Remove a Block From a Resource Schedule

Note:

Blocks added in Patient Administration System 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 Cerner 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 Workflow in Revenue Cycle Scheduling for more information.

Complete the following steps to remove a block:

  1. Locate the block that you want to remove. From the Block Actions menu, select Remove Block. The Remove Block dialog box is displayed.
  2. Is the block that you want to remove a single block or recurring block?
    • If a single block, select Delete Block.
    • If a recurring block, select whether you are deleting this block or all occurrences, then select Delete Block.
  3. The block is removed from the resource schedule. If the block was previously causing a block conflict, the conflict is removed when the block is removed.

Note:

If a reschedule request was generated in Millennium Platform when the block conflict was created, the request is completed when the block conflict is removed.
