Looking Up Repeat Patients

Are you escorting a very familiar face to the hospital? Remember, Elite can provide you with a shortcut to important information (e.g., history, allergies, etc.) with the Repeat button.

  • Locate the Patient menu and the Patient Information tab.
  • Type in the patient’s last name (and/or first name, and/or SSN).
  • Click the Find a Repeat Patient button.
  • Insert more information into the form to narrow your search.Note: You probably want to pull information from a report you personally wrote in the past instead of assuming that whichever report on the same individual will contain the same quality of information you would have input. Remember to verify information with the patient (e.g., “Are you still taking [medicine] and am I correct that you’re allergic to [allergen]”).
