Designate the Legal Guardian and Primary Caregiver of minors electronically from PM to the EMR.
Legal Guardianship and Primary Caregiver are crucial to pediatric patient care, transport and chaperon privileges. Legal Guardianship and Primary Caregiver are also NCQA’s Patient Centered Medical Home Section2: Element A, requirements 9 and 10. The PM system currently does not have the fields or method to define that information and transmit it across the interface to the EMR.
