To manually change a patient's registration status within EMIS Web’s Workflow Manager, follow these steps:
Accessing the Workflow Manager
Begin by opening EMIS Web and navigating to the ‘Workflow Manager’. Ensure you have the necessary permissions to make changes to patient records.
Selecting the Patient
Locate the patient whose registration status needs updating. This can be done by using the search function to find the patient’s record, either by name, date of birth, or NHS number.
Updating Registration Status
Once the patient’s record is open, find the section related to registration status. From here, you can manually update the status to reflect changes such as moving areas, or changing the GP practice. Make sure to confirm changes before exiting the page.
"By updating patient registration status, practice administrators can ensure accurate record-keeping and streamlined communication with other healthcare professionals, significantly reducing the likelihood of administrative errors."
Remember, keeping patient records up-to-date helps in maintaining accurate clinical information and ensures seamless transitions between different care settings.
