Health Management Plan Component - a valuable tool that allows the user to quickly review and manage problems, current medications, reminders, and recent results for the selected patient. Displays the contents of the patient’s HMP in the data section of the component. i. displays an overview of what is being treated for a patient 1. These items are grouped by Problem by default, but can be by specialty, priority, or problem type. 2. Problem is typically the default view 3. Enables you to view and modify HMP items for the patient ii. In previous versions of Health Management component, ALL problems were displayed in Enterprise EHR 1. Including problems that were not actively being managed 1. Caused overcrowding of the Health Management view 2. Made the view less effective and more difficult to use 3. Enhancements have been made to remove problems that are not being actively managed 4. Can now use filters to display only the items you want to see 5. User can personalize the HMP using the personalize page from the clinical desktop i. Can determine which types of information display ii. Can hide/collapse different problem types (health maintenance, acute, chronic) information 2. Problems are now actionable from the Health Management view in the same way as the problems component 1. Right click problem and click “Resolve (but not suppress)” to include resolved problems in HMP 2. Right click problem and click “Suppress” to suppress from HMP 3. Medications previously classified as Unassigned medications i. now display as Other medications ii. because some of these could be assigned to problem that are no longer active 4. Previously, unsolicited orders or unassigned orders viewed only in the Orders component i. now these orders are in the Health Management view 5. Can now link other meds or other orders to one or more active problems directly from the HMP. 6. You can add a new problem and link it to the order/medication as well 7. Can create reminder by right clicking on items in the ACI and selecting “Reminder” 3. Double click in ‘most recent’ to view more information about an item


HMP Bulk Load, also known as HMP enrollment, is a new feature in v11

Bulk loads can be created for immunizations, medication, and order reminders with specific frequencies and end dates. These are created using age and gender as well as patients who have a specific diagnosis/ICD9 Code. The diagnosis/problem does not have to be active, it can be resolved and/or a family history. If an order reminder exists on a patient the HMP Bulk load will not remove or duplicate the order. However, the HMP enrollment may increase the frequency of the order reminder.
