The following changes to the Virginia EMR will be going into effect the morning of 01/03/2018 at 8:00 AM. These changes will not have any impact on functionality. The adjustments are being made to enhance the ability to collect information and to improve accuracy.
With the new section being added to the existing Virginia EMR form, the “Line-of-Duty Injury/Death Reporting” choice from the Incidents menu is being deactivated. For those agencies that have taken advantage of Form Manager access, you must add the “Line of Duty Injury” section to your custom form. While there are currently no validation rules in place for this section, state level rules may be added depending on the information we receive over the next several months. As for making the “Destination/Transferred to, Code:” field “read only” on your custom form if you use this field, we highly recommend taking this action to avoid any potential issues with Hospital Hub record access. For those agencies that use the Virginia Elite system exclusively, we recommend making sure all records created in Elite Field are posted prior to OEMS making these changes the morning of 01/03/2018. While no issues are anticipated, it is best practice to post existing records prior to any form changes being made. For questions, please contact support via email: support@oemssupport.kayako.com | |
