This message action creates charts containing medical record documents. Chart creation requires an HL7 message that contains values for the following keywords:
-
Master Patient Index (MPI)1
-
One of the following: Medical Record Number (MRN), Patient Account Number, or the Chart ID2
-
Any fields designated as required under Medical | Charts | Data Fields
Note:
When new charts are created, if the incoming message does not specify a department, a default department is entered for the chart in OnBase.
Options, settings, and additional information are described in the following topics:
1 Charts must not be assigned blank MPIs. If your institution does not use MPIs, then map the MPI chart data field to another HL7 field that uniquely identifies patients (such as the MRN field, if each NRM is guaranteed to be unique to one patient).
2 Ensure all incoming messages provide a primary value for charts being created or updated.
