20
![Page 21: EMR Research Functionality Demo and Best Practices · EMR Research Functionality Demo and Best Practices . Katrina Imson, CCRP . CTSC . December 3, 2015 . 1 . Class Objectives •](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041022/5ed36cdff15ef3476a729c8e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Associating an Encounter (cont.) • Go to “Chart Review” to confirm the presence of a beaker which indicates
that the encounter is associated to a study
21
![Page 22: EMR Research Functionality Demo and Best Practices · EMR Research Functionality Demo and Best Practices . Katrina Imson, CCRP . CTSC . December 3, 2015 . 1 . Class Objectives •](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041022/5ed36cdff15ef3476a729c8e/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Associating an Order to a Research Study • Open the research encounter and add the orders under “Order Entry” • Enter the diagnosis/diagnoses as appropriate • Because the encounter is research-related, enter Z00.6 (what used to be
V70.7)
22
![Page 23: EMR Research Functionality Demo and Best Practices · EMR Research Functionality Demo and Best Practices . Katrina Imson, CCRP . CTSC . December 3, 2015 . 1 . Class Objectives •](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041022/5ed36cdff15ef3476a729c8e/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Associating an Order to a Research Study • Standard practice requires an association of the encounter/order to a
diagnosis (or diagnoses)
23
• When you are ready to associate, click the button and this window will appear
• Associate the appropriate diagnoses to the orders and click “Accept”
![Page 24: EMR Research Functionality Demo and Best Practices · EMR Research Functionality Demo and Best Practices . Katrina Imson, CCRP . CTSC . December 3, 2015 . 1 . Class Objectives •](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041022/5ed36cdff15ef3476a729c8e/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Associating an Order (cont.) • Now you’ll see that the order has these 2 circles linked to show that they’ve
been associated to the diagnoses you chose
• Next, the orders need to be associated to the research study • This needs to be done for ALL orders associated to the research study so that
personnel (e.g., coders) are aware that these orders are research-related and are routed to the appropriate account (insurance vs. study)
• So how do we do this?
24
![Page 25: EMR Research Functionality Demo and Best Practices · EMR Research Functionality Demo and Best Practices . Katrina Imson, CCRP . CTSC . December 3, 2015 . 1 . Class Objectives •](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041022/5ed36cdff15ef3476a729c8e/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Associating an Order (cont.) • First and foremost, ensure that your window is maximized to show
“Research Association” on top right
25
![Page 26: EMR Research Functionality Demo and Best Practices · EMR Research Functionality Demo and Best Practices . Katrina Imson, CCRP . CTSC . December 3, 2015 . 1 . Class Objectives •](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041022/5ed36cdff15ef3476a729c8e/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Associating an Order (cont.) • Place a check mark on the boxes that are related to the study
• Click “Accept” • Now you’ll see that there is a beaker next to the linked circles that shows that the
orders have been linked to the research study
26
![Page 27: EMR Research Functionality Demo and Best Practices · EMR Research Functionality Demo and Best Practices . Katrina Imson, CCRP . CTSC . December 3, 2015 . 1 . Class Objectives •](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041022/5ed36cdff15ef3476a729c8e/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Associating an Order (cont.) • Depending on how your department is set up, you can either sign
orders or you can pend the orders for a nurse, physician, etc. to sign
27

Research Billing Review
• Gives coordinators an opportunity to review charges for accuracy
• Need to ensure that procedures are billed correctly (patient/insurance vs. study)
• Also ensure that procedures are marked as either study-related or non-study-related
• Can run the report through the Research Home Dashboard • IMPORTANT: Once a patient is associated to a study, all
charges for all visits (even those not related to the study) will have to be reviewed and approved by the coordinator/designee 28
![Page 29: EMR Research Functionality Demo and Best Practices · EMR Research Functionality Demo and Best Practices . Katrina Imson, CCRP . CTSC . December 3, 2015 . 1 . Class Objectives •](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041022/5ed36cdff15ef3476a729c8e/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

![Page 38: EMR Research Functionality Demo and Best Practices · EMR Research Functionality Demo and Best Practices . Katrina Imson, CCRP . CTSC . December 3, 2015 . 1 . Class Objectives •](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041022/5ed36cdff15ef3476a729c8e/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Best Practices • Set studies up on the Bridge before you can start anything
on EMR • Always set the study up in EMR and include key personnel
(PI, coordinator, designated billing review person if not coordinator)
• Always associate subjects to research studies, even when they are still in the screening process
• Review charges regularly, otherwise, the charges are not billed (either to the study or insurance)
• Try to run both CRC and Non-CRC reports to make sure all charges are reviewed and approved
• If you are unsure, refer to the Quick Start Guide or call someone who can walk you through it

What I’ve Learned So Far… • It looks complicated, but it’s not too bad • It’s still a work in progress • Always ask if you have questions – everyone is really
helpful
