Demographics Tab Summary

To navigate to the patient Demographics chart tab, search for the chart from the E-Chart sidemenu. Get into the chart, and click on the Admin chart tab. Demographics is available as a subtab of the Admin chart tab.

The Demographics chart tab displays a dark grey header that will contain the name, chart status, age, date of birth, sex, home phone number, next appointment information, along with the medical record number.  

The next section on the Demographic chart tab is the brief medical header which lists the allergies, current medications, and current conditions. This area is driven by My Settings preferences. Following the medical header, users can utilize the remaining quick links to perform functions such as checking in the patient (Checkin), editing demographics (Edit Demo), seeing revisions to the chart demographics (Patient Revisions), or Add Alert Comments.

Users also have the ability to merge duplicate charts from the demographics chart tab. If the system finds a possible duplicate chart based on matching demographics, the possible duplicate chart(s) will display information such as  chart name, date of birth, and match rating. Users should open/display the chart that they wish to keep. Then, either checkmark the Select box for the appropriate chart that should be merged or click the Manual Search link to manually search for the chart that should be merged with the current one.
