Unfiled Pathology

If there is unfiled pathology in a patient's record and you receive a GP2GP record request, Vision 3 tries to automatically file the pathology:

• If the results cannot be filed automatically and are under a year old, the GP2GP record is not sent. The request displays in Mail Manager - Incoming folder as An acknowledgement has been sent - Notes not yet sent stating 'There are outstanding pathology results that must be filed before the history can be sent'.
• If the results cannot be filed automatically and are over a year old, the GP2GP record is sent without including them.
• If the results file, they transfer as part of the patient record, although the responsibility for actioning unfiled results remains with you as the original practice:

You must file the unfiled pathology and then trigger the sending of the record:

1. From either:
   • Mail Manager , with the GP2GP request highlighted, select ConMgr , or
   • Consultation Manager , select the patient required
2. Select View Mail for Patient and the Current Mail screen displays.
3. Select Unfiled to display unfiled results:

1. Highlight the result you want to file and select View Result. The Individual Message screen displays:

   

2. Results with a green tick are filed, for those items without a green tick, select File All.
3. Once the outstanding pathology records are filed, return to Mail Manager - Incoming Mail and select the Acknowledged - notes not yet sent message.
4. From Please select your response, select Send patient notes and then Send Response:

   

5. Once sent, the message status automatically updates to Sent.
