Connections

• Patient roster. Map existing patient numbers and assigned clinicians when bringing an established register into the app.
• Payment collection. If a separate payment service collects money, define how its received amount and reference are checked before a patient receipt is confirmed.
• Clinical source documents. Agree how signed consent documents and clinician verification evidence are supplied to the people who maintain those records.

The clinic chooses the source for each imported fact and the person who checks it. Match incoming records to an existing patient or encounter before creating a new entry. Keep a rejected or ambiguous match out of the confirmed working record until an owner resolves it. A local status change should follow the evidence received from the relevant source.
