There are different status' a case can take. These are 'Awaiting First Appointment', 'In Treatment ,'On Hold', 'Discharged' and 'Incomplete'. Cases can also be in a 'Locked/Unlocked' state.
Awaiting First Appointment: A case will be in this state if it is not linked to an appointment within TM3.
In Treatment: A case will be in this state when a patient is currently receiving treatment within your clinic.
On Hold: A case will be in this state if the patient is currently out of treatment in your clinic but will be returning. A situation where someone is on hold could be they are going back to their insurance company to get more treatment authorisations.
Discharged: A case will be in this state when it has been discharged. This will also show what date it was discharged on. Once a case has been discharged the status cannot change.
Incomplete: A case can be incomplete for 3 reasons:
When a consultation within the case is not linked to an appointment
A consultation is complete but has not been locked
A case has been discharged but it has not been locked
