Some modules, like the OnBase Patient Window, can display patient demographic information using banners. If a banner contains the death indicator tag, it will display the word Deceased for deceased patients. Patients can be marked as deceased using the HL7 module.

To configure the HL7 module to mark patients as deceased:

  1. Assign the Patient Death Indicator chart data field to an HL7 field.
    Note:

    Ensure this HL7 field provides a value only when a patient is deceased. Any non-null value in this HL7 field will indicate the specified patient is deceased.

  2. Configure one of the following HL7 message actions to process messages containing the patient death indicator. These message actions mark a patient as deceased when a message provides a non-null value for the death indicator.

    • Medical Records Chart

    • Patient Record Processor
