Outpatient card

Outpatient cards are an important document, which is a card for the patient, prescribing various stages of his treatment and observation. It is compiled for patients in an “outpatient” state who do not require constant care and round-the-clock monitoring. Some patients are considered bedridden and require appropriate care at home or inpatient treatment, and the card is used to create a database characterizing the patient’s health, the occurrence of complications, previous operations and other nuances and aspects of the medical history. An outpatient card must be created in accordance with generally accepted medical practice and within the framework of the legislation of the Russian Federation. At the same time, there are federal uniform requirements for organizing and maintaining an individual outpatient health card. The preparation of medical documents based on existing rules and recommendations reflects the process of providing medical care to the patient by therapists and other specialists who have experience working with such cards.

The outpatient card template includes the following fields, which are filled out during the initial appointment and subsequently during the patient’s treatment process:

Patient's name Address Date of birth Preferred date of visit SNILS Compulsory medical insurance data Name of the insurance company and its number Compulsory medical insurance policy status (permanently valid, temporary). Information about
