Selecting Contacts from the action bar will display the Visit Contact List and will show all the contacts for the patient along with the relationship type. From this screen, existing contacts may be edited and new contacts may be added.
A list of available contact types, with no associated contact name, will be listed at the top of the screen. The available contact types are: Guarantor, Father, Mother, Spouse, Emergency Contact, Authorized Rep and Caregiver. Once a contact name is associated with an available contact type, it will copy back to the profile or visit, depending on if it is being added from the Profile Contact List or the Visit Contact List. As contact names are associated with available contact types, they will be removed from the Available listing at the top of the screen.
Contacts with an asterisk "*" at the beginning of their name denotes that the contact is the Primary Emergency Contact for the patient.
Only one contact name may be added for contact types Guarantor, Father, Mother, Spouse, Authorized Rep and Caregiver. Multiple contact names may be added for Emergency Contacts.
