Update Linked Addresses & Phone Numbers

When you change address fields or contact details for a patient or responsible party, you have the opportunity to change linked records to match. In some cases, you must refresh the record before the update form appears.

Example address change update form.

Example phone number / email change update form.

Select records to update - Click the box beside individual records to update, or use the Select All and Select None buttons.

Update family address - (Address change update only.) Updating the Family Address changes the address that appears on the Family tab of all patient folders linked to the family. (Note that editing the address directly from the Family tab does not automatically update the patient or responsible party addresses.) See "Patient Folder Family Tab" for details.

Existing data required - You can update the address fields of a linked record only if the record already had data entered in that field. For example, if you change the Address 2 for a responsible party, then choose to update all linked records with the new information, only records that already had data in the Address 2 field will be updated.
