I had been considering to create, inside my org structure,
Cardiology Dept, VGH (Org)
Echocardiography Division, VGH (Org unit)
ECG Division, VGH (Org unit)
Electrophysiology Division, VGH (Org unit)
Interventional Cardiology, VGH (Org unit)
and also
Radiology Department, VGH (Org)
Abdominal Radiography
Chest Radiography
Interventional Radiology
Musculoskeletal Radiography
Nuclear Medicine
but I sit confronted with a duality that -- even though the above organizations
or org units generate reports, which can be imported into the patient's GNUmed
document archive -- these same orgs provide measurements within their reports,
for example
abdominal aortic aneurism
- the dimensions thereof
aortic valve stenosis
- the valve area
- the pressure gradient
coronary artery disease
- coronary artery calcium score
therefore is it necessary to categorize these subunits as 'Laboratories' in
order to be able to create 'test types' that derive from these org units?
Also, since there are about 6 different hospitals in my region which provide
echocardiograms, do I need to create a clonal 'test type' for each of them,
later to be aggregated under a 'meta type' or might it suffice to create a
'fake' org like
Echocardiography Labs
and then create each among the various hospital's echocardiography units as
'org units' of the 'fake org' ?
This BTW reminds me of an IMO missing (but not yet agreed to) functionality in
the Org Management widget, which is to be able to filter the display of Orgs by
category of org.
