Patient Setup

Why Use This Function:

Patient Setup allows Practices to create and configure Patient Classifications and Tags, providing a flexible way to organise and identify Patients. Tags can be customised to suit the Practice’s needs and applied in multiple combinations to a single Patient, making it easy to highlight important information or group Patients by specific criteria. This improves visibility, enhances record management, and helps Practitioners quickly identify key details about their Patients.

Tag Setup

The Tag Setup section defines and manages detailed identifiers, or tags, associated with each classification. Tags provide granular information that can be assigned to a Patient within the classification framework. The Selectable checkbox determines whether a tag can be chosen when setting up or editing a Patient Profile. Proper use of tags enables precise Patient grouping, filtering, and reporting, supporting accurate data management and analysis.
