Patients (inactive cards)

Patients (inactive cards)

The data of all died patients, who used to use the services of a healthcare facility are available in "Patients (inactive cards)" functionality in the menu of "Registration" application. After selecting this functionality there is displayed the search engine of patients.

It is possible to find the patient by any combination of the following criteria:

  • inquiry – in the field you can enter any data identifying of the searched patient - the system will try to match data entered in this field to the beginning of the name, the beginning of any member of surname, PESEL number and the date of birth of the patient; capitalization does not matter
  • first name – in the field you can enter the first name or the beginning of the name of searched patient; capitalization does not matter
  • surname – in the field you can enter the surname or the beginning of the surname of searched patient; capitalization does not matter
  • PESEL – in the filed you can enter PESEL number of searched patient; after entering PESEL number and going to the next field of search form, there is verification of entered PESEL number - if entered PESEL is invalid then the frame of PESEL number’s field turns red
  • date of birth – in the field you can enter the date of birth of searched patient; after clicking on the birth date’s field, there is displayed a calendar of date selection
  • patient type – in this field you can choose the type of patient
  • error code in patient’s declaration – in the field you can specify the error’s code in the patient’s declaration (to find patients with a declaration with a specific error code)
  • medical records location – location of paper medical records of patient
  • home address – in fields you can enter: the name or the beginning of name of city, the name or the beginning of the street name, house number, flat number of searched patient; capitalization does not matter
  • include previous names/addresses – When you select this option at searching, system will also take into account previous names and addresses of the patient (if they were changed, eg. surname may have been changed in the system after patient’s marriage, the address might have changed in the system after changing the place of residence by the patient)
  • Patients without PESEL - when this option is selected, at search the system will consider only the patients who do not have a PESEL number
  • Patients without declarations - when this option is selected, at search the system will consider only patients who do not have the declaration (withdrawn declarations are not consider)

After entering the search criteria and pressing the "Search" button there may be three situations:

  • if there is no inactive patient meets all entered search criteria, then the search engine will display a message about the lack of patients meeting these criteria
  • if there is exactly one inactive patient meets all entered search criteria or the one owning a card of scanned number, it will automatically switch to the card of that patient
  • if there is more than one inactive patient meets all criteria entered in the search form, then the search engine will display a list of found patients, and at each of them there is a button to go to patient’s card

Card of inactive patient consists of the following tabs:

  • Patient
  • Contact
  • Insurance
  • Declarations
  • Referrals
  • Authorizations
  • Cautions
  • Information
  • History
  • Payments
  • Documents
  • Visits
  • Employment
  • Drugs
  • EHR
  • Stays
  • Printouts
  • Parameters
  • Prescriptions
  • CTC
  • Orders
  • Guardians
  • COVID-19
  • Vaccinations

Tabs have exactly the same content as the corresponding tabs in the case of active patients, but data presented here are only for viewing (without editing). If the patient has by mistake entered date of death, he can be restored from inactive to active patients by pressing the "Reactivate patient" at the bottom of each tab of the patient’s card (unless patient with the same PESEL number as the one you are trying to reactivate has been entered into the system). At the time of reactivation, patient returns to the search of patients, because the patient’s card is no longer inactive and should not be visible in "Patients (inactive card)" functionality.
