IHS Training (RPMS)
How do you manage Resource and Patient Information?
The Resource and Patient Management System (RPMS) is an integrated solution for the management of clinical, business practice and administrative information in healthcare facilities of various sizes. Flexible hardware configurations, over 50 software applications, and appropriate network communication components combine to provide a comprehensive clinical, financial, and administrative solution. This solution is in use at most health care facilities within the Indian health care delivery system. The training for this database software is continually being provided by the Northwest Portland Area Indian Health Board in cooperation with the Indian Health Service. All students are welcome from around the nation. Up to date courses are offered in RPMS by knowledgeable instructors using the latest computer equipment and software.

The RPMS Behavioral Health System v4.0 provides a new graphical user interface to the Behavioral Health System application. BHS v4.0 GUI replaces the Patient Chart application but still provides the behavioral health clinician with a familiar and user-friendly Windows-like interface. This training is intended to help users transition from the Patient Chart application to the BHS v4.0 GUI. The focus of this training is on direct provider entry of clinical data and the new functionality in BHS v4.0 GUI. Some of the new functionality featured in this training includes electronic signature, enhanced intake functionality, simplified data entry, and modified reports. The Reports and Manager Utilities modules of BHS v4.0 are not in the GUI format and an introduction to these functions will be conducted in the RPMS traditional “roll and scroll” format.
Over the course of the two-day training the following areas will be covered:
Data Entry Menu: to record, display and print clinical data related to client care including individual and group encounters, treatment plans, suicide reporting forms and case management information
Reports Menu: An introduction to tracking and managing patient, provider, and program activities and statistics
Manager Utilities Menu: An introduction to setting site-specific parameters related to security, program management and exporting data to the Area offices and HQE
