Add Patient

 

Note: There should be only one Add PATIENT screen open per workstation.

 

This option allows the addition of a new patient and new insurance coverage for a patient. The information entered, or modified, as a patient account is vital to effectively process this account through the various stages of clinic management.

 

For practices that utilize more than one clinic, Intellect provides the capability to share patient demographics, thus minimizing time spent on certain registration process (see Utility --►Set Up --►System). These  fields are NOT shared between clinics and must be updated separately in each clinic: <Category>, <Referring Name>, and <PCP Name>.

 

This option may also be used to set up staff members in order to schedule staff vacations on the Appointment Schedule. And, it may be used to set up 'BLOCK' as a patient for use on the Appointment Schedule. For additional information, contact your trainer.

 

See details on adding a new patient.

 

 

Video Available: Click Patient Registration to access the link. Depending on the system set up, the media player may need to be activated. Speakers need to be attached to the workstation to hear the instructions.

Updates:

 

Effective version 20.11.16, a new pa_hl7_id field was added to hold the CLIENTS EMR ID/Number when messages are imported. This field is used to accommodate vendors who are sending HL7 messages and are unable to including the Intellect PA_ACCOUT in the PID-2. For this field to read in Intellect, a Patient Demo file must be provided from the EHR Vendor and loaded into OSI.

 

NOTE: These changes affect the any messages received in the Import folder NOT the ADT created by Intellect and added to the HL7 folder.

 


 

Effective version 17.06.09, an [Additional Demographics] button was added to the bottom of the PATIENT screen to accommodate adding extra patient demographic information needed to meet Meaningful Use requirements. See [Additional Demographics] for details.

 


 

PCM users only. Effective version 16.10.11, when an Intellect client purchases PCM, a new feature called 'Create Chart' automatically creates a chart in PCM for every existing patient in Intellect. No action is required by the user.

 


 

PCM users only. Effective version 15.02.17, whatever is selected in the <Payer SOP Code> field on the Utility --►Insurance --►Insurance Add INSUR_CO screen is set internally to the patient’s PA_PAYER_SOP_CODE when adding or modifying the primary insurance of either a regular or worker’s comp patient. Note: There is not a <Payer SOP Code> field on either of Intellect’s patient or worker screens, but the information is used by PCM.

 


 

Effective version 14.09.29:

Pediatric clinics only. As of this update, two screens are available for clinics serving pediatric patients. The first screen is a patient screen which includes the patient and guardian information. The second screen contains information for the guarantor. To use the pediatric screens, please contact PCS Support.

 


 

To add a new patient in Intellect, go to Registration --► Regular --► Patient --► Add.

 

Note: When setting up a new patient, the <First Name>, <Last Name>, <Guarantor>, and <Category> fields are mandatory and MUST be filled-in.

 

 

The Add PATIENT screen displays:

 

f

Note1: As information is entered, use the keyboard [Enter], [Tab], [↓] keys, OR use the mouse to advance the focus to the next field. Use the mouse OR [↑] to move the focus to the previous field.

 

Note2: This screen, like many in Intellect, has several optional fields, and the placement of fields in this documentation may vary slightly from clinic to clinic. See the optional fields at the bottom of this document and/or the documentation on adding/removing fields.

 

1. Patient Account No                       

 

1.1. The focus automatically starts here.

 

1.1.1 If the system is set to assign numbers automatically (see Utility --►Set Up --►Parameter <Auto Patient No>), Intellect displays the next available account number.

 

1.1.2 When the account number is not automatic, assign a unique number (up to 10-digits). 

 

1.1.3 If an attempt is made to assign a number when the system is set to automatically provide an account number, an error message displays:

 

 

Select [OK] to return to the <Patient Account No> field.

 

1.1.4 This field is mandatory and must be completed. The system cannot continue without a unique patient number. If left blank, an error message displays:

 

 

1.2 If Utility --►Set Up --►Parameter <Check Duplicate Pt> = 'Y,' the system checks for duplicate accounts (which is highly recommended). A search screen appears when [Enter] is pressed in the <Patient Account No> field:

 

 

Press [ESC] to bypass this search.

 

See more on Duplicate Patient.

 

2.  Chart Number                           

 

2.1 This is an optional field and may be left blank.

 

2.2 The field accepts up to12 alphanumeric characters.

 

2.3 The Chart Number may be printed on custom Superbill or Registration forms.

 

Chart Number examples:

The language of the patient.

 

The name or initials of the lab covered by this patient's insurance

 

3. Last Name                                 

 

3.1 Type the patient's last name.

 

Effective Version 13.01.11
As of October 1, 2012, Medicare contractors reject any claim with ANSI reason codes MA130 and MA61 when the beneficiary name and Health Claim Number do not match the information listed in the Common Working File record for the beneficiary (i.e., as shown on the Medicare card). Because of this, Intellect now accommodates suffixes for beneficiary last names. Examples of suffixes are: I, II, III,1, 11, 111, i, ii, iii, 1v, 1V, IV, iv, JR, JR., Jr, Jr., SR, SR., Sr., or Sr. Clinics who use suffixes that are not listed here, may be sent to PCS Support to have them added to the program.

If a patient/beneficiary has a suffix, it
must be added to the patient <Last Name>; the name should be entered into Intellect exactly as it is shown on the Medicare card.

For example, if a patient has the name of John Jones, Jr., then Jones, Jr. should be entered in the <Last Name> field. If a comma is entered after the suffix (Jones, Jr.,), the suffix of Jr. is not included. It is OK to have a comma between the last name and the suffix.

If a hyphen is included between the last name and the suffix Jones-Jr), Intellect includes the suffix.

 

3.2 This field is mandatory and must be completed. If left blank, an error message displays:

 

 

Select [OK] to return the focus to the <Last Name> field.

 

3.3 Note: The combined character length of the names entered in the <Last Name> and <First Name> fields should not exceed 70 characters. If the 70-character length is exceeded, the patient name displays on the appointment schedule, but the right-click menu may not be accessed.

 

 

3.4 Effective version 14.08.25, any Intellect report may be exported to PCM for storage. The reports can be stored in PCM indefinitely. Reports are exported in .pdf format.

 

To used this feature, set up a new patient with INTELLECT_REPORTS in the <Last Name> field. A first name and DOB is also required. Any value can be used for the <First name> and <DOB> fields, such as 'Reports' or 'Intellect' for the first name and today’s date for the DOB. Note: When entering INTELLECT_REPORTS, case does not matter; i.e., it may be all upper case, all lower case, or lower case with beginning capitals. 

 

Additional set up is required in both Intellect and PCM as instructed in Notes for PCM Users --►Export Intellect Reports to PCM.

 

4. First Name                                

 

4.1 Type the patient's first name.

 

4.2 This field is mandatory and must be completed. If left blank, an error message displays:

 

 

Select [OK] to return the focus to the First Name field.

 

4.3 Note: The combined character length of the names entered in the <Last Name> and <First Name> fields should not exceed 70 characters. If the 70-character length is exceeded, the patient name displays on the appointment schedule, but the right-click menu may not be accessed.

 

 

5. Middle Initial                                

 

5.1 Type the patient's middle initial.

 

5.2 Optional, but recommended.

 

5.3 Effective version 13.12.12, on the HCFA 1500 form, the name appears separated by commas; i.e., last name, first name, and middle initial. A hyphen may be used for hyphenated names. Periods are not used within the name.

 

6. Prefix                                        

 

6.1 Accept the default ' blank' to not list a prefix for the patient, OR use the drop-down list to make an alternate selection:

 

img src="..\..\..\image3201.gif" alt="" style="border: none;" border="0" /> 

 

7. Guarantor                            

 

7.1 The <Patient's Account No> automatically displays here.

 

7.2 This field is mandatory and may not be left blank. If the field is cleared but a replacement account number for the patient's guarantor is not entered, after pressing [Enter] Intellect re-inserts the <Patient Account No>. 

 

7.3 If the patient is responsible for paying all non-insurance charges, press [Enter] to accept.

 

The <Guarantor> field determines the account that is responsible for any balances. This affects only patient statements and prints the guarantor's name on the CHDP PM160, but it does not affect paper or electronic billing. For example, if the patient is a minor and it is desired to have his or her charges be billed on a statement to the parent, first register the parent and insert his/her account number in the patient’s Guarantor field.

 

7.4 If the patient being added is a minor:

 

7.4.1 If a separate guarantor account is not going to be added for this patient but the parent/guarantor needs to appear on the statement, enter the <Patient's Account No> and use the <Second Address> field for the name of the responsible party.

 

7.4.2 If a Guarantor account is going to be created for both the parent/guarantor, then press [F2] to search for the Guarantor account which may be added from the search screen if not found.

9.2.2 Press [Space] to clear the field and enter the patient's address, if the patient does not reside at the same address as the guarantor.

 

Note: This address is used for patient Statements, Recall Letters, and Follow Up Letters. When <Guarantor> is not the patient's account number, statements are sent to the address on the account for the <Guarantor>.

 

10. Second Address                   

 

10.1 If requested, the <Second Address> may be added to the patient's address on the Recall and Follow Up letters, Patient Statements, Registration Form, or any other custom form.

 

10.2 This address is not used for billing.

11.4 Effective version 9.12.24, a task named 'ZipCode9' runs every night and can update any zip code fields with a 9-digit value using the current 5-digit zip code value and its' address field. As of December 2011 it only updates the patient zip code, but in the future it can be expanded to other fields as well. It does not update the field if the source from which it fetches the data (www.usps.com) does not recognize the combination of zip code and address as a legitimate one.

 

12. City                                            

 

12.1 The city name displays from the Zip Code, if it is known to Intellect.

 

12.2 Otherwise, type the city attached to the Zip Code.

15. Home Phone No                       

 

15.1 Type the patient's home phone number.

 

Note to CallSTAFF users: If the patient's area code is not the same as the <Default Phone Area> field in Utility --►Set Up --►Parameter, Intellect dials the 1 and area code. If the patient's area code DOES match the <Default Phone Area> field, it does NOT dial 1 and area code.

 

16. Email Address                         

 

16.1 Type the patient's Email address.

 

16.2 If this field is completed, Intellect can email the information to the patient rather than print it when creating Patient Statements, Follow Up and Recall Letters, or Forms.
For more information on emailing from Intellect, refer to the section on Emailing.

Selecting 'Blank' as the default has some items to consider:

 

1 - Because claims billed without a valid gender may be rejected, PCS suggests the <Gender> field be set up as a required field. Meaning, if it is left blank when either [Add] or [Modify] are selected, this message displays:

 

 

The operator must select a gender before exiting the screen and saving the record.

 

To have this field set as a required field, please contact PCS Support.

 

2 - To schedule an appointment, a patient must have an account. For new patients, the scheduler needs to add the patient account record, which means they need to select a gender before they can save the new patient account record.

 

21.3 This field is used when generating Management Reports based on the patient’s gender, including Management --► OSHPD Report <Report Code> Utilization by Age and Gender and Management --► UDS Report --► Patients by Age and Gender.
