The 'EMR Codified Allergy Required' company setting is used to determine if non-codified allergies can or can not be added to a patient's chart within the Allergies chart tab.
Default Value: Off
Options:
- Off- Users can add non-codified allergies to the allergies chart tab
- On - Users can not add non-codified allergies to the allergies chart tab.
Special Considerations:
In the event that your practice allows patients to enter allergies via the Intelligent Intake, it is important to be aware that patient's may still add non-codified allergies on the intake. If the company setting is On, an error will be produced when a user attempts to merge these allergies into the chart. Users will need to manually add the correct allergies as desired to the Allergies chart tab: Add a new Allergy
