Treatment Plan Screen
The first screen you will encounter after clicking Tx Plan is the Treatment Plan screen. Use this screen to enter a treatment plan for your patient, and see how your patient is progressing with the treatments.
As you enter your treatment, you will see your choices appear as a sentence in the black information bar at the top of the screen. This sentence will be used to relay the treatment plan to the front desk staff in the Treatment Plan section of the Patient Checkout screen.
Frequency of Treatment – The first section on this page allows you to choose the frequency of the treatment. Choose from one to five times a day, week, or month, or choose to prescribe the treatment daily.
Click the "Reset" button to reset both the frequency and length of treatment.
Length of Treatment - This section allows you to choose the length of the prescribed treatment. Choose a number from one to nine, and select days, weeks, or months.
NOTE:
Length and frequency of treatment calculations are based on a standard 5 day work week, 4 work weeks per month, and 20 work days per month.
Click the "Reset" button to reset both the frequency and length of treatment.
