VIP.net Configuration



  1. Open VIP.net, and click on ‘Setup’, ‘Practice preferences’ and select ‘General Preferences’.
  2. Select the ‘Communications’ tab. Under ‘Batching’, Select ‘Medical-Objects’, and Click the ‘Details’ button.
  3. Here you can set the Incoming and Outgoing directory – use UNC Paths for both, for the paths we set up earlier. For example

    \\MO\Results\Incoming
    \\MO\Results\Outgoing


Receiving Lab Results


If the site receives results from multiple Radiology and Pathology providers, VIP needs to have those Radiology and Pathology organisations created.

Some providers may already be entered. Search for them before adding them.

 

  1. Press F2 to open the following window.
  2. Type the name of the organisation, select ‘Organisation’ from the right hand panel and click Search.
  3. If the organisation doesn’t exist, tick ‘new organisation’ to create it.
  4. On the screen that appears, Go to the Investigations Provider Details tab, and click ‘File Transfer’.

    Set the receiving directory to the file path created earlier unless specified otherwise. Use UNC Paths.

    \\MO\Results\VIP\Path Rad

    The Outgoing path is for acknowledgments. Set this path to:

    \\MO\Results\VIP\Outgoing

    And check the box that says "Acknowledge Incoming Messages".

    The Lab identifier is used to differentiate results from different companies. If the site receives from more than one Pathology/Radiology Organisation, you may need to set this option. This should be unique to each lab, located in the first line of the result.

  5. Make sure ‘Automatically match orders to results’, and HL7 are ticked.


Viewing Reports


To View reports, Press F4, and look to the bar on the right side of the VIP interface. Under Communication Type, Tick ‘Incoming’, ‘Correspondence’ and ‘Referral’.

 

Pathology/Radiology reports will be allocated to patient files automatically.

Non-Pathology/Radiology reports can be manually imported.

 

To manually import results go to File, Communications, and select Services. Select Medical-Objects, and select Proceed.

VIP.net should auto import results every 10 minutes.
