Detailed Clinic Configuration Instructions:
The program is in a sort of an intermediate state; it doesn't edit PIMS clinics directly, but can be linked to them if you want appointments and check-ins to show up in PIMS. This program can work without ever being linked to PIMS clinics.
If you need to use PIMS clinics, here is how you do the set-up:
0. First, make sure you have BSDXRPC in your menu path and that you have BSDXZMGR for Sched GUI set-up and DG SUPERVISOR TO set up PIMS clinics on roll and scroll.
1. Create the PIMS clinics using SDBUILD menu in VISTA. The GUI uses the following fields from the Hospital Location file
- Clinic Name
- Inactivation Date/Reactivation Date for deciding whether to display it.
- Default Provider multiple for populating the default providers
- Division (not currently used, but will be in the future)
2. Create the resources in the GUI, and tie each of them to the clinics as needed.
3. For each resource, you need to add authorized users. These users must hold the BSDXZMENU key or else, they won't show up. You may see users with XUPROGMODE. These will always show up.
4. Create Resource Groups, and add resources to them. Without this, the tree on the side won't show up; and without this tree, users cannot select a schedule.
5. Set-up At least 1 access type
6. Set-up At least 1 access group
7. Restart
8. Create slots for each of the clinics. You can save them as files and re-use them.
- Rebooking under certain conditions causes system hangs. Two issues: Program doesn't increment requested available appointment from VISTA, and doesn't deal properly with an appointment that doesn't have a access type (ie an appointment that is not in an Access block).
- Show Appointment Status in patient information windows. In other words show if the appointment is a future, checked-in, checked-out, or canceled status. (Oroville)
- Allow all users to access all clinics by default (EHS/PHH)
- Summary Schedule report based on Clinic Schedule report. Remove Phone, Address, Appointment Made By, and on fields.
