Records & Referrals
Create request templates, send record and referral requests by fax or email, and track them to completion.
Overview
Medical Records and Referrals are two sides of the same workflow: a template-driven request sent to a facility, tracked until it's fulfilled. Medical record requests retrieve documentation from other providers; referral requests send patients to specialists with the context they need.
Templates first
Build templates under Medical Records → Templates and Referrals → Templates. A template defines the request document; patient fields (name, date of birth, member ID) fill in automatically at send time. Most organizations need only a handful of templates.
Sending a request
- 1
Choose New Request
Pick the template and the patient. The request document assembles itself.
- 2
Pick the facility
Select from your Facilities & Providers directory — fax number or email comes with it.
- 3
Send
Delivery goes out by fax or email through the platform and is logged on the patient timeline.
- 4
Track under Requests
Every request has a status; open ones stay visible until documents come back.
Returned faxes arrive in the Communications inbox — link them to the patient and the request is complete, with the document attached to the record.
The facilities directory
Facilities & Providers is the shared address book behind this module: hospitals, specialist offices, and their fax numbers and emails. Keep it current and every request addresses itself.
