Default Country for Unregistered Family Members

Configure Default Country

Add an Unregistered Family Member

What’s New

•  The Country field is now automatically populated when adding an unregistered family member.
• The populated value is based on the practice’s configured Default Country.
• The Default Country is sourced from Practice > EHR Settings (10G).
• The enhancement applies to the following workflow:
  
  •  Patient > Open Patient > Family > Add Unregistered Family Member
• The automatically populated Country remains editable.
•  Users can select a different country before saving the family member.
•  If the default value is retained, it is saved as the family member’s Country.

How It Works 

• Configure a Default Country under Practice > EHR Settings (10G).
• Navigate to Patient > Open Patient > Family.
• Select Add Unregistered Family Member.
• The Country field automatically displays the practice’s configured Default Country.
• Keep the populated country or select another country from the dropdown as needed.
• Save the unregistered family member with the selected Country.
