System Administration: Patient Records

Create a radiology record

Opening and saving a hospital (PAS / HIS / EPR) record in Cris creates a radiology record.

Link records

Every radiology (Cris) record must be linked to a hospital (PAS / HIS / EPR) record.

Unlink records

Unlink records when a hospital (PAS / HIS / EPR) record and radiology (Cris) record have been linked in error, before events have been added.

Merge records

There should only be one radiology record for a patient in a Cris system (i.e. a group / consortium), and that record should be used by all sites in the group. Merging joins two radiology records from different hospitals.

Unmerge records

Records merged in error may have events and images which need to be re-assigned to the correct patient.
