HTS System Structure
Information in the Hi-Tech Systems flows from one process to another eliminating duplicate data entry. For example:
1. You will first build the resid ent’s face sheet information in Edit Medical Record.
2. You will then enter Physician Orders, including the diet order and med orders.
3. When you enter an MDS or an MDS-RCA, these programs pull in existing face sheet information from Edit Medical Record.
4. For Residential care, the MDS-RCA will pull in medications from Physician Orders into;
Service Plan Part 1 will pull in the diet order from Physician Orders.
The System Flow Charts on the next page show how Library Codes and Face Sheet information is shared among other parts of the Hi-Tech Clinical Records System.
Libraries
HTS provides several libraries that you can edit to fit your facilit y’s needs. Select frequently used text from libraries rather than re-enter this information.
This will make your use of HTS much more efficient. Libraries include:
1. Physician Library (Name and address)
2. Med / Treatment Frequency
3. Routine / Diet / Standard Order
4. Allergy
5. Insurance
6. Hospital
7. Mortuary
8. City / Town
9. County
10. Problems / Goal / Approaches
(for care plans)
11. Resident Notes
12. Resident Inoculations
13. Activities
14. Events
15. Flow Sheet
16. CAA Resources

Face Sheet Screens
Guidelines for entering face sheet information.
Enter dates, phone numbers, and social security numbers without spaces, slashes or dashes. The program will format the entry.
Do not use the letter O for the number zero, or the number zero for the letter O.
Libraries: You can click the binoculars to select a response from one of the system libraries.
HTS provides some of these libraries, such as the ICD9 Diagnosis library.
You must build other libraries of information that is specific to your facility, such as the
Physician library.
You can add some new library items from the Edit Medical Record program. For example, on the Physicians / Diagnosis screen, at Primary Physician enter a Physician code not yet on file. The program will ask, Do you wish to add this Doctor?. Click Yes. The program will allow you to create a new physician’s record.
Create codes and access existing code records through Libraries > Face Sheet and the edit program for that type of code. (Follow state and federal regulations when creating
codes.)
To print any library, choose the print icon at the bottom right corner of the screen.
Resident Inquiry

Edit Medical Record
NR03
Edit Medical Record accesses “traditional” face sheet information and parts of a resident’s clinical record that can be maintained outside of the Edit Medical Record program.
After you select a resident, you can edit several parts of a resident’s clinical record from the button panel on the right side of the screen.
The top five buttons access parts of the “traditional” Face Sheet .
You might also have access to th e resident’s financial information when you click the Balances button at the bottom of the button panel.
Other buttons access information that you can also maintain outside of Edit Medical Record by selecting an edit option on a menu, for example, Documentation > Vitals.
If you select the button from the Edit Medical Record, when you complete processing in that record, the program will return you to the resident’s Demographics screen.
Your System Administrator can limit which users can access certain information. Call HTS for assistance.

Design a New Report or Edit an Existing Report Design
You must complete two screens when designing a report. Screen 1 (below) allows you to select which residents will be included on the report, and in what order:
Select the Sort Order that you want. You will usually sort in alphabetic order by Last Name of in numeric order by resident ID. Choose the other options depending on the type of information you are printing. Please note that selecting Birth Date sorts by the year born, so oldest residents are listed first.
If this is a list that will include protected health information (PHI), and it will be disclosed to persons outside the facility for reasons other than treatment, payment, or other health care operations (TPO) click
Log Non-Care Purpose/Use and complete the
HIPAA Disclosure Information.
This record will be added to the HIPAA

Dates in the face sheet because not yet entered into the census:
If you respond No, you can list Active and/or Discharged residents, and enter a Census Date to list thos in the facility on that date.
: This will select only those residents with birthdays in a specific month. Enter the birthday month (i.e. 1 for January,
12 for December)
The next part of the screen allows you to be more specific about which residents should be included on the report.
If you do not want to exclude any residents, leave the existing selections.
If you do want to be more selective, click the opposite radio box
and enter a selection range at From and Thru.
Access to these items might depend on previous selections. For example, if you have selected
Active residents only, it makes no sense to ask for a discharge date range, because Active residents should have no discharge date in their face sheet.
