Medication invoicing: Quantity shown when you enter a number and set unit of measurement for a completed treatment
When you complete a medication treatment task and enter a number, SmartFlow uses the number and the unit of measurement from the treatment settings to calculate the medication quantity shown in the Billing report.
- You set up a medication treatment.
- In the treatment settings, you use Show on flowsheet setting to select a unit of measurement (as a result, the patient's flowsheet shows the unit of measurement that you selected).
- You complete a treatment task and enter a number.
- SmartFlow uses the number from step 2 and the unit of measurement from step 1 to calculate the medication quantity shown in the Billing report.
If you manually enter a number for a medication treatment, SmartFlow uses the unit of measurement from the parameter setting Show on flowsheet.
You add a medication to a patient's flowsheet. In the Show on flowsheet setting, you select Total (ml).
When you do the medication treatment, you manually enter 0.5 in the patient's flowsheet.
Because you selected Total (ml) in the Show on flowsheet setting, SmartFlow knows that you used 0.5 ml for the treatment.
SmartFlow makes a record of 0.5 ml in the patient's billing report.
You add a medication to a patient's flowsheet. The Concentration for the medication is 5 mg / ml. In the Show on flowsheet setting, you select Total (mg).
When you do the medication treatment, you manually enter 0.5 in the patient's flowsheet.
Because you selected Total (mg) in the Show on flowsheet setting, SmartFlow knows that you used 0.5 mg for the treatment.
Because the medication Concentration is 5 mg / 1 ml and you used 0.5 mg, SmartFlow makes a record of 0.1 ml in the patient's billing report.
