NOTE: Once you have created the spreadsheet, email it to diagnosticproservices@nuance.com. An Optimization Consultant will work with you to ensure your Procedure Master Translator is ready for import. |
To create the Procedure Master Translator, begin by exporting the procedure codes from your own billing or RIS system. Refer to your RIS system’s documentation for information on how to export the codes. Be sure to export them in the form of an Excel spreadsheet (.xls format). The columns in the spreadsheet can be in any order from left to right. You do not need to include a row of column headings, but these are helpful. Any empty rows will be ignored; you do not need to delete them.
The following illustration shows an example of an Excel spreadsheet containing the data exported from a RIS system:
The MAMMO column is an optional fifth column if you intend to use the database's built-in BI-RADS codes.
NOTE: If you have multiple clinical codes for one line item, place them in the same cell, using a comma to separate them. |
