When you encounter inbound allergy degrade tasks in EMIS Web, it is crucial to process them correctly to resume prescribing for the patient. Here’s how:
Accessing Degraded Allergy Information
First, navigate to the Workflow Manager in EMIS Web, and select GP2GP from the navigation pane. Under the Records Received heading, choose Allergy Degrade. This section lists all allergy degrades that require attention. Select the appropriate task and click View on the ribbon to display the Workflow Manager Task screen.
Review and Update Allergy Records
- If an allergy entry is correct, replace the degraded item with the corresponding EMIS Web clinical term.
- To do this, choose the degraded allergy entry, click Add Allergy, and search for the correct allergy term.
- Enter the required details, including the date of entry and any descriptive text, to accurately record the allergy information.
Note: Completing allergy degrade tasks promptly will reinstate your ability to prescribe and issue medication, enhancing both practice efficiency and patient safety.
Final Steps
Once the degrade entries are processed, save and apply your changes. Ensure all degraded allergy entries are converted, as prescribing prevention remains in place for any unresolved tasks.
By ensuring the accuracy and integrity of allergy information, you are safeguarding patient care and adherence to clinical protocols.
