Administration of the Pain Management Evaluation
For Doctors
When a medical practice joins TestSTAT we set up a special entry point to the software unique to that practice called the Doctor's Portal. You set up the billing clinicians and assistants who will be using the PME and enter details like the practice name and address (used on the letterhead of the reports that are generated). Each clinician enters the email address where they want PME reports sent to. Within your practice's Portal you will see all patients arranged in order of the date they took the PME and you can open and review their test protocol or their final report.
Once you are set up, you can either access the Doctor's Portal directly, or if you forget the hyperlink–simply visit the home page of this website which will open the entry portal and click on:
ManageMyPatients
You'll need your email address and a password to enter the portal. Once you "are in" you enter a patient's demographics to get a new Referral Code for a new testing. You can choose a report name like the Pain Management Evaluation or Health & Wellness Lifestyle Evaluation, etc. to access different scoring algorithms to yield a different reports–or we can even design a custom report for you. Note down the Referral Code that is assigned to a new patient and use it as follows:
For Patients
A patient with a Referral Code can enter the Patient Portal (on any iPad or computer) with any browser at TestMyPain.com. There they can click on:
Take the Pain & Wellness Evaluation
A patient can do this at home, but we advise doing the test in the doctor's office with an assistant present to proctor and help the patient. The assistant sets up the patient through the Patient Portal on the iPad and enters their Referral Code. S/he would also get height, weight, BP measures from the medical record or take the measures and enter them. Information about how to properly take these measurements follows in the next section.
