PATIENT MANAGEMENT PROGRAM Phone Number Types This area is linked to the patient information window and allows you to set a number of telephone fields so that you may capture several telephone numbers from each patient. Telephone numbers may include work, home, pager, cellular phone, cottage, and fax. Province/State Codes The Province Codes Form is linked to patient information and allows you to add the names of provinces or states in your surrounding area, where your patients live and work. This helps to speed up the input of information into patient records and provides for uniform phrasing and spelling. Referrals If your office tracks referrals, this form will be very useful to you as it will capture referral information from industry as well as individuals. The Edit Referrals form records the code assigned, the referral name, and contact details. This field in patient information is case and punctuation sensitive. It is important that you set-up the pick list for referrals if you wish to be able to accurately produce the referral activity report. 19 | Customizing PMP for Your Office
