Visitors will stop counting against bed/room limitations setting
when a visitor checks in, passagepoint increments a patients visitor count by 1
Because most hospitals typically do not sign out visitors, once a visitor physically leaves, this counter does not decrement.
To address this, PassagePoint has a feature to autodecrement based on time in minutes.
Login as a user with Admin privileges and do:
if your version is 6445 or lower
Home > configure > HL7 integration
"Visitors will stop counting against bed/room limitations 30 minutes after sign-in"
if your version is 6446 or higher
Home > configure > HL7 integration > Logging Settings
"Visitors will stop counting against bed/room limitations 30 minutes after sign-in"
