Enabling Patient Discharge Statuses

You can now enable providers to record a patient discharge status. This feature is intended more for large ophthalmic centers, and statuses include such options as home, left against advice, and other healthcare facility. Here's how to enable the discharge status:

1. Log in to the Encompass web application as an administrator.
2. Locate the Encounter Disposition (Patient Discharge Status) card and expand it if needed.
3. Select the Enable Encounter Disposition check box.
4. Click Save.

   The Changes Saved Successfully banner appears.
