Information stored under Responsible / Contacts is used across the different areas of the system that require the patient’s guarantor, emergency contact, or responsible contact information.
Contact Information on the Patient Dashboard displays each person with the Emergency Contact role, along with their relationship to the patient and phone number.
The patient summary on the Dashboard identifies the person in the list with the Guarantor role as the patient’s guarantor.
- Referrals, accidents, Patient Report, and patient documents retrieve guarantor and emergency contact information from the list.
- Forms sent to the patient are prefilled with the Emergency Contact from the list. If emergency contact information is entered through these forms, it is saved to the same list.
- If the patient does not have an email address or phone number, appointment confirmation messages are sent to the patient’s responsible contact from the list.
This keeps Responsible / Contacts information centralized and available across the different areas of the system that require these details.
