There are several ways to look up a patient within TripTix. The advantage to looking up a patient is that, by doing so, certain fields automatically populate. With less information to input, the medic saves valuable time. Furthermore, with the automatic population of specific patient demographic information fields, the chance for errors is decreased.
You can look up a patient in several ways: by full name and date of birth, by social security number, and by driver license number. No matter which method you use to look up a patient, the Address, DOB, SSN, and Phone fields may automatically populate. For repeat patients, the Gender, Ethnicity, History, Medications, Allergies, and Insurance fields are among those that may also be automatically completed based on previous run records.
