What is the monitoring question? π€
The monitoring question is an important feature in the EHR (Electronic Health Record). It helps healthcare providers track their patients' progress. But what happens if the patient does not fill out this question? Letβs take a look!
Automatic processing of the monitoring question β³
If your patient does not fill out the monitoring question, it will automatically expire after one week. This means that after this period, you will no longer receive reminders about this specific question. This is useful, but also something to keep an eye on!
What does this mean for the progress chart? π
When the monitoring question is not answered, you will see this reflected in the progress chart. You will notice a blue line at the height of the red cross. This is a visual sign that your patient has not answered the monitoring question at that time. It is important to regularly check this chart so you can respond in time and support your patient as needed.
Conclusion π
Understanding the monitoring question and the related processes in the EHR is crucial for effective patient care. Always keep an eye on the progress chart to ensure you donβt miss any important information!
