I was just wondering if the part on the prescription form where it’s written ‘Indication‘ is configurable for someone to provide a specific list of diagnoses for a clinician to choose from
Currently it’s not. I think it was something discussed in the past, but we went with the quicker option.
Do you think its something that we can design and propose those changes as Palladium before we develop it?
Yes. IIRC, the data model already supports coded diagnoses, but we stuck with the free-text indication to get things out the door fast. Technically, we just need to wire up a concept set or something like “all diagnoses“ and we could create the field. The harder part is that we use this “indication“ field everywhere: in the orders display, in the medications tab, in the dispensing app, probably in the service queues, etc. And all of those views will need to be updated to accomodate non-free text indications.
Thanks, Ian, this is quite helpful.
