Scheduling

Summary

This enhancement to ICD workflow adds the ability to set an effective date when enabling the existing study-level Reason for Study site configuration option. When enabled, exams that have been updated with order notes would no longer require an ICD10 code when saving the exam.

Feature Description

Previously, there was no way to prevent the eRAD RIS from requiring a reason for study to be entered when the exam was performed.

With this change, the (existing) site level Enable Reason For Study checkbox now offers an optional Effective date option.

If the Enable Reason For Study checkbox is unchecked or the study has a scheduled date that is before the Effective date that is set, user will not be prompted to enter a reason for study in the exam.

Configuration Instructions

System Administrators must complete the following actions to enable this feature:

Changes to Organization Table Lookup Table Settings

·         In the Organization Table at the Site-Level on the Site Details tab, optionally enable the Enable Reason For Study checkbox, and optionally enter an Effective date.

Summary

This enhancement to the ICD workflow adds support for configuring specific procedure codes to not require a study-level reason for the study, to accommodate e.g. codes for lift assistance and hold codes for injections which should not require ICD10 codes in order to save and proceed.

Feature Description

Previously, all procedure codes required a study-level Reason for Study.

With this change, individual procedures such as hold codes and lift assistance codes., can be excluded from requiring a study-level Reason for Study and bypass the usual prompt to provide a reason before saving:

A new Require Reason for Study column has been added to the existing Procedure Code table that will allow specific codes to either be set to require or not require a study-level Reason for Study.

Known Limitations

The following significant limitations have been identified and should be communicated to affected users:

·         Bug #32265 - Need indication of study requiring RFS added to alert message pop up

When the validation alerts users of a missing ICD or text description, the dialog does not identify which study needs to be modified.

Configuration Instructions

No System Administrator actions are necessary to enable this feature; however, optional configuration is available.

·         Adjust the Require Reason for Study column to Y or N as desired.
