Learning Objectives Identify the characteristics of parameters and how they are used in Electronic Health Record (EHR) Setup Examine the menu options used to review and edit various parameters Identify how selected parameters relate to the configuration of the EHR Graphical User Interface (GUI) As a team, identify the values of selected parameters and perform the initial EHR Parameter Setup using the parameters

Definition System levels set the parameter for all users Program checks for user level If set, takes value and quits If not set, goes to next highest setting Quits when it finds a value, up to package

Setting Parameters Most are set using EHR Menu Options Site managers can access all Parameters using the General Parameter Tools option

Parameter Menus The first four are for looking at the values LVList Values for a Selected Parameter LEList Values for a Selected Entity LPList Values for a Selected Package LTList Values for a Selected Template The next list is for setting the parameter values EPEdit Parameter Values ETEdit Parameter Values with Template EKEdit Parameter Definition Keyword
