Info
Patient Aliases can be modified via the Patient Alias Configuration section of the Admin Tool. Rules must be set up for each unit of the campus.
Details
Five events can trigger the creation of an alias:
On creation of a new patient record via ADT transaction.
On creation of a new patient via Capacity IQ® UI when the Patient Alias field is empty.
Patient is transferred from one unit to another.
Patient IsConfidential flag is updated.
Patient first or last name is updated via the UI or ADT.
Last item checked is patient has a new current unit. If a new unit is found is uses that alias if no current unit is found it pulls for the campus default. On transfer, a new alias is always created.
