Wondering how I could use this MEL code to display a newly added problem in an encounter and the assessment of that problem beside it. Any ideas are greatly appreciated, I'm kind of stuck. We currently use a data display to show and document what type of assessment was given (new,improved,unchanged,deteriorated,comment only) but the actual typed assessment doesn't display it. I know using this {LIST_ASSESSMENT('DX OF','CHOLERA','ICD10-S34.9')} will display what is typed in the assessment/comment box, but is there a way to use that to display any new problem without specifically using the (ProbType, ProbDesc, ProbCode).

There is an Assessments object in the mldefs files that you could access. But I don't know when it gets updated. Might not show until the clinical list changes are signed. I've only used it to show the most recent assessments from a previous visit. You will probably have to use it in conjunction with the _MasterProb object since Assessments only has a problem identifier and not the actual problem name spelled out.

It seems like it would be easy to have a MEL piece that would just go grab the assessment, assessment comments and assessment date and display it beside the problem. Almost like when you first add a new problem and enter something into that comment box it'll display/document with that beside it.

Would you mind sharing what you have to pull the most recent assessments from a previous visit.

I found what I was looking for it was in the help section of Centricity, incase other would like to know here it is:

example 1

{LISTASSESSNEW( )}

Assessed CHOLERA as unchanged - Harry Winston MD

{LISTASSESSNEW(‘full’)}

Assessed CHOLERA as unchanged - Pt. is still experiencing acute symptoms. - Harry Winston MD

Has anyone had any success with not just displaying this but utilizing it to add a one click button to assess an existing problem? In other words, I currently have a dynamic listbox that displays all current problems in the format of diagnosis, description, and icd9 code. my thought is to be able to check that box, then click a button to mark that problem as "improved". I would have another box to mark it as "deteriorated". I think it must be some combination of Prob_after and Mel_add_assessment. Any ideas??? Thanks!
