Is there a way to do a bulk letter mailing to patients on a specific inquiry and have the letter pull the patient's address or print on address labels?

Do you have Crystal Reports? This should be fairly easy to accomplish with Crystal Reports, as you can even format it fairly easily for address labels.

If you do not have Crystal Reports, then inside Centricity they have a Crystal Reports writer, which also can get the job done, but it is not as straight forward as in the standalone application itself. You can also do this, is SSRS (SQL Server Reporting Services), but again the formatting is not quite as easy as in Crystal Reports, but it's not that hard either.

I am not aware of any way in GE Logician to do the grouping required for bulk rate (and associated discount) mass mail merge. I am referring to processing completely within GE Logician, and the recording/saving of the output letter. You can create a custom Crystal Report that would accomplish this process.

If you know the majority of your patients are in a specific 3-digit group, you could do three processes.

Inquiry/Select (then merge print the letter) for each of the following:

(a) Whatever your primary rule, like Appt Date = 01/22/2019 and

Zip Code greater than "02099" [to find the "021"] and

Zip Code less than "022" [to close the "021" group"

(b) same first rule and

Zip Code less than "021"

(c) same first rule and

Zip Code greater then "021"

For me, probably two-thirds of patients are in the "021" zip prefix group.
