5 Block Management

Use this workflow when you want to add a block to a resource schedule in Oracle Health Patient Administration.

Note:

Blocks added in Oracle Health Patient Administration are not visible in Scheduling Appointment Book (SchApptBook.exe) and are not recognized when you schedule an appointment using this product. If a site continues to maintain shared calendars across the executables (for example, a physician who has perioperative scheduling and physician practice scheduling), Oracle recommends that you use block slots as part of a resource's default schedule so that time is appropriately accounted for in all scheduling systems. Resource default schedules can be managed as part of a resource's regularly applied default schedule or ad hoc in Revenue Cycle. See Ad Hoc Resource Schedule Change Workflowfor more information.
