The Reconciling Outside Immunizations workflow has been updated to help ensure the most correct data is reconciled into the patient’s chart.
-
When an outside immunization is identified as Similar to an Existing Immunization documented in the chart, you can’t merge the details.
-
If you identify the details of the external immunization are more clinically accurate, replace the existing historical immunization with the external information.
-
-
To help you accurately review and reconcile immunizations, use the Expand All button to expand the rows and review details of external administrations.
Example:
-
If the patient reports that they’ve received a tetanus immunization through another organization:
-
You’ll add a historical immunization administration on the patient’s chart as a placeholder.
-
Include as much detail as possible, but you can’t record an exact immunization date or lot number.
-
-
After querying Care Everywhere, you’ll receive a similar immunization administration from the organization that administered the tetanus immunization, including the administration date, dose, lot number, injection site and manufacturer.
-
Replace the historical administration with the external administration.
