Coordinator and Sup Faculty assignment Overview

At registration, doctors are assigned to the patient's visit in SANDI by the customer service representatives using the information they have.   When a service receives a case, the doctors must be updated in SANDI, each case minimally requires a supervising faculty and case coordinator associated with that registration. Ensuring the correct doctors related to the visit are up to date can help communication between client services and your service area and reduce call wait times. Update via the edit button   within the Visit box on the Patient Dashboard.

1. At least one doctor is required and one doctor must be designated as the Coordinator. 
2. It is best practice to ONLY specify one (1) Supervising Faculty member, otherwise be aware that ONLY the LAST Attending Clinician Faculty(ACF) member listed will display as Sup. Faculty in the Visit box on the Patient Dashboard.
3. The Role defaults to the doctor role setup in SANDI. However, it can be changed by the user during registration and via the edit button   within the Visit box on the Patient Dashboard.
4. When Coordinator is checked, the Visit Info box on the Patient Dashboard will list this doctor as the Coordinator.

Example 1:

• Dr. Shuster will be listed as Coordinator because the Coordinator box is checked. 
• Dr Berry will be listed as Sup. Faulty because of his role of Attending Clinician Faculty.

Example 2: 

• Dr. Shuster will be listed as Coordinator because the Coordinator box is checked. 
• Dr. Garrett will be listed as Sup. Faulty in the Visit box on the Patient Dashboard because she is the last Attending Clinician Faculty in the list.
