One-Off Reminders
Submitted by Guest on Mon, 18/07/2011 - 09:59
Is there a mechanism to put a one-off reminder into the system? From what I can tell, a reminder is completed by the associated product being purchased. However, at that time a new reminder is created. There are a lot of situations that it was a one-off procedure that does not repeat. A good example of this would be dental work. We might schedule a reminder for 6 months out for dental work, but wouldn't want to do that again after the work is performed.
Thanks! Paul

Hi Paul
To add a reminder manually: Select Patient. Go to their Medical Records. Click on the Reminders/Alerts tab.
Click on New and add Reminder. Enter the Reminder Type (click on the binoculars if you dont know which one and choose from your List). Set the date the reminder will be due in Due Date.
This is the only information required for the reminder to be set. You can also add the Product if you would like to see what the patient is due for eg: Reminder Type may be Annual Vaccination and the Product is C5 Vaccination. (as shown in the Reminder/Alerts tab on the patient file)

Hi Cathy,
Thanks for the reply! I think I phrased my question poorly, I'll try to expound:
After a reminder has been entered, how can one configure the system to "complete" the reminder at the sale of a product without generating a new reminder simultaneously?
Thanks,
Paul
