Lesson 7 - Configure the HPI Tab in NoteWriter

Question 1

List the records involved in getting an HPI form into the HPI tab of NoteWriter.

Answer 1

(1) SmartBlock SmartLink (.sfhpi) brings the HPI tab into NoteWriter,
(2) SmartForm (HPI type),
(3) Reason for Visit HRV,
(4) SmartData element ‐ HRV:HLX mapped via External Concept Mappings
(5) Reason for Visit Preference List may need to be consulted for HRVs,
(6) Profile ‐ Can be at any level of
the hierarchy

Question 2

True or False: You can use any SmartData element in the “HPI Concepts” column of the profile
record to configure your HPI tab.

Answer 2

False. Only use elements that are (a) Boolean and (b) mapped to a reason for visit (via External
Concept Mappings)

Question 3

Scenario: You need different fever HPI forms for children than for adults. You’ve created two forms
and restricted one to ages 0‐13, and left the other unrestricted.

Which form will you list first in the profile alongside the fever SmartData element? Why?

Answer 3

List the pediatric version first. This is because when the HPI Concepts table is consulted, the first form
that matches a patient (per complaint) will be pulled in. So, if you put the unrestricted fever form
first, all patients would get that form.

Question 4

True or False: HPI configuration can only occur at the department level of the profile hierarchy.

Answer 4

False. You can configure this list of elements and associated forms in a profile record at any level of
the hierarchy. Don’t forget, however, that more specific levels override the more general ones.
