This menu allows you to customize your experience with SynaMed's application.
| Functional Items | Description |
|---|---|
| [ Physician's Profile ] | This option will only appear when you log in as a physician. In here the physician is able to maintain his/her own physician profile information. All fields marked with an * are required. |
| [ Maintain Staff ] | For physicians only, you can assign rights to your staff. |
| [ Favorite Codes ] | You can create your favorite Encounter Forms here. |
| [ Maintain User Group ] | You can bunch together a group of users into one container called a group. You can use this to assign tasks to that group with one click of a button instead of selecting multiple users for each task. (Support for groups for messaging is coming soon). User group names cannot have spaces and must be treated like a userID. |
| [ Maintain Patient Group ] | In certain instances, you may want to group together patients. This function is based on the same principals of [ Maintain User Groups ] above. |
| [ Subjective Templates ] | This option allows you to customize templates or configure default templates for use in the [ Subjective ] section when [ Conducting an Office Visit ]. |
| [ PMH Templates ] | This option is similar to that of Subjective templates above, but it is designed to customize and maintain PMH templates. |
| [ Procedure Templates ] | This option is similar to that of Subjective templates above, but it is designed to customize and maintain Procedure templates. |
| [ Patient Notes ] | You can edit items in your [ ROS ] and [ Physical Exam ] tabs here. |
| [ Manage Dropdowns ] | All dropdown menus and their respective lists are maintained here. |
Note: SynaMed utilizes permissions control and a layered sharing design to restrict access when appropriate.
- Permissions is the assignment of access rights between physicians and other physicians and staff.
- The layered sharing design is separated into System, Group and User
scopes. The layered sharing design is used to share items such as
templates and dropdown lists.
- System - Everyone with a SynaMed account can view and use an item.
- Group - Only people with the same practice group can view and use an item.
- User - Only the person who created the item can view and use it.
FAQ:
Are there any restrictions to the kind of character and the length I use for a custom cpt code?
It has a maximum length of 15 characters, it should not contain any funky characters, especially spaces, commas, dashes, or colons, and it should not be a substring (part of) a real cpt code.
