Medical Alerts
There are three types of medical alerts in EXACT that can be set to draw a user's attention.
...
 | A patient's medical condition that the dentist or hygienist needs to be aware of. |
 | A patient that has some potentially infectious disease or condition. |
 | The current patient needs their medical record updated. |
Medical Condition Alert
 | The ‘red cross’ will be displayed if the Med Alert checkbox within the ‘Medical’ tab has been ticked. Holding your mouse over the icon will display a Tool Tip with the patient’s Medical information. |
...
If both the medical condition alert and infectious alert are set on the patient's record, and the user's settings are configured to flash alerts, the alert will flash alternately in yellow and red.
Infectious Condition Alert
 | The ‘yellow cross’ is displayed if the Infectious Alert has been ticked in the ‘Medical’ tab. As with the ‘red cross’, hovering the mouse pointer over the icon will display information regarding the Infectious Alert. |
...
If both the Medical Alert and infectious alert are set on the patient's record, and the user's settings are configured to flash alerts, the alert will flash alternately in yellow and red.
