The following table describes columns that may be available for patient lists.
Both personal lists and system lists use the same set of columns; however, columns for system lists display information only for the charts that match the system list search criteria.
If a column displays the word Multiple, then the column has multiple values for the patient. For example, the patient may have charts residing in multiple departments. Rest your pointer over the word Multiple to display the values.
Patient List Column |
Description |
---|---|
Admit Date |
The date the patient was admitted. |
Admit Type |
The type of admission for a specific episode or visit. |
Attending Physician |
The patient's attending physician for a specific episode or visit. |
Dept. Name |
The patient's assigned department for a specific episode or visit. |
Discharge Date |
The date the patient was discharged. |
Facility Name |
The name of the facility where the patient was treated for a specific episode or visit. |
Medical Record # |
The patient's medical record number (MRN). If an MRN is associated with an assigning authority, then the column displays the assigning authority in brackets next to the MRN. For example, if MRN 125 is associated with the EMR assigning authority, then it is displayed as 125 [EMR]. Assigning authorities differentiate MRNs that have the same value. If an MRN has been merged, then the previous MRN is displayed in parentheses next to the current one. For example, if a record with an MRN of 123 has been merged into MRN 124, then the MRN is displayed as 124 (123). |
MPI Number |
The patient's master patient index (MPI). If an MPI is associated with an assigning authority, then the column displays the assigning authority in brackets next to the MPI. For example, if MPI 125 is associated with the EMR assigning authority, then it is displayed as 125 [EMR]. Assigning authorities differentiate MPIs that have the same value. If an MPI record has been merged, then the column displays the previous MPI in parentheses next to the current one. For example, if a record with an MPI of 123 were merged into MPI 124, then the MPI column would display 124 (123) for that record. |
