Patient Admission Requests on Web

Patient Admissions allows Medical Directors to review and complete the patient admission process electronically.

Accessing Patient Admission Requests

Medical Directors can access Patient Admission requests through the task card on the Home page or Tasks > Patient Admission Requests menu. 

A pop-up message will appear in the upper right-hand corner of the screen when one or more requests have been flagged as needing priority review.

The message will contain a “Complete Patient Admission Request” link that will take you to the request when clicked.

Patient Admission Data

From the Patient Admission Request screen, the facility name and telephone number appear at the top, along with a list of patients. The patient’s name can be clicked to expand and review the patient's admission records. 

The records may contain the following data:

• Patient Name
• Modality
• Referral Date
• Status
• Associated Medical Records
• Patient Information
• Medical Questionnaire
• Referral Information

An orange flag signifies that the request has been flagged as needing immediate attention. The immediate request may contain the reason and facility notes.

Associated Medical Records

Patient records may include blue hyperlinks that can be clicked to obtain additional information about the patient. 

Under the “Associated Medical Records” section, FAST 4 records are sorted to the top of the list and have a star next to the name.

The Neurology Notes link will also be accessible if available. 

The status buttons will be green when items are complete.

Managing Requests

The Medical Director can either accept or deny the admission request. If the request is denied, a reason will be required. 

After the request has been acted upon, the response is sent to the Patient Placement System (PPS). The status will show as Acceptance Pending in OneView until a final decision is recorded in PPS.
