Catalog Setup Screen and Tabs

The Catalog Setup Screen is where unit managers or administrators can create, edit and maintain catalog items, digital documents, digital document elements and other components that may be tied to documents and/or requests.  

• Digital Document Elements are the basic building blocks of the digital documents in VetView.  These include reusable questions and potentially default answers, text blocks, short text fill in the blanks, value lists/drop down menus, signature lines, and Report Information blocks that are pulled directly from the patient record. 

• Digital Documents are basic forms within VetView.  These are meant to represent a digital version of the paper forms used in offline EHR systems.  Each Digital Document is made of one or more digital document elements.

• Catalog Items are a bundle of digital documents, additional questions, and charges associated with the form to be filled out.  Other items within the system can be included in the catalog item, such as patient reminders.  

  • Documents are intended to be filled out within the same unit that is performing the episode.

  • Requests are sent out to other units within the hospital to be completed, such as anesthesiology or the diagnostic lab.

• Catalogs are a collection of catalog items that are associated with a specific unit or function in the hospital.  Catalogs allow for a user on the patient episode to browser through the catalog items and choose the correct one for their purpose.

• Catalog Pick Lists are catalogs with the catalog items set up in such a way that are user can browser through and pick multiple items to add all at once.  This is especially useful for imaging / radiology, where a clinician may want to order multiple views at the same time.
