Physician Information Configuration allows you to provide personal and professional information for each physician. This information is mapped to a single user account in OnBase. This is a one-to-one relationship, ensuring that multiple physicians cannot be mapped to a single user account.

You can configure physician information using either OnBase Configuration or the Medical Records Unity Client.

To configure physician information using OnBase Configuration:

  1. Select Medical | Physicians | Physician Information. The Physician Information Configuration dialog box is displayed.
    Note:

    The Proxy Users button is available for these licenses: Medical Records Management Solution and Medical Records Completion for OnBase Meditech.

  2. Enter the name of the physician and click Create. The Physician Information Settings dialog box is displayed.
  3. Select the physician's user account from the User Name drop-down list.

    If a physician's user account has been deleted from OnBase, then the user account is labeled as deactivated. You cannot assign a new physician to a deactivated account.

    CAUTION:

    Ensure the correct user account is selected. Once you save the Physician Information Settings, the user account cannot be changed without the -MRMSINSTALL switch and password confirmation. Even with the switch applied, the user account cannot be changed if the physician is assigned or has completed any deficiencies. For a physician's deficiencies to be burned, the user account mapped to the physician during signing must be mapped to a physician at the time of burning. Contact your solution provider for assistance.

  4. Enter the appropriate physician identification information. The Physician Number must be unique to each physician.
  5. If the user is a secondary signer or resident, select Secondary Signer.
    Note:

    The Secondary Signer setting cannot be changed for existing physicians or secondary signers who have outstanding deficiencies. All deficiencies assigned to the physician or secondary signer must be completed and confirmed before this setting can be changed.

  6. If the user is a secondary signer or resident, select the Secondary Signer check box.
  7. To store address information, complete the following fields:

    Field

    Description

    Address 1

    The street address for the physician.

    Address 2

    The second line of the address for the physician, if applicable.

    City

    The city for the physician.

    State

    The state for the physician.

    Zip Code

    The ZIP code for the physician.
  8. In the Signature Text field, enter the physician's name as it should be displayed when the physician signs deficiencies.
    Note:

    It is strongly recommended to configure the Signature Text field for physicians who will sign deficiencies. If the Include Physician Number in Signature Text setting is disabled in Medical System Settings, then the signature text is the only means of identifying the signing physician.

  9. If the physician will access OnBase using an external system integration, such as OnBase for Meditech, configure the EMR System ID for the physician.
  10. Click Save.
