Surprised I've never come across needing to do this but the occasion has arose.

Thanks in advance.

No, there isn't an easy way to do this.

If you wanted to be really ambitious I think you could write an HL7 interface and use MEL to write a file to your linklogic in folder and update the demographics, but I have never tried anything like that.

That does sound ambitious.

Visual Signature Capture can update a subset of Registration and the Authorizations on the Additional tab and we are adding more registration fields as we upgrade the product. This workflow would involve designing a VFE template and then filling it out in the Visual Signature Capture product, which creates an HL7 HD file to update demographics. The Authorizations are a SQL update, not HL7.

If you could park the updates in an Observation term, you could launch the VSC template from a VFE form with those obs and it could pull in the Obs term values for the Demographic fields as defaults.

Sort of a roundabout way of doing it 🙂
