This page contains relevant information regarding the triage dispositions, triage configurations and outcomes.

Capita triage dispositions

Capita’s Clinical Content offers over 30 different dispositions (representing next steps or levels of care for the patient). The dispositions include both the type of service that is required (for example, ED, MD, Dentist) and the timeframe to seek assistance (with nine levels of priority from immediate to nonurgent), ensuring patients are guided to the most appropriate level of care first time. Dispositions include mental health, dentists, diabetes, sexual health, poison control, amongst others.

Capita Triage Configurations

You can pass an optional configuration object to the Capita triage when extending triage in a custom scenario. The configurations override any options you have set in the management portal (Configuration > Medical > Triage > Capita).

Screenshot of passing arguments to Capita subscenario

When passing the arguments to the Capita scenario, you only need the path to the configuration property and the new value (you don't need to include the other information such as the doc or the default). For example, to disable the message that shows the possible causes, you would pass this configuration:


"configuration": {
    "causes":{
        "show_causes": false
    }
}

Below is the full list of the available configurations.
