•If the forms will be viewed from ChartLink within the hospital network, then the same URL that is entered in the Internal URL field should also be entered in the External URL field.

 

•If forms will be viewed from ChartLink over an internet connection, please call TruBridge to have a specific external URL configured for this field.

 

3.The Column Width for Electronic Forms is set by TruBridge to 372. This column width controls all forms set up for the facility and should not be changed.

 

4.The Directory Disk code should never be changed by hospital personnel.

 

5.Open Form Timeout sets the number of hours that the form will be allowed to remain open before being closed on the patient.

There are two fields. A three-digit value may be entered into the first field to specify the number of days or stays. The second field is a Drop-down box for the selection of "days" or "stays."

 

7.View Unlocked Forms via ChartLink & ImageLink allows users to define how Electronic Forms display on their system when forms are opened from ChartLink and/or ImageLink. If checked, forms are viewable if the forms are locked or unlocked on the patient account.
