Templates
The best time saver Default template (except TSWF, Usability AIM) TSWF Usability AIM Form Generic example
13
Templates: Advantages
Most efficient documentation process
Minimizes duplicative efforts Standardizes documentation process Configure readable notes Familiarity facilitates efficiency Promotes patient safety Improved coding compliance
14
Template Management Purge unnecessary Templates From Template Management: Select ‘Default Encounter Template to set a Default Encounter Right click to remove the template from your favorites
15
Template Management
Make the most of improved Template Management: Use Edit to modify existing templates Add Order sets Use “Add To Default Template” to modify your default template while documenting an encounter.
16
Templates: Approved templates
Borrow don’t build templates. Look for “approved” templates in the Enterprise Folders based on specialty.
17
The TSWF
The Tri Service Workflow (TSWF) Workflow concept built around a core AIM form Team documentation effort “Live” Document Takes advantage of effective AHLTA features, overcomes
AHLTA challenges to create: “One form fits all” concept Manageable Problem List, Medication List, Family History Readable notes AHLTA down-time solution CPG compliance Coding guidelines 18
AHLTA Tri-Service Workflow
Tri-Service AIM Form
Provider takes over note Provider reviews tech input
19 19
Usability AIM Form
Alternative to the TSWF “One form fits all” concept Presents data in easy to select format Includes care guidelines Does not include team documentation concept Not Tri-Service approved content No longer updated
20
Usability AIM Form
Usability AIM form: “One template fits all” Do not Default.
21
Usability AIM Form
Usability AIM Form: Presents data in easy to select formats
22
Usability AIM Form
It even includes care guidelines
23
Generic Template Generic template example. Based on Medcin terms. Advantages vs Disadvantages.
24
Team Documentation
Procedures, lists, med recon, questionnaires, etc Use a common template Make sure you take over note correctly Support staff can document all but the HPI
25
Take Over the Note
To assume ownership of the support staff encounter note, click the ‘Edit This Note…’ button. “Add Additional S/O Note…..” creates a duplicate note under the support staff note.
26
Take Over the Note
The Provider can edit the support staff’s note accordingly.
27
Take Over the Note
The Provider has taken ownership of the note and the note output is not duplicated. The support staff’s documentation goes to the “Change History” portion of the note (next screen shot)
28
Take Over the Note
Staff portion of the note goes to “CHANGE HISTORY” in small font for audit purposes but is also retained within the provider’s documentation. Support staff and providers should work off the same template when possible and practical so the provider can see during documentation what has already been documented by the corpsman. 29
