You can use different types of items to configure assessment pages.
You can configure items required for an assessment page using the assessment item section of the Manage Common Assessments panel on the Specialty Common Assessment Config template. When you enter an assessment page in the *Common assessment page name field, the items configured for that page appear in the assessment item section. You can add, update, or delete items from the selected page as needed.
If you select an item number, the number is filled in the Item # field. You need to select the item type to be added, enter the details of the item, and add the item to the assessment page. The types of items are as follows:
- Header/Group. Headers and header groups appear in bold on the assessment pages. If the header text is prefixed with a plus sign, it indicates that the item is a header group and there are multiple codes in that group. The groups created using the Specialty Diagnosis Group Config template are provided as options for adding header groups. You can add other diagnosis groups and codes under the headers or header groups.
- Subgroup. The sub-groups are diagnosis groups added under a header and display a plus sign before their name to indicate there are multiple codes in that sub-group. The groups created using the Specialty Diagnosis Group Config template are provided as options for adding sub-groups.
- Description and code. The diagnosis code appears in black, and the description appears as a link for adding the diagnosis to a patient's history.
- Spacer. The spacers appear as a repeated minus symbol (--------------) to divide different diagnosis groups and headers on an assessment page.
