Follow these steps to create a facility and configure its settings.
-
In OnBase Configuration, select Medical | Facilities | Facility Configuration. The Medical Facility Configuration dialog box is displayed.
Note:
Facilities preceded with an asterisk (*) were created by HL7 and have not yet been configured. Before you began configuring the facility, you must restart the HL7 Listener to ensure that new charts won't be marked as requiring review. See Fixing Charts with Facility Issues for more information.
- In the field at the bottom, enter the name of the facility.
- Click Create. The name is added to the list.
-
Click Settings. The Medical Facility Settings dialog box is displayed.
-
In the HL7 Field Specifier field, enter the HL7
Medical Facility value for this facility (required).
For information about HL7 Field Specifiers, see HL7 Field Specifiers.
Note:
The Ignore Attending Physician when verifying Chart Information setting does not apply to charts designated for Signature Deficiencies for Epic. In addition, the presence or absence of an attending physician does not affect whether these charts are sent to Charts Requiring Review.
-
Select the Warn When Deficiency Accepted: Missing Information setting to prompt physicians to confirm all necessary information has been provided whenever they click Accept for a Missing Information deficiency.
Note:
Because most deficiencies are missing signatures, a physician could accidentally sign a Missing Information deficiency without supplying the requested information. Therefore, when enabled, this setting helps to avoid that scenario.
