Note: Currently there is a limitation in Mozilla Firefox with displaying these Data Fields.
FollowUp Days
Each Category suggests a default number of FollowUp days. This time interval is configurable.
You can set the default Followup interval for each Category.
Reminders usually depend on the facility.
You can add a Reminder Letter for each reminder time duration.
The Reminder time is based on the Follow-up interval. For example, a value of (-30) indicates that the reminder is sent 30 days before the follow-up interval date. A value of (10) indicates that the reminder is sent 10 days after the follow- up interval date.
You can specify the reminder time by editing the desired Category and specifying the suggested reminder times based on the followup interval time. When you specify the first reminder followup interval, the consecutive reminder days values are auto populated with incremental values with each value greater than the previous one based on the time interval. (e.g. if user enters "-30" in Patient reminder 1 column, patient reminder columns 2 and 3 would be auto populated with "1" and "30" values.)
You can assign this value for the number of Reminders created for the specific facility.
Note: if a reminder time of 0 is specified, it indicates that the reminder letter needs to be sent on the day of the follow up appointment. If no value is specified, it indicates that there is no need of any reminder to be sent.
Deleting a Category
You can delete a Category by selecting the Category and clicking the Delete icon. An alert message appears confirming the deletion.
Note: Deleting a Category will affect all the existing reports created under that Category.
