Casefiles

  • Updated

Casefiles allow you to export a patient’s entire medical record as a PDF. This is helpful for any other situation where a patient's medical record needs to be exported and provided. 

Required Permissions
Casefiles can only be created by Super Admins or Records Admins.

Create a Casefile

Let’s review how to create a Casefile. 

  1. Open the patient chart and click on the Casefile icon.blobid1.png
  2. Green items are selected by default. Click on the other items to include them in the Casefile PDF.blobid2.png
    • Insurance Forms: Any Insurance verification forms or any insurance forms added to the patient facesheet (Information tab).
    • Facesheet Notes: Any Notes added to the patient information tab.
    • Protected Tabs: Any tabs that you have made protected under Settings > Patients > Patient Processes will not automatically be pulled into the casefile unless you select Protected Tabs. Additionally 
    • PHI Forms: Forms in the Disclosure Log tab.
    • Include Pending Forms: Any forms that have been added to the patient chart but haven’t been completed. 
    • Include Golden Thread List: Select this option to include the Golden Thread List View tab in the Casefile along with the individual treatment plans.
    • Page Numbers: Ensure the Casefile has page numbers (e.g. 1 of 27 pages).
    • Sort Chronologically: Override the sort order set in the Instance Settings to order everything based on date.
    • Specify a Date Range: Only include a specific date range in the package. 
  3. When ready, click Submit.

  4. The Casefile will generate. Depending on the size of the case, this can take several minutes to several hours. Once the casefile is complete, you’ll receive a Download badge in the EMR header.

Customize PDF Headers

You can customize the patient information that is displayed in the header of each page of the patient's Casefile. Click here for instructions. 

Casefile Settings

Casefiles are enabled in every Kipu Instance by default. In your Instance Settings, you can determine how to sort the order of the casefile documentation. 

To update your Casefile Sort Order:

  1. Click on your initials and select Settings.
  2. Open the Instance tab.blobid6.png
  3. Locate Casefile documents: default sort order. Tip: Use Ctrl + F (Windows) or Cmd + F (Cac) to quickly search the page.blobid7.png
  4. Choose your preferred sort order from the drop-down.blobid8.png
    • Default: This is the order that forms appear in the chart (tab order e.g., Information, Pre-Admission, etc.)
    • Name: Alphabetically
    • Date: Chronologically
    • Status: Shows all open forms, then in progress, then in review, then complete.
  5. Click Update to save your changes.

Casefile User Permission Workaround

If you want someone who isn’t a Super Admin or Records Admin to be able to download a complete Casefile, we recommend creating a PDF Package that includes everything. 

The easiest way to do this is create a new PDF Package, following these instructions. Then for the Sections, Consents, and Evaluations section, please click the Select All boxes.
