Features
Example
You order a treatment for a patient. You can either order this treatment, or preregister it as a preliminary step. You can also enter an appointment template for this treatment or plan an appointment if, as the initiator, you can plan for the performing organizational unit. At the same time as the treatment you can, for example, also preregister the patient for an inpatient admission.
Within the clinical order you can enter treatment contexts, procedures, services, and so on. If you preregister the order item, you can also place the patient on a waiting list (for example, for hip surgery).
