The Patient Health Information tab of the Patient file contains:
1) Records of the Patient Health Information Forms provided to patients plus PHI alerts
2) Record of the Access log to the Patient File
3) Records of PHI provided to external entities
The Patient Health Information (PHI) Manager screens permits users to record the various forms required by various legislation such as the PHI act, the PIPEDA Act and the HIPAA Act for a given patient.
When using the PHI Manager users can create patient specific PHI alerts (i.e. removal of consent, or alteration to consent form) which are Alert messages that will appear to users at the specified time. These warnings can instruct or advise the user to take certain action or to request information from the patient.
To activate a warning place a check mark in the appropriate check box.
All access to the patient file is recorded in the HIPAA access Log
\
Users can also record request for patient information from external sources.
