Angelix Codes

Angelixes are UI indicators that appear throughout AngelTrack, to help you double-check that you are viewing the correct patient's records.

What Is an Angelix Code?

An Angelix is a small visual indication of a patient's identity. It is used as a shorthand way to quickly visually check whether the page you are working in belongs to the same patient as you are viewing in a different browser tab.

Here is an example:

The Angelix shown above is the colored code "EA5#9", representing a young female patient named Amy Evans.

Using letters, numbers, and colors, it encodes this information about the patient:

• Last initial

• First initial

• Gender (shown as the color of the initials)

• Date of birth (encoded as colored digits)

The information is encoded in a unique way, so that each patient's Angelix looks different than those of other patients.

As you are working a call through the billing process, and you have several tabs open for it plus a dozen more tabs associated with other calls, each page's Angelix give you a quick subconscious check that you're looking at the correct patient.

Where Do Angelixes Appear?

Angelixes appear on all AngelTrack pages which are associated with a patient record. These include:

• Dispatch Create

• Dispatch Edit

• Dispatch Cancel

• QA Review Edit

• Coding

• Payment Event Add / Edit

• PCR printouts (when not retrieved in PDF format)

...and other places in the UI where appropriate.

If you discover a new place in the UI where an Angelix would be valuable, please let us know.

When Does a Patient's Angelix Code Change?

Very rarely.

A patient's Angelix code changes if any of the following datafields ever change:

• First letter of first name;

• First letter of last name;

• Date of birth; or

• Gender.

Obviously it's rare for these fields to change. When a patient's gender is initially unknown, their initials will appear in green, later turning pink or blue once the gender field is answered.
