I am exploring the procedure order option for openEMR. I’ve created an encounter, selected “Visit Forms”, and then selected “procedure order”. The order form came out but when I click on the line of “procedure 1”, it shows me a new “procedure picker” window and ask me to put in keyword to search for procedure. I tried a lot of things like “CBC” etc but no one procedure comes out.
OpenEMR doesn’t have any predefined procedure orders.Before sending lab orders you need to configure some procedure orders in OpenEMR based on your clinic needs
Go to OpenEMR ->procedures ->configuration -> Add top level (Add your lab orders here)
Hi
The “Procedure 1” search dialog window - will results in all the order codes for the provider mentioned in “Sending To” field. This should be configured in “Procedures->configuration” interface.
