What is the Chronological Record Sort Setting?
It often takes a whole team of care professionals to keep a patient healthy. As the patient’s provider you often find yourself storing copies of consultations and test results administered by other providers caring for your patient. Elation allows you to store these records in the patient’s chart and sort patient records by:- Patient Event Dates= shows what the patient has been up to, and sorts reports by document date
- Provider Activity Dates= shows what your practice has been up to, and sorts reports by filed date
