Image Types and CGM eDOCS
The image types you create in Maintain Image Types on the System, Image Management menu correspond with CGM eDOCS as follows:

Drawers and Folders
The file cabinet Drawers contain the various Folders which contain the specific Documents. When you click on a drawer, the folders within that drawer display in the Folders section. When you click on a folder, the documents within that folder display in the Documents section. The standard drawers provided in CGM webPRACTICE are My Documents, Patients and EOB's. The Patients and EOBs drawers correspond to the Patient and EOB tabs in the CGM eDOCS application. All other drawers correspond to the Other tab in the CGM eDOCS application.

The My Documents Drawer includes the Favorites folder, which contains documents you have marked as a 'Favorite' by clicking the 'Favorites' icon (the star and the plus sign) in the Selected Documents section. The Checked Out folder contains the documents that are currently checked-out to you.
 


The Patients Drawer contains folders for all patient accounts that have documents attached to them. All of the documents processed through the Patient tab in the CGM eDOCS application are available in this drawer and the corresponding patient folder. You can type a patient's name or account number in the Lookup field to search for a patient from the Folders list.

The EOBs drawer contains folders that correspond to the EOB image types that you create in Maintain Image Types. All documents processed through the EOB tab in the CGM eDOCS application are available in this drawer and corresponding folder.

All other drawers are used for handling documents processed through the Other tab in the CGM eDOCS application. The drawers listed correspond to the Folder Type selected for the document in CGM eDOCS and the folders contained in these drawers correspond to the Folder selected for the document in CGM eDOCS.

You can add a new drawer or new folder as needed by clicking New Drawer or New Folder. The field becomes active so you can type the name of the new drawer or new folder and then click Save.

When you save a new drawer name, the 'CGM eDOCS - Drawer Properties' dialog box opens. Click to select the document type(s) you want to include for this Drawer. (Ctrl+click to select multiple document types.)

If you right-click on an 'Other' Drawer name or Folder name, additional editing options display.
