General Consents Show Patient Empanelment +/- Provider
Trying to figure out your patient’s primary care physician?
When your patient is admitted, under the Documentation section, look for a note type labeled Consents General. This may include a scanned document with identification of 1) if the patient is a DHS or non-DHS empanelled patient and 2) who that empanelment provider might be.
Use this information for discharge planning. Remember, empanelled patients should follow-up with their empanelment provider, not in CCC-Post-Discharge Clinic (Clinic A). CCC-PDC should be reserved for un-empanelled patients (call Clinic A for an appointment).
The “empanelment” provider listed in the patient’s banner bar is not reliable at this time.
