I will be happy to write the M interface part. This
is how I would see the function to be called. I would
be willing to adjust this if needed/wanted.
TMGADDURL(array)
;Purpose: Make a note wrapper around a URL
;Input: array with input info -- PASS BY REFERENCE
; Format as follows:
;
array("URL")="http://www.Myserver.org/Img1234.jpg";
; arrat("PATIENT IEN")=5678
; array("DATE")="1/1/1980" OPTIONAL
; array("DOC TYPE")="PROGRESS NOTE"
; array("AUTHOR")="WELBY,MARCUS" -- OPTIONAL
; array("ENTERED BY")="STAFFER,HELPFUL" -- OPTIONAL
;Output -- a new TIU DOCUMENT record will be created
;Result -- 1 if OK, 0 if Error
So the steps that I see would need to be done are:
1. Setup a method for getting a document scanned, and
the image saved to a server.
2. Associated this image with the correct patient
3. Call the above function with the information array
filled with the correct information.
Again, any takers?
