Active Medication CSV Import

Prerequisites

CorEMR requires patients and all possible providers be in the system before importing medications.

Format

The file must be a Comma-Separated Value file (CSV) with the text, number, and order of columns exactly as listed. The columns marked Required must have the specified type of data present or importing will not occur. All other columns may be left blank, but must still be present in the file. If a field is not able to be included and is not required, that field should be left blank.

Patient Matching

CorEMR will attempt to match the Patient ID/Booking Number field with an existing chart in the system. The field CorEMR will match on is selectable when importing.

Provider Matching

CorEMR will attempt to match the Provider DEA field with an existing provider in the system.
