General

Schedule Days to Sync

This setting will configure the number of days to sync appointments in Ocean's Day Sheet view. For most clinic environments, the default value of 1 day is sufficient.

Note: More internet bandwidth is required for longer time intervals for appointment synchronization.

Sync Appointments For Provider(s)

Ocean will automatically source a list of providers from your EMR and display them in the dropdown menu. Ensure that all providers who are using Ocean are selected within the dropdown menu to ensure that they are synchronized in Ocean.

Mark appointments as Arrived in the next(hours)

This field allows you to define the time range after a patient checks in at the kiosk, in which you'd like to mark their appointment(s) as arrived (e.g. if you set this to 2 hours, any appointments that a patient is booked for, within 2 hours of them checking in at the kiosk, will be flagged as arrived).

Clinical Notes

Combine Progress Notes

If this checkbox is enabled and a patient fills out multiple Ocean eForms in one sitting, all resultant notes from those eForms will go into one single task note in the patient's chart in Med Access (vs. each form creating a separate task for each Ocean eForm completed).

Automatically Import Attachments to EMR

This checkbox is enabled by default, and ensures that Website Form submissions, file attachments included in a Patient Authenticated Website Form submission, and eReferral/eConsult records with their respective file attachments will be automatically imported into the EMR in PDF format. It is strongly recommended to keep this setting enabled.

Please note that it is important to understand the impact of disabling automatic attachment imports, particularly for eReferrals. eReferral users should keep the checkbox enabled to ensure that they receive referral attachments.

Note Status

Control whether certain Ocean notes will import into Med Access as Active or Completed tasks. See Ocean Note Tasks for more detailed information.

Clinical Notes

Combine Progress Notes

If this checkbox is checked off and a patient fills out multiple Ocean eForms in one sitting, all resultant notes from those eForms will go into one single encounter note in the patient's chart in Accuro (vs. each form creating a separate encounter for each Ocean eForm completed).

Letter Type

Select the letter type that all Ocean-generated Encounter Notes will enter as in Accuro. Letter types are customizable in Accuro by using the Template Wizard (Tools > Template Wizard > Manage Option in the Type selection list at the top center of the Template Wizard screen).

The letter type is shown under the 'Type' column in the patient's Virtual Chart, and in the 'Type' field at the bottom of the Encounter Note window. If you create new letter types in Accuro, they will appear as a selectable option in the dropdown list in Ocean.

Custom Fields
