VIP Instructions

VIP requires a separate download path for each Site it receives from.

By Default setting up a Medical Objects contact will import everything as being from Medical Objects. (Similar to Practix) If the site requires the files to show up as the Path/Rad sender (i.e QHPS/SXR) you will have to set up a Message Source Excpetion in the capricorn and divert those specific files to another path. Then create a contact within VIP that picks up from that path.

Note: You MUST tell the site if you are sending PIT or HL7 as VIP is set for type per download path

Default X:\Labs\MO

Pathology X:\Labs\MO\QHPS

Radiology X:\Labs\MO\SXR

To Setup Import in VIP

From top Menu choose Patient, and then search.

perform a search for your company, such as 'medical' to see if a contact currently exists for medical objects.

To create the contact tick the 'New Organisation' box and choose search

Click 'New' button in bottom left hand corner of screen that appears.

Put company name e.g 'Medical Objects' in the name section and choose role e.g 'Laboratory' Put short name e.g 'MO' in the code box.
