The reporting system will send the report and metadata, including:
| |
Set Up | |
Instead of configuring preferences directly in the system, a template will be provided for completion to set up the preferences. | |
Use | |
When you create a report, Report Assistant uses your preferences to format and generate content. | |
Output | |
A JSON-formatted preference is generated using the highest-priority ID available. This preference is sent to the Report Assistant along with the report and metadata, ensuring the correct logic is applied automatically. | |
Override | |
For special cases, you can use macros or instructions to change settings just for one report. | |
Disable | |
Using Report Preferences, the support team can disable Report Assistant at the reading physician, facility, or facility group level by setting the Report Assistant Version to 0.0 within the Report Preferences for that level. When Report Assistant is disabled, clicking the [AI] button will not trigger Report Assistant or make any modifications to the existing report. |
