Current Patients
The Current Patients tab provides access to patient charts through browsing versus individually searching for patients. The patient list consists of patients for whom you are designated as their primary nephrologist or for whom you have been granted covering rights by the patient’s primary nephrologist. An APP has access to their supervising nephrologists’ patients for those facilities where the APP is credentialed.
Data for the patient includes last name, first name, age, DOB, gender, phone number, facility name, in-center hemodialysis schedule for an ICHD patient, the modality for peritoneal dialysis or home hemodialysis patients, and the patient’s primary nephrologist name if you are not the primary nephrologist. The list is sorted alphabetically by the patient’s last name. A last name alphabetized navigation shortcut is available at the top of the screen. Clicking on a letter will take you to the appropriate section. The active letter will be highlighted in green. When scrolling through the list of letters, the active letter will be updated.
