The Patient Manager is a piece of Probe that serves to track the medical aspects of a patient's chart (see screenshot below). Notes, prescriptions, charts and other pieces of information concerning the patient's medical history are stored here.

Please note that patient records stored here are not automatically updated when patient records are created under the Patients list. Therefore, please ensure that, when creating or deleting records in either list, both lists are kept current.

To bring up one of the module's functions, select the patient's name from the list and click on the corresponding button on the right. Each module is described separately in the remainder of the document.

To add a patient to the list, click on the toolbar, then enter the patient's name into the window. If the patient is already in the Patients list, then a link will be created to that patient's file. Otherwise, the patient will have only chart information associated with him/her, not personal information (i.e. address, insurance, etc.) or ledger information. To add personal and financial information about a new, unlisted patient, enter them into the Patients list. (See: Adding a Patient)

To remove a patient's entry, hilite their entry in the list and click in the toolbar. Please note that deleting a patient from the Chart Manager list does not remove their entry in the Patients list. To remove their personal information from the list for good, delete the patient under the Patient Information list as well. (See: Deleting a Patient)
