Here's the visit summary handout I have developed. It utilizes the Patient Instructions CCC form, plus pulls committed assessments from the CPOE-CCC form as well as current problems, meds, allergies, next scheduled appointment, and signed orders.

Any suggestions, comments, additions will be welcome

One comment that comes up often is how to deal with dx that should possibly not appear on a printed form such as abuse, or std. Our current thought is that those should be the 50% not required to print.

That looks pretty good Don, thanks. One qustion do you need to also have any lab results which have been recieved in the last 3 days? If so the below information should complete the form.

Labs and Tests received in the past 3 days:

{labs = GET_FLOWSHEET_VALUES('Enterprise\Printing\Chart_Summary\Current-Labs')

tody = str(._todaysdate)

if labs <> "" then

lablist = getfield(labs, "\n", "")

sz = size(lablist)

list = ""

for i = 1, i <= sz, i = i + 1 do

dt = ""

lab = lablist[i]

labsize = size(lab)

if labsize > 0 then

dtloop = 0

dtptr = 1

while (dtloop = 0) and (dtptr + 11 <= labsize)

dtbegin = match( lab, dtptr,"/") -2

dt = sub(lab, dtbegin, 10)

if sub(lab, dtbegin + 10, 1) = ")" then dtloop = 1 endif

dtptr = dtbegin + 3

endwhile

dur = durationdays(dt, tody)

if (dur < 4) and (dtloop = 1) then

list = list + lablist[i] + "\n\r"

endif

endfor

if list <> "" then list else "No lab results." endif

else

"No lab results."

endif}

Don,

Question for you regarding Orders:

Can you indicate how to get any comments/instructions written on the Orders to also translate? I've been struggling with this but it should be very simple.

Thanks, this is great.

Do you know how MQIC credits the use of the Visit Summary, ie does it need to be saved in the chart?

We're guessing you need to check the "record printing in chart" which of course generates another document.

Hi Teresa - We haven't gone down that road.

By an audit event triggered when it is printed. No need to use the checkbox to record the handout in the note. The latest releases/KB updates from GE allow the use of an action button to print the handout directly from a VFE form.

I remember reading that Peds and Prenatal Patient Instructions, generated from the CCC Print Instructions counts toward Meaningful Use. However, I cannot recall where I found the documentation.

Does anyone know the process to get *Patient Instructions to count and be relevant for peds or prenatal? Thanks!!

We are currently looking at alternate wording for the PEDS side, but I don't have anything definite on it yet. I really think that what we have here will work in a general sense, until we have something better/CMS changes their minds/etc.
