This is essentially an engine that allows incorporation of rule sets to check/monitor/report clinical information (such as vitals, history information, medications, procedures, labs, etc.) in real time. It has been built in a fashion to be very flexible and support internationalization.
- 1) Clinical Decision Support ('Clinical Reminders') widget can be found in the top right of the patient summary screen.
- Shows if an action is due soon, due now, or over due.
- Some actions offer a link (this then shows a screen where results can be stored). Note these are to store action results that are not found elsewhere in the OpenEMR database.
- 'Edit' button opens a screen:
- 'Main' tab shows all pertinent actions (whether completed or due).
- 'Plans' tab shows all pertinent actions (whether completed or due) organized by plan.
- 'Admin' tab allows per patient customization of the plans and rules.
- 2) The patient reminder ('Patient Reminders') widget can be found in bottom left (above vitals widget) of the patient summary screen.
- Shows if a reminder action is due soon, due now, or over due; and shows if a reminder has been sent.
- 'Edit' button opens a screen:
- 'Main' tab provides more details on when reminder was created and sent (and which medium it was sent).
- 'Admin' tab allows per patient customization of the rules.
- 3) The reporting for the clinical rules module can be found at Reports->Clinic->Quality Measures.
- Lots of options for reporting clinic-wide rules results.
- Also place for creating the CQM and AMC results (note the AMC and CQM rules are still under development)
- Can also produce PQRI (this is a way to show CQM results) formatted results.
- 4) Patient Reminder Admin page can be found at Administration->Patient Reminders.
- Shows the active reminders.
- The batch to send the reminders to patients can be run from this script by clicking the Send Reminder Batch button(only works for email so far).
- 5) Rule alert settings Admin page can be found at Administration->Alerts.
- Allows quick toggling of active/passive alerts and patient reminders for each rule.
- 6) The Clinical Decision Rules (CDR) editor GUI can be found at Administration->Rules.
- Full support to add and modify rules.
- 7) The clinical reminder and patient reminder feature(s) can be toggled off/on in the Administration->Globals->CDR section.
