Flagging Suitable Chronic Medication Service (CMS) Patients
As CMS results in a lessening of clinical and administrative workload, we suggest you flag patients who are potentially suitable for CMS. This can act as a prompt for you during a consultation to review the patient for CMS participation. There are two ways of flagging patients as potentially suitable for CMS:
- Using Populate CMSSuitability .
- Marking individual patients as suitable for CMS.
Other points to note:
- Suitable patients can be flagged before CMS is enabled on your system.
- You must be part of the Clinical Managers security group to flag a patient as suitable for CMS.
- You can generate a report which lists all the patients suitable forCMS, see Chronic Medication Service (CMS) Patient Suitability for details.
See Group Populating Patients Suitable or Unsuitable for CMS (Serial Prescribing), Flagging Individual Patients as Suitable for CMS (Serial Prescribing), Changing Patient Suitability in Patient Details, Consultation Manager, Changing Patient Suitability from the Therapy tab, Consultation Manager and Changing Patient Suitability from Therapy - Add for details.
