Hello all, Here are two replies I've received so far:
1. We set up a provider called: NL for Non-Local. We enter the registration and orders with NL as the submitting and the real docs name in the comment field, along with a fax number for resulting. We then fax a form to the ordering NL docs office for them to fill out - telling them that for us to be able to do testing in the future we need this data - (name, address, license # etc). We verify and then add them to our DB. Sounds like what you are doing. We also have someone who follows up if there is no return fax with the requested info. It seems to work well. I am Lab so I don't see the MIS side of it but we have used this system for a while.

We experienced this same thing. At the time, new providers were only entered by Medical Records, so Admissions, DI, Rehab, Lab would use DNOS and then MR would put the provider into the provider dictionary etc., then give to ADM to correct. We had the same problem with some DI scans being completed and the report going out the same day, so we asked that certain areas be given access to the provider dictionary. This has worked well for us. The DI department puts in a skeleton provider and then MR comes behind and adds all the pertinent address/fax/etc. numbers.

For the longest time we have used a generic "OTHER" as the ordering physician (in order to get the patient registered and taken care of quickly), with research and Provider dictionary entries made by our Medical Staff Office after the fact, and sometimes rather 'haphazardly' at that. Because of the late entries, RAD reports often do not get sent to the ordering provider (but get 'sent' somehow to Dr Other), and with the new requirement for NPI numbers and claims potentially rejecting for no NPI, among other things, we know we need to find a solution to this situation. Is this situation experienced by any of you? If so, how does your process work? I'd welcome any suggestions, comments, or ideas.....by the way, we are Magic 5.5 SR3. Thanks in advance for any input, Julie Carlson Meditech Systems Analyst Cascade Valley Hospital and Clinics Arlington, WA 98223 (360)435-2133 ext 5017 ************************************************************************ ****** DISCLAIMER - Email is not considered secure.
