Description/Details
CareGuides were built in v11 Enterprise EHR as a better, more efficient way for providers to place orders for a patient based on a specific diagnosis. Prior to v11, Quick Sets were used in a similar fashion. CareGuides allow providers to quickly and effectively create a "Plan of Care" for a specific problem while at the same time creating the desired Health Management Plan for the patient.
- Note: For versions up to 11.1.7 CareGuides cannot be moved from test to production. Therefore, clients are only activating them in production.
What Version or Release of CareGuides do I have?
- To Identify the CareGuide Version/Release installed in your system.
- Login to TWAdmin
- Phys Admin
- CareGuide Template Management
- Look at the Release Date in the Care Guide Grid to determine the Release Date (Version)
Implementation Approaches
- For groups who favor standardization they take them out of the box therefore there is no need to activate them in increments.
- For groups who want to modify them implement them in increments. This requires a great deal of time to review and receive input by providers or the champion physician. One approach is to take your top ICD9 billable codes and review/edit each Care Guide associated with them. Ensure that the build of OID are completed for these, as opposed to requiring the entire OID/OCD build is complete.
- For those groups who are really ambitious, they are making theirs from scratch for specific diagnoses.
- Some groups elect to activate all the delivered CareGuides for only the patient education and instructions portions.
