Employee Team Codes
Create and manage groups of employees assigned to teams for use in Referrals > Employees and the Messaging feature.
Overview
Employee Team Codes allow you to build groups of staff (e.g., nurses, aides, or regional teams). Teams can be used to quickly assign employees in the Referral or send group messages in the Messaging feature.
Create an Employee Team
- Go to Office > Codes > Status Codes > Employee Teams.
- Enter a two-digitΒ Number, Code (optional), and Description.
- Click Save. The available employee lists appear on the far right.
- Click the employee name to moveΒ them into Employees on Team# column.
- If added by mistake, select the name in the team list to move them back.
- Click Save once all employees are assigned.
Optional: The Code field is an extra way to divide teams for larger mapped areas. It also displays in the description when searching codes.
Note: If an employee does not appear in the list, verify they have both a Revenue Code and Job Code assigned under Codes > Other Basic Codes > Employees.
Modify an Existing Team
- Select an existing team number to view or edit.
- Add or remove employees from the Available Employees list.
- Click Save when done.
Using Teams in Referral > Employees
Teams make it easier to assign groups of staff to a patient referral:
- In Referrals > Employees, enter a Team numberΒ in Assign Employees by Team.
- The team name appears under Assigned Teams, and members are added to the employee list.
- Remove an employee by clicking the X next to their name, or add individuals under Assign Individual Employees.
The original Primary Team# field remains on the far right and functions the same as before.
Using Teams in Messaging
Employee Teams work with Barnestorm Message, Email, and Text Message:
- In Messaging, click New Message.
- Select TeamsΒ and enter the Team number.
- Enter the message information and Send.Β
