another.
This is useful if a document was misfiled into an incorrect chart.

EMR Attachements.
In the next screen you will select the patient whose chart contains the
misfiled attachment. If the you have brought up this utility while you
are in a patient's chart, then the name of the patient will automatically
be added in the blank. If you wish to change the name of the patient, then
click in the blank and start typing the name of the patient.

on Finish.
The attachments will now be in the chart of the Destination Patient.
- Fax Multiple Attachments:
This utility allows one to fax multiple attachments. If you are in a
patient's chart and would like to fax a letter, then you can only attach
one attachment to the
letter.
With this utility, you can choose to fax as may attachments as you would
like.

Multiple Attachments, you will be taken to the next screen where

If the Provider has not been entered in the Support Data, then you can
add the Provider by clicking on the + sign. This will bring up the
Provider entry screen where you would add all of the pertinent data
including the address and fax number.
Once you have chose the Destination Provider, click on Finish to
fax the attachments.
- View All Unread Faxes:
This utility allows all users to view faxes that have been sent to the
providers for their review. An illustration will help one understand
why this utility is useful. Let us say, that a patient calls and would
like to know the result of a CT scan or a pathology report. If this
report has been sent to a provider for review, then staff members cannot
see the report since they cannot see a provider's Unread Faxes. By
clicking on View All Unread Faxes
one is taken to a screen that shows all of the reports that are
in all of the providers' Unread Faxes.
