Patients > Update Patient Info Extended
The update patient info extended advanced button will allow the LIS user to update the patient's information to multiple orders, requisitions and standing orders at the same time for specific period of time, this feature will save time since the user will not have to update one record at a time.
Example:
If the patient has multiple orders and the address is incorrect, this feature will update the address for the selected Orders, Requisitions & Standing Orders on a specific Date Range simultaneously.
If the patient address is the only information needing to be updated, uncheck the Use Actual Patient Info box.
