Readmitting a Patient

  • Updated

The Kipu EMR allows you to readmit a patient, automatically linking their past episodes of care to their new treatment episode. This automatically adds the patient's demographics, payment information, contacts, allergies, and special dietary needs to the new chart, reducing the amount of data entry required to readmit a patient. Additionally, you can quickly toggle between charts, making it simple to review treatment history.
