Hi everyone,

I want to add a quick text for a PT order, I have added the "type","category", and "description".... and now all I want to add is "comment". How do I skip "modifier", "dx" and "dx description" since I don't need that included?

{MEL_ADD_ORDER("TYPE","Category","description")} is what I have now.... please help!

You need to enter a blank and keep all the positions, just put blank double quotes, ""

MEL_ADD_ORDER(TYPE,CATEGORY,DESCRIPTION, MODIFIER,DIAGNOSIS CODE(S),DIAGNOSIS CODE DESCRIPTION(S),COMMENT,UNITS, PRIORITY,AUTHORIZING PROVIDER, ORDERDATE)

becomes

MEL_ADD_ORDER(TYPE,CATEGORY,DESCRIPTION, "","","",COMMENT,"", "","", "")

Often people leave the ORDERDATE as todays date like this

MEL_ADD_ORDER(TYPE,CATEGORY,DESCRIPTION, "","","",COMMENT,"", "","", str(._TODAYSDATE) )

regards,

Beverly

I tried following the advice given. I went into the VFE program and made a "run process" button with MEL_ADD_ORDER. I copied the order from that button and pasted it in as a quicktext, but it didn't work. Any suggestions?

Is the easiest way to use the function through a button in run-process?
