Image Workflow - Error Handling

 Top  Previous  Next

Let's take a look at error handling.  One option is to Move an image to an "error handling" Station.  Once the image is in an "error handling" Station, there are two possibilities.  The first is that there were sufficient problems such that the Action selected (Patient, New Visit, etc) could not be completed and that a resulting entity (Patient, Visit, etc) was NOT added to MedSuite prior to Moving the image to the error handling Station.  The second possibility is that the missing information was not a required field or the user "dummied-up" data to get past a required field edit.  So the entity (Patient, Visit, etc) has been added to MedSuite, but needs to be edited and corrected.

 

In either case, the person whose job it is to resolve these issues or errors needs to get the missing information from the hospital, the surgeon, or the patient.

 

Depending on whether the patient was added to MedSuite or not, it will be handled one of two ways:

 

Option 1 – Entity Doesn't Exist in MedSuite

 

1.Press the Action button.
2.The Action will invoke the appropriate MedSuite software function and focus will be given to the data input window.
3.You may zoom-in, zoom-out, or pan the image in any direction to more easily view the image and key the demo without changing to the image window or clicking on it.
4.When entity (Patient, Visit, etc) is completed, click OK or Finish.  The data input window will be closed, the image will be indexed and the Image Workflow List will automatically load the next image in the list into the Image Viewer.

 

Option 2 – Entity Exists with Incomplete or "Dummied-Up" Data

 

1.Press the Jump button.
2.The appropriate data input window will be opened automatically and focus will be given to the data input window.  You may edit or correct the pertinent information.
3.You may zoom-in, zoom-out, or pan the image in any direction to more easily view the image and key the demo without changing to the image window or clicking on it.
4.When entity (Patient, Visit, etc) is completed, click OK or Finish.  The data input window will be closed, the image will be indexed and the Image Workflow List will automatically load the next image in the list into the Image Viewer.
