See Medication Reconciliation for information on additional use and setup.

 

•The Problem List is selected to allow the Physician's Problem List to open where the problems may be entered or viewed. To enable this feature, initial contact is made with a TruBridge EHR Physician's Application Representative. See Problem List for information on additional use and setup.

 

•The Family Health History (this is now available within the Health History application below) field is created to record family disease information, which is required for second-stage Meaningful Use. The new field will allow the user to search for and select a diagnosis and to associate one or more relatives with that diagnosis.

The widget will contain the following fields: Type (Referral or Transition of Care), Provider (Create or pull from Referring Physician Table), Phone, Address, Reason for Referral/Transition, and Scheduled date. The Health History Application should now be used in place of the Referral or Transition of Care application.
