Using the OrthoTrac Patient Flow Module
Before you can use the patient flow module, you must set up the display options. See Setting Up OrthoTrac Patient Flow Module Options for more information.
You must set up patient flow options on each computer in your OrthoTrac system.
To access patient flow from the main menu:
Click the Patient Flow button or select Functions > Patient Flow from the menu bar. Patient flow can also be accessed from the point-of-care module, which is available for an additional cost.
The Preparing to Archive message window is displayed, if you are the first user opening the patient flow module for the day. The window asks if you want to archive all patient flow records and reload the list with today's appointments. Click Yes.
The type of patient flow window that is displayed on a particular computer depends on the settings you selected in the Patient Flow Setup and Maintenance window. The displays for either the patient check-in computer or for staff computers include both photographic and non-photographic versions.
