I've adapted several templates to my liking.  How do I eliminate the commas between choices of a check-group?  I've placed "no commas" at the very end of the code but it doesn't do the trick.
