Search for Duplicate
Check the following details for matches:
First and Last name

Date of Birth

Address
-
Work must be completed using the profile, which contains a confirmed address only. If demographic details are updated within the platform, be sure to create a Work Item.
-
Addresses may vary based on recent moves, snowbirds, etc. (If the patient cannot confirm both addresses, you must send an email to the SOS team using the appropriate template.)
Phone number
-
Work must be completed using the appropriate patient profile based on research, be sure to create a Work Item if any demographic details are updated within the platform.
-
Phone numbers may vary based on recent change, cell vs home, etc. (If patient cannot confirm either phone number, send request to SOS team using the appropriate template.)
NOTE: MRN does not need to match to confirm a duplicate. If no MRN exists on one or both profiles, follow all regular steps for determining duplicate profile

Notes
HME may have provided a reason for the new creation and inadvertently forgotten to the inactive old profiles.
Steps After Duplicate Confirmed
Our first attempt to resolve should always be to contact the HME while the patient is on the phone.
Able to Reach HME by Phone
Scripting Guidelines: Hello, this is <CSRNAME> with ResMed ReSupply. I have a patient on the other line calling regarding <REASON>. Upon locating the patient in our system, I noticed a possible duplicate patient record and wanted to quickly review with you which record we should keep active.
Once you have verified the patient records are duplicated, have the HME deactivate the incorrect record. If the HME requires assistance with this process, refer them to their SOS contact.
Unable to Reach HME by Phone
Create a Customer Message Work Item on the patient profile that should be kept active and include the following information:
-
Patient ID(s): One or both, if different
-
Information that indicates patient records may be duplicates (Patient ID, Name, DoB, phone number):
-
Profile that appears, or patient has indicated, is more up-to-date (recent SR, current or updated demographics, patient portal activity).
NOTE: If one patient is inactive - No Task is Required.
