SANDI - rDVM Patient Euthanasia Notification (by MOC)

See VTH Policy

Small Animal Euthanasia, Care of Body Remains and Fees

Overview

When select euthanasia procedures are charged out on a patient account in SANDI, a notification is automatically sent to the referring veterinarian (RDVM) stating that his or her patient was euthanized. The communication is sent based on the preferred Method of Communication (MOC) setup on the rDVM account.

This notification is sent only when all of the following are true:

1. There is an RDVM associated with the patient’s SANDI Visit
2. The associated RDVM has a valid MOC on their account.
3. The patient must have an open visit when the euthanasia charge is entered. (No notification will be sent if there is no open visit.)
4. The euthanasia or died procedure code being charged is set up to trigger the communication to the rDVM. Examples below:

Communication Log Entry

Once sent, an entry will automatically be written into the patient Communication Log.
