To update a duplicate patient record
How to get there
-
Use the Patient Search field to access a patient's record.
Notes:
-
If the last patient record you accessed since you last logged on is the correct patient's record, you do not need to re-enter the patient's name in the Patient Search field.
-
You can include inactive patients in the search results by setting the Include inactive patients toggle switch to On.
Important: If the Access Confidential Patient window displays after selecting the patient from the search results, it means the patient is a confidential patient and you don't have the security rights to access their record. To continue, a user with the security rights must enter their credentials into the window. Once given access, you have access to the patient's information until your session expires.
