Assign an Intake from the EMR Using Intake Assignment

Intake Assignment from EMR

The only location intake assignments can be assigned from in the EMR is the patient setup drop-down. This is the least common location intakes are assigned from due to their unaffiliated nature to a scheduled appointment. The main difference between this screen and the other two previous assignment screens is the ability to provide forms to a patient with a specific date in mind and not a scheduled appointment. This is ideal for assigning consent forms and questionnaires to the patient.

See the above screenshot and notice option within the drop-down, titled "Intake Assignment". Once selected the following will be displayed:
