Project description: 

This project will provide an option to display Communications (i.e. those from Patients - Medical Records - Communications), in Patients - Medical Records - Summary.

This will:

  • make it easier to see the flow of events for a patient
  • remove the need to duplicate communications as notes in a patient's history.

Display

In the patient history, the Note communication will be displayed as Communication to distinguish it from clinical notes.

As communication records can be large, only the To address  (if any) Subject line and of a communication will be displayed; the full communication can be accessed by double-clicking on it.

Where a communication falls within a Visit it will be displayed amongst the Visit items, otherwise it will be displayed on its own line e.g.:

Creation

Communications may be created, edited, and deleted from within the Summary. They will appear listed in New Medical Record list, when clicking New to create a new record.

Configuration

Display of communications will be enabled through user preferences.

Record Locking

Communication records are not subject to record locking, as they don't form part of the patient history.

Printing and Insurance Claims

Communications will not appear in printed history, nor will they be submitted as part of insurance claims as they do not represent clinical history.

Re: Display customer communications in patient history

TODO - do communications appear in the printed history? NO - absolutely not.

 

Otherwise looks good.
