| • | Rank: Order of the diagnosis. This can be changed in the detail of the diagnosis |
| • | DM: This column will display an icon on the line of any diagnosis code that is found in the filters of formulas on that patient's DM/HM screen. If more than one formula corresponds to the Dx, the highest level color icon will appear (red being the highest and blue being the lowest). The DM icon is a link directly to the patient's DM/HM screen. In the Dx detail screen, the same DM icon appears and is also a link to the patient's DM/HM screen. |
| • |  : Formula corresponding to the Dx is overdue |
| • |  : Formula corresponding to the Dx is approaching its due date |

| • | Show: The active view will be in red. The selection will be saved by user for that session. |
| • | All: Shows all diagnoses in the patient's Dx History. |
| • | Diagnosis Once: Shows only one instance of each diagnosis in the patient's Dx History. |

| • | Error: Mark a diagnosis codes as done in error |
| • | : View the log for each specific diagnosis code. |
|
| • | Rank: Order of the particular diagnosis code in the Dx History list. |
| • | Default: The Default flag does not cause the diagnosis to default into the E-Superbill. It does however, cause those diagnoses to appear on the patient information and in charge entry if set to Yes, unless there is a diagnosis selected for today's date. |
| • | Primary: This diagnosis is a primary diagnosis for the patient. This defaults in from the Diagnosis Master File and can be changed if needed. |
| • | Doctor: Doctor associated with this diagnosis. Note: The Doctor defaults in as follows: |
| 1. | Doctor logged in (if a provider) |
| 3. | Doctor from 1st valid encounter record |
| 4. | Doctor from patient information |
| • | Date: Today's date defaults in. However, this can be changed to reflect the Date of Service |
| • | Description: Name of the diagnosis defaults in. This can be customized in the Diagnosis Master File so the output is specific to the practice |
| • | WCMV: Most users do not need to deploy this field. If a provider sees a patient in the same day for a regular visit and a Workers Compensation/Motor Vehicle visit, for the WC/MV visit select the Insurance carrier when creating the Progress Note and the Progress Note will automatically populate this Insurance into all the related items. Then MEDENT automatically knows which diagnoses go with which of the two different Progress Notes that were created on the same day. This carries through MEDENT to the E-Superbill, Charge Entry and scheduling the patient's next appointment. |
| • | Dr Note: Enter Doctor's Note |
| • | DM: This icon will display if the diagnosis code is found in the filters of formulas on that patient's DM/HM screen. If more than one formula corresponds to the Dx, the highest level color icon will appear (red being the highest and blue being the lowest). The DM icon is a link directly to the patient's DM/HM screen. |
