Hi, has anyone actually made the change of masking all but the last four digits of a patient's social security number on their Test Order form report? All of our applications are moving towards this and we are looking to make this change in Centricity. The name of our form tstorder.rpt. I believe it's an original GE form. Would anyone be willing to share their form if you currently have this change in place? Or would you be willing to walk me through editing it Crystal Reports?

Thanks for any help.

Not sure if this will help you, but we mask our socials in Centricity EMR with the following function in one of our usrlib files:

{fn fnSSNMask(ssnPass){
retMask = "XXX-XX-"+ sub(ssnPass,8,4)
return retMask
}
}

You can call it in your form code like so:

fnSSNMask(PATIENT.SOCSECNO)

This is GE's original tstorder.rpt with two changes; the SSN is masked, and the policy # of the primary insurance is suppressed if the policy name has "Medicare" in it.

I've also put a copy of the tstorder.rpt on the new CHUG Marketplace. The version I placed out there also presents the SSN as XXX-XX-1234.

Thank you all for your responses!

gpincomb - I'm hopeful that your version is exactly what we are looking for! Thank you, thank you! And thanks for making this available on the marketplace. I'm going to test it out tonight.
