This article is part of the systems administration guide. You will require administration access to view the pages mentioned in this article.

  • Example Business Requirements around Recalls (your organisation's may differ):
  • The user needs to be able to record that a recall is required on a certain date.
  • The user needs to be able to run a report giving all recalls due within a time period.
  • The user needs to be able to record that they have contacted, or attempted to contact the patient.
  • The user needs to record the outcome of the contact.
  • The user needs to be able to close off the recall when:
    • The patient has been contacted and an appointment has been booked
    • The patient has been contacted and the patient has refused a further appointment
    • All reasonable measures have been taken to contact the patient but they have been unsuccessful


Workflow in CareRight to achieve the requirements above:


A: Create a new recall for a patient:

  1. Add the Recalls assessment to a patient - Assessment > New > Recalls > Perform.
  2. The assessment needs to be Saved but not approved - effectively kept "open."
  3. Only once all action has been completed should the assessment be Approved.


B: Check for all Recalls for a time period, contact patients and record outcomes:

  1. Run the "Recalls - Active" report for a time period
    1. Use this report to generate a list of patients requiring a recall
    2. To Run: Click Reports > "Recall Report - Active" LOAD
    3. You must enter dates into the filters below or you will get a error:
    4. Recall Date is on or after = dd/mm/yyyy e.g. 01/12/2017
    5. Recall Date is on or before = dd/mm/yyyy e.g. 14/12/2017
    6. Unapproved and Unarchived assessments appear in the report -these are considered active
    7. Print the Report or work from the PDF (different export formats are available - contact your system administrator to discuss)
  2. Contact the patient(s)
  3. For each patient on the list, open CareRight in a new tab and search for the patient by MRN 
  4. Click Show and in their Patient record Click Assessments > Recalls assessment - Continue
  5. Add the call details - when Call 1 details are filled in, Call 2 details will appear, and then Call 3 details
  6. If you have called and left a message, you can optionally add an Notice called Recall to the patient record with details for other users to see
  7. If further action is required - Save and continue to keep the recall open
  8. If no further action require and the recall can be closed:
    1. Select a Status from the pick list
    2. Fill in any additional fields
    3. Click Approve
  9. Repeat 1-7 until you mark the recall as closed or successful
