Action Panel¶
The Action Panel displays a read-only view of the patient ID, birthdate, age, gender, and appointment date. It also provides options to search for a new patient or appointment, save, complete, preview and print notes, and perform additional actions.
Patient and Appointment Search¶
A patient and/or appointment search can be performed to replace, correct, or add a missing patient and/or appointment to a note. This functionality is only available if the client sends a data feed to eSOne or patient data is manually entered into the eSOne system.
To initiate a search click Search . Two of three options will be presented: Search for a different Appointment for this Patient or Search for a different Order for this Patient, and Search for a different Patient.
Search for a Different Appointment or Order¶
Document types can be configured to contain appointment records or orders. The search option presented in the patient search menu will depend on the document type selected.
To search for a different appointment for the same patient select Search for a different Appointment for this Patient. To search for a different order for the same patient select Search for a different Order for this Patient.
A list of appointments or orders, depending on your selection, for the patient will be displayed. Click the desired appointment or order to apply it to the note.
