Patient allergies can easily be pulled from your EHR and be placed into Adit’s Patient Forms. When patients select an allergy in their form, that data will then be imported back into their patient chart.
To add allergies to a patient form:
Navigate to the Patient Forms module.
In the top navigation menu, click Form Manager
Click the Create Form button to create a new form, or click Form Name, or Edit icon on an existing form you want to update.
On the Form building page, you will see a tool bar on the left side. This tool bar provides different types of fields that you can use in your form.
Go to the custom fields section and drag the Allergies field into your form.
You’ll see a pop-up appear, explaining that this field will automatically populate a list of Allergies based on the master list in your EHR. Select Yes to continue.
Once the field is placed on your form, the right hand column will appear showing the field properties.
Field Label - use this field to write the question you want to ask the patient
Hidden - you can hide this question on the patient form
Required - you can make this field mandatory for patients
Copy - this option is disabled for all custom fields because you can only have one type of custom field in each form
PMS Field - this field allows you to map where the data should write into your EHR. Since this is a custom field, it will be automatically mapped to the allergies in the patient’s chart
Allergy Name - these are automatically pulled based on the allergies available in your EHR.
Reset - use this If you want to start over and remove any updates you made
Once you are satisfied with your form and are ready to start using it, go to the top navigation and select either Save or Save & Exit
