The timing for importing data from Caredove into your Client Management System (CMS) depends on your business process. Caredove can be configured to send data to your CMS on the following referral event triggers:
Event trigger | Description |
Received (includes routed requests) | A new referral is received in Caredove (in the INBOX). |
Edited | An existing referral is updated. |
Edited Status - Ready | An existing referral sub-status is set to "Ready". |
Edited Status - Received | An existing referral sub-status is set to "Received". |
Closed | An existing referral is closed. |
Booked | A new appointment is added to an existing referral. |
Rescheduled/Unbooked | An existing appointment associated with a referral is either rescheduled or unbooked. |
Archived | An existing referral is archived. |
Message from Provider | A communication is sent by the referral's RECEIVING organization to the sender. |
Message from Requester | A communication is sent by the referral's SENDING organization to the provider. |
The most common process to import referrals is after the referral handling and appointment have been completed in Caredove. This involves a one-time handoff of data at the end of the process, and it is the cleanest way to configure the integration.
Another possible process is to import referrals at the start of referral handling in Caredove, when the referral is received or marked as accepted (so that rejected referrals are not imported). With this method you will get the client into your CMS earlier, and continue to receive Caredove updates until the referral has been accepted in your CMS.
Your Caredove representative will help you define what import process is right for you.
