In
DataPipe, Case Management is covered by a series of
modules including Clinic Visits, Medical Progress Notes,
Injury and Illness, Absences, Medical Summary and possibly
the Workers Comp or Disability Guidelines Modules.
Additionally, there will be several reports included with
this group.
Detailed Overview:
DataPipe is a fully integrated system, which means
that “core” enterprise demographic data is shared across
the system and many modules link to one another providing
a convenient tool for reviewing patient or employee
medical, safety and industrial hygiene records. The term
“Case Management” generally means different things to
different people. Since it is a process rather than a
single function, we don’t try to roll it into a
one-size-fits all module.
In DataPipe case managers can decide which
modules to include in the process and then menus can be
customized to include the forms and reports that make
sense for their requirements. Since the system is
integrated case managers can conveniently review cost
information, medical records, progress notes and other
case details. Case managers can even compare actual lost
workdays with typical industry averages for similar kinds
of cases, based on ICD-9 codes.
In the Medical Progress Notes Module, use
the filtering tool to sort the records by almost any
criteria. Step through an employee’s medical progress
notes to quickly review case history and as long as you
have the appropriate permissions, lock the records when
the review is completed.
Absences Track Lost Work Days and log when
and why employees are absent from work.
Patient/Employee Medical Summary This is a
user configurable module that pulls together related
medical information about an employee or patient in the
convenient form. Links to all case management and medical
modules.
Input the employee ID number, press the
“Get Tests” Button then click on the date to review the
actual record detail. This gathers a patient’s complete
medical history and allows for convenient information
access.
Clinic Visits Module Track clinic visits by
employee ID number. Includes date, time, purpose,
disposition, diagnostic codes and services. Automatically
pass billing information to accounting system.
Links to case number when applicable and
provides for logging physical elements and vital signs.
Enter detailed medical problems information
and SOAP notes.
The last page on most forms includes an
area for linking photos and other documents and also user
defined items.
