Introduction to Results
In Arya you can upload patient results manually, receive them through eFax or have them delivered directly via our integration with Excelleris.
There are two levels of results:
1. The Global level, to which all new results for all patients are delivered:
2. The Patient level, which shows only the results that have been tagged to a particular patient and is found within the patient's chart:
On both the global and patient level Results page, you will see a list of results ordered from most recent to least recent. You can search this list by keyword, and filter results by practitioner to see which results have been assigned to them.
Uploading and Assigning Results
Excelleris Results (BC clinics)
All new Excelleris results come into the global Results inbox (accessible by clicking Results on the top navigation bar). When a new Excelleris result comes in, Arya checks the patient’s name, DOB, and PHN, and if the patient already exists in the system, it will tag the result to that patient and file it directly in the patient’s chart. If the patient doesn’t exist in Arya yet, the system will automatically create a new patient profile.
Uploading Results
You can upload a result by clicking the upload button in the Results list. If uploaded into a patient’s chart, the result will automatically be associated with that patient. If uploading to global Results, you will need to manually assign a patient.
To add a patient to a result, click the Info icon to open the right-side panel. From there you can search for an existing patient or add a new patient.
You can also give your result a title and assign it to a clinical user.
Filing Results from eFax
If your clinic receives results through eFax, they can be filed under the Results section. Click the Assign button to open the right-side panel and assign a patient, a clinical user, and set the type as 'Result'.
You can learn more about assigning documents from eFax here.
Message Function
When working with results, you have an option to send a message to the patient. Click Message either in Global or patient-level Results to reveal additional fields.
Here, you can write the message for your patient. In the Fee Code field, you can indicate one or several fee codes. If a fee code is added, once you send the message, the system will automatically create a bill with the indicated fee code(s) and assign it to the patient.
You can also click the star icon to mark this message as favourite. The system will remember the message you typed in or both the message and corresponding fee codes. This will allow you to quickly send similar messages and/or create bills for future patients.
The patient will receive an email to the email address in their chart with your Message:
Results List, Table, and Vitals
One difference between the global and patient-level Results pages is that on the patient-level there are the Table and Vitals tabs in addition to a list of documents.
The Table view allows you to view a patient’s historic test results side-by-side and see trends (applies to Excelleris results).
The Vitals tab lets you monitor standard patient vitals, such as height and weight, or create your own metrics that you want to monitor.
