Merge Patients
When a patient is made by mistake or is duplicated, we need to combine both these patient profiles. For that, we created the merge patients features. Open the Patients tab, and click the desired patient. On the basic information page, click the three dot menu icon. Choose the “Merge patient” option, and a pop-up box appears. Notice the writing in the box, it says “All treatments, prescriptions, vitals, appointments, invoices, claims and reports will be moved to 1 patient.”. The biggest warning is “Patient basic details and history won’t be merged. Make sure to manually save the data you want to retain”. Select the other patient you want to merge with from the drop down menu. Two options appear making you choose which patient number you want to retain and which patient file will be deleted. Select the desired option and click confirm. Refresh the page and the patient file is now deleted.
