Each person who will be sending Ocean eReferrals will need to link their EMR and Ocean user accounts.
This is especially important for auditing and tracking purposes.
Each Ocean eReferral sender must link their EMR user account to their Ocean user account by following the steps below.
This will allow individual users to send eReferrals to enable alerts and track activity.
-
Initiate your eReferral.
- Select "Find Health Service" on the Ocean custom form or "Refer" on the Ocean toolbar.
- Select the CDS link to the Ocean Portal or the direct "Refer/Find Health Service" CDS link.
- Select "Find Health Service" on the Ocean eForm or "Refer" on the Ocean toolbar.
-
Log in to Ocean to link your EMR and Ocean accounts.
- Initiating a referral will open the Ocean Healthmap in an internet browser.
- Note: If your default internet browser is Internet Explorer, the Ocean Health Map requires at least Internet Explorer 11 to run properly.
- At the top of the Ocean health map, you will see a banner that says: "Hello [your EMR username]. Click here to link to your Ocean account.".
- Click this banner (or the "Sign In" button" above it) to sign in to Ocean with your Ocean username and password.
- Your EMR username will now be linked to your Ocean user account (an accompanying unlimited Ocean online user license, if applicable).
-
Confirm that your EMR and Ocean accounts have been successfully linked.
- Log in to the Ocean Portal and navigate to the View My Account page.
- Verify that your the "EMR Username" field is populated with the exact same name as your EMR username.
