7. How to install eConsult outcome reports

Practices must ensure to check that their total eConsults matches their eConsult report for the period they run the report.

For example: Our monthly eConsult report for January might have 30 eConsults for the month, and the clinical system report might have 10. This would highlight that some of the eConsults have not been coded.

8. Still not working?

Any issues experienced with installing the templates are commonly caused by incorrect installation.

If you are experiencing difficulties with your templates please uninstall and re-install following the above guide and watching the training video at the top of this page.

If you continue to experience difficulties we recommend you build your own templates using our video guide.

If you continue to experience difficulties after building your own templates please refer to your EMIS guide or contact EMIS support.
