SSMT: OrderResults-v11

Description

The 'OrderResults-v11' content category allows you to define your orderable and resultable items and establish the appropriate relationship between them. Some orderable items such as labs may have one or more resultable items associated with them and some orderable items such as radiology typically have only one resultable item associated with them. The 'OrderResults-v11' content category allows you to set some basic context and populate some main fields associated with both orderable and resultable items. It is a key category that will help create the foundation for your Orderable Item dictionary and is typically derived from a compendium extract provided by your LIS, RIS, 3rd party lab vendor, or any diagnostic system that will be sending results or receiving orders from EHR.

Stored Procedures used:

• Extracting data: ImpGetOrderANDResult
• Loading data: ImpSetOrderAndResults

Column Listing and Description

• Order Code - this is the unique identifier for the orderable item and is limited to 10 characters (alpha-numeric). The order code is typically the primary identifier used for inbound result interface matching and outbound order matching so be sure to honor the codes supplied to you by our LIS, RIS, or other 3rd party lab vendor. If the test is being built as an In Office test or not referenced in any interface then you may define your own naming convention for this field.

• Order Name - this is the name of the orderable item and if no display name is defined in the OID - Orderable Item Dictionary then this will also function as the name displayed in the EHR.

   Data Type:  VarChar(255)
   Possible Values:  Free Text

• Order Mnemonic - this is also limited to 10 characters (alpha-numeric) and some external lab vendors actually define a short and meaningful alpha description for it. If ever given only a code for an orderable item it is best practice to have the mnemonic value mirror the entry code value.

• OIDMode

   *  Active - This means the OID entry is active and available to users
   *  Draft - This means that the OID entry is editable in the dictionary, but users cannot see the entry.  
      This would be used if you were in the process of completing entries and didn't want them viewable.
   *  No Longer Used - This essentially means it's inactive.

• When To Charge

   *  Never - The order will never charge for the test.  This is used when the laboratory bills the patient 
   and you are not collecting any fees for the service other than normal office charges
   *  On Order - This will create a charge as soon as the order is created.  This is typically illegal for a lab 
   result since you are not supposed to charge until the results are received and the test have actually been 
   performed.  In some cases the patient may never go to the lab or the tests results may never get returned. 
   *  Upon Completion  - this will create a charge as soon as the order has been completed. The completion 
   behavior is different based on the AutoCompleteFLAG
   *  On Collection - This is used when your organization charges for blood draws or specimen collection.
