How To Complete Health Checks Invites And Recalls

The instructions below cover how to complete a patient call in Skyline.

Logging Into Skyline

NOTE: You must log into the Skyline Desktop Connector for the results to be saved within Emis Web

  • Log into the Skyline Desktop Connector

  • If the Desktop connector is hidden

    • Click on the ^ (hidden icons) in the bottom right system tray

    • Right click the Skyline icon

    • Click login and log into Skyline (if login is greyed out you’re already logged in)

    • Click on show cues

    • Launch the web interface via the open browser application option in the Desktop Connector

Generating A Health Checks Invites Recall List

NOTE, Recalls should NOT be downloaded in the Health Check Activity This Year cohort as this includes all patients 40-74, eligible and ineligible.

NOTE, before completing the download below, ensure that the list of patients is correct.

Download will add the code to ALL patients in the list even if you only highlight one.

  • Once you have your list of patients

    • Click on the Action menu

    • Select Download

This will produce a box showing the fields that can be downloaded into an excel document

  • Save As - you can change the default file name (the file will be an Excel file)

  • The boxes show the data fields that can be downloaded for each patient

  • Select All and Select None buttons can be used to speed up the selection

    • You can click on Select All or Select None to clear all boxes and just chose those you want exporting

    • Tick all the required boxes you want downloading (e.g. NHS No, DOB)

 

  • Clicking on download will create the excel file and open a windows dialogue box

    • Browse to the folder where you want the document file to be saved

      • Click on save

Adding An Invite Code Into The Patients Clinical Record

Once the patient invites have been generated, you’ll want to add a code into the patients clinical record.

  • With the cohort still filtered select "Add code To Patients"

    • A box will open with codes that can be added to the patient records

    • Select the required code and click on the Add Code button

  • The code will be added to all patients listed in the cohort filter

    • Note, if there’s an error adding the codes into Emis Web, the codes will be saved in Pending Data ready for posting once the issue has been resolved. Please contact support@ishealth.co.uk and advise on the error generated

       

       

  • The cohort will be updated with the invite codes the next time Skyline receives data from the clinical system; this is usually within 24 to 48 hours.
