Is there a way to print a patient's appointment history individually in CPS 12? I have read all that GE supplies on the subject in their help icon on the desktop, and none are accurate. Any help is greatly appreciated.

TIA!

Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but we use the code below in a letter to print a patient's appointment history. Hope it helps!

{DATESTAMP()}

Patient Account#: {PATIENT.PATIENTID}

Patient Name: {PATIENT.LABELNAME}

Patient DOB: {PATIENT.DATEOFBIRTH}

To Whom it May Concern:

As requested, appointments for the above named patient are as follows:

No Show Appts

{APPTS_BY_STATUS("no show", "FULL")}

Scheduled Appts

{APPTS_BY_STATUS("scheduled", "FULL")}

Cancelled Appointments

{APPTS_BY_STATUS("cancelled", "FULL")}

Completed Appointments

{APPTS_BY_STATUS("Completed", "FULL")}

We put those same MEL commands into a History View to make it easy to see during a visit or phone call. You can print it, too. 🙂

Are you able to get Completed Appts to populate? I have tried with no success. The library states that the only arguments for status are "scheduled, canceled, no show, and arrived".

What version are you on? We are on 12.2.2 but do not use the PM side so I wonder if that is why we are not able to see "Completed" appts?? Does your user library include "completed" as an argument for APPTS_BY_STATUS? Mine does not.

description

Lists appointments for the patient that match the specified status.

type

Data symbol function

syntax

APPTS_BY_STATUS(status["FULL"])

arguments

status

scheduled

canceled

no show

arrived

full

FULL

when to evaluate

Continuously

returns

A list of appointment dates and times for appointments with a status specified by the argument. If "FULL" is used, the type of visit and provider/resource is also returned.

comment

It is important to match the status name exactly when using this function. Any other status or a misspelled status returns no data.

examples

{APPTS_BY_STATUS("no show")}

10/02/2000 1:45 pm

11/01/2000 2:15 pm

{APPTS_BY_STATUS("no show","FULL")}

returns

10/02/2000 1:45 pm, Routine Foot Care(P) - 30, River Oaks Main, Truman MD, Lawrence G

11/01/2000 2:15 pm, SCHEDULE NOTES, River Oaks Main, Casey MD, Ben G

where used

Chart: letter and handout templates, text components, quick text

We are on CPS 12.3, but have been using this same letter since we started on CPS 9.0. We do use the PM side so maybe that is the difference?? Our library says the same as yours and does not include verbiage for a Completed status.

It has been so long since I set this up, but I think we had to make some changes to the appt status in Admin in order for this to work. I have attached a screen shot for you.

We also did what Julie suggested and made an Appt History view in the chart.
