I have created a Quality form that tells the user what a patient is due for. This forms ties in with the protocols built in GE. I am trying to have either for VFE form of the protocols recognize if a patient has had a hysterectomy and then remove the need for a pap smear. Any ideas????
Either option will need to look at an Obs Term for the hysterectomy being done. Our clinic is using Index Logic to scan in outside procedures, and write to an Obs Term that records what procedure was done. After that, the protocols or the VFE form can check the Obs Term to see if it is not blank like so:{OBSANY("HYSTER DATE") <> ""}
let me know if you need a more technical answer on how this would look in your VFE form or the GE protocols.
Currently every provider documents a hysterectomy on the PSH page, they free text it. They wanted a button on the Quality VFE page to click if a patient has had a hysterectomy and this would remove them from needing a pap.
Right now we have a dropdown choice and a date field for them to record when a pap was done. If the patient has had a hysterectomy, currently there is a check box records DONE for the Observation term Hysterectomy. It is putting the date entered rather than the date of the procedure. I would also like the PAP SMEAR due to go away from the protocols list at the top of the form. I am attaching the form in case seeing it helps explain what I am trying to accomplish.
