Admit patient (Field mode)

  1. In the Patient component, click the paper icon on the toolbar.
  2. In the New Patient dialog, specify the new patient information, and then click OK.
  3. Specify patient's diagnoses as free text. 
    For details, see Add Free-Text Diagnoses for a Patient, Add Free-Text Inpatient Diagnoses for a Patient (Field mode), Enter Free-Text Procedures for a Patient, and Diagnoses window in Field mode.
  4. Select General>Admissions & Status
    If your agency defined a prospective status code, the application automatically creates an admission line with that code by default. If no prospective status code is defined, create the line manually. 
    Note: Only status codes defined as Field Use Only (in Administration>General>Patient Status Codes) are available in this window in Field mode.
  5. When all information is complete, click Save All. The information is now ready for upload. 
    Note: You cannot make any billable services in Field mode until you go to Host mode, replace the Field Use Only patient status code with the equivalent Host mode status code, and add payer information.
