Procedure documentationClassifying Services

 

You use the classification of unscheduled services for day-based scheduling to determine quotas.

You can define one quota for each service class. The system uses your classification when scheduling an appointment in day-based scheduling to assign services to the correct service class and determine the available quota.

The classification of unscheduled services is optional. If you do not classify unscheduled services, they will be assigned to the "Further Services" column of the day-based planning.

Procedure

  1. In the in-house catalog, you create one service for each service class (e.g. major surgeries).

  2. Define a new grouping type for services (e.g. CfP = Classification for Preregistrations) in the Implementation Guide under Start of the navigation path Industry-Specific Component Clinical System Next navigation step Service Management Next navigation step Services Next navigation step Maintain Service Grouping Types End of the navigation path.

  3. Enter this new grouping type in the institution-specific parameter N1LKPZUOin the Implementation Guide under Start of the navigation path Industry-Specific Component Clinical System Next navigation step Global Settings Next navigation step System Parameters Next navigation step Overall Parameter Maintenance End of the navigation path.

  4. Assign the services, for which patients can be preregistered, to the service classes with the new assignment type in the Implementation Guide under Start of the navigation path Industry-Specific Component Clinical System Next navigation step Service Management Next navigation step Services Next navigation step Maintain Service Grouping Types End of the navigation path.

Example

You can divide services into the following service classes:

  • 'Major'

  • 'Medium' and

  • 'Minor' surgeries.

In this case, you can specify the services more precisely using text.

Another classification possibility would be to divide the treatments or surgeries according to the part of the body concerned, for example:

  • Cardiac operations

  • Hip operations

  • etc.
