Readmitting a Patient
Patient -> Demographics -> Intake tab
While most patients will be admitted to your clinic and permanently discharged following treatment, some may return. To avoid the duplication and extra work involved in creating a new record each time a patient returns, ClinicTracker creates what are called Phases of Treatment. The original admission and discharge represents Phase 1 of treatment. In order to create phase 2, follow these steps:
Bring up the Demographics record for the patient. Remember to check the Show Discharged checkbox to find the name.
On the top menu bar, select the Readmit Patient option. Confirm that you want to create the new Phase of Treatment.

To finish creating the additional Phase, modify any existing information, complete all required fields, and save.
Once you complete this process, you will see an additional menu item on the top of the form, labeled Treatment Phase.

When you click on Treatment Phase, a list of all the available Treatment Phases for the current patient will display. To toggle between Phases, simply select the Phase you wish to view from that menu.
Note:
Whenever a patient has multiple Treatment Phases, the Treatment Phase Menu will show at the top of all data entry forms. If a Phase item is grayed-out, it is set as type Intake and therefore cannot receive paperwork.
