You can configure the default settings for imaging clinics by going to Admin > Work > Configure Work Types. The options here include:

 

  • General
    • Auto-attach non-Meddbase ordered images to patient record - Orders with patient information will attach to the patient record regardless of whether the order was requested via Meddbase
    • Assign completed reports to reporter's default assistant - Once a report is completed within Meddbase the report is automatically assigned to the radiologists default assistant (As defined in Settings > Preferences)
    • Assign work items to Radiographers on patient arrival - When a patient is arrived for an imaging appointment the attending radiographer is alerted with a message in the ‘Pacs Inbox’
    • Default Image Provider (Receiving Application) - The name of your PACS provider

 

 

  • Unknown Patients
    • Default Policy - The default security policy assigned to patients who are created by the PACS who did not previously exist in Meddbase
    • Default Charge Band - The default charge band assigned to patients who are created by the PACS who did not previously exist in Meddbase

 

  • Radiography Roles - Each Modality can have an associated Radiography Role. These are only used if Radiography Roles are enabled in the settings above. When an appointment is arrived that contains a PACS service, the 'Receiving Facility' code is used to find the Role and assign an imaging request.

Place the name of the modality in the left hand side and the role who should receive this work on the right. If you only have one role or one modality use the top row to assign all PACS items to a single role
