Introduction<br />

Welcome to MOSAIQ <strong>Radiation</strong> <strong>Oncologist</strong> <strong>Training</strong>. This book is your guide to<br />

unlocking the possibilities of MOSAIQ 1.20 application software, hereafter referred to<br />

as MOSAIQ. It is designed to be used during your instructor-led training, and as a<br />

handy desk reference any time you need a quick reminder how to do something in<br />

MOSAIQ. We recommend that you keep this book near your workstation so you can<br />

find it easily when needed.<br />

This training guide is not intended to replace the MOSAIQ documentation, which is<br />

contained in the MOSAIQ Help system. The MOSAIQ Help system provides indepth<br />

information on all available MOSAIQ features.<br />

The MOSAIQ <strong>Radiation</strong> <strong>Oncologist</strong> <strong>Training</strong> is an Intermediate course covering topics for<br />

<strong>Radiation</strong> <strong>Oncologist</strong>s. MOSAIQ is a standardized Windows application; this<br />

means that many aspects of the components are similar. Once you learn how to use<br />

one type of component, using other components of the same type is easy and intuitive.<br />

This course assumes that you have basic Windows skills and have taken, and are<br />

familiar with, the concepts presented in MOSAIQ General Introduction <strong>Training</strong>. Topics<br />

presented in this course build upon the concepts learned in the General Introduction.<br />

What’s In This Course<br />

In this course, you will review the MOSAIQ user interface, view the scheduling<br />

system and code-capturing system, view patient information, and enter diagnosis<br />

information. This course will not teach you the basics on using MOSAIQ, which are<br />

covered in the General Introduction.<br />

Note that when you are working in the practice database, all activities are enabled for<br />

the practice ID. In your clinical database, you may or may not have security rights to<br />

do all the activities that you will do in this course.<br />

For this training guide, we recommend that you use the Practice Database and create a<br />

fictitious patient to use throughout the lessons.

Logging On and Navigating within MOSAIQ<br />

When you first start MOSAIQ, you are required to log on to the system. Two<br />

databases are installed on your network. One contains your facility’s patient data,<br />

referred to as the Clinical database. The other contains fictitious patients, referred to as<br />

the Practice database.<br />

There are two MOSAIQ icons installed on your workstation: MOSAIQ and Practice.<br />

When you use the Practice icon with the ID and password in this lesson, you<br />

automatically access the Practice database. When you use the MOSAIQ icon and your<br />

real ID and password, you access the Clinical database. The Practice database is used<br />

for all the exercises in this <strong>Training</strong> <strong>Guide</strong>.<br />

In the following exercises, you will start MOSAIQ and log on to the Practice database,<br />

then navigate around the main window, and use the menus and toolbar.<br />

Logging on to MOSAIQ<br />

In this exercise, you will log on to MOSAIQ.<br />

1. On the Windows desktop, double-click the MOSAIQ Practice icon.<br />

Starts MOSAIQ, then displays the Staff Login dialog box, shown in Figure 1.<br />

Figure 1: Staff Login Dialog Box<br />

The Staff Login dialog box contains the following fields and buttons:<br />

User Name Specifies your MOSAIQ login ID. Note that your MOSAIQ<br />

ID may be different from your network ID.<br />

Password Specifies your MOSAIQ login password. Note that your<br />

MOSAIQ password may differ from your network password.<br />

Accepts your user ID and password and logs you on to the<br />

system.<br />

Cancels login and closes the Staff Login dialog box.<br />

Displays a dialog box you can use to change your password<br />

and is only available after you have logged in to the system.<br />

Notice that the User Name and Password field labels display in red. A red label<br />

indicates that the field is required. Red labels for required fields are standard<br />

throughout MOSAIQ.


<strong>Radiation</strong> <strong>Oncologist</strong> <strong>Training</strong> <strong>Guide</strong><br />

Notes Using the MOSAIQ User Interface<br />

The MOSAIQ user interface, consisting of the Home view (shown earlier) and the<br />

Chart view (shown later), enables you to quickly access the information that you use<br />

most often, such as schedules, appointments, and the Quality Checklist. The My Work<br />

List pane combines work list items from across MOSAIQ. It displays the items in one<br />

view, enabling you to work on assigned tasks without navigating to separate areas. In<br />

this exercise, we will explore the MOSAIQ user interface using the My Work List<br />

pane.<br />

1. In the My Work List pane, click next to the Schedule work list.<br />

Displays your scheduled appointments, shown in Figure 10.<br />

Figure 10: My Work List Pane Showing Scheduled Appointments<br />

Depending on your configuration, the Schedule work list may display the scheduled<br />

appointments for different time frames, such as the current day or week. You can<br />

configure each one of the other work lists as well.<br />

For information on configuring the MOSAIQ user interface,<br />

including the Home view, see LPNMSQ0009, MOSAIQ Home<br />

Notes<br />

Using Notes<br />

There are three types of patient notes available in the MOSAIQ system:<br />

Dialog Box<br />

Specific<br />

Notes attached to any dialog box that displays a Notes button.<br />

The note is specific to the current patient.<br />

General Notes related to the patient chart, but which are not attached to<br />

any specific dialog box.<br />

eCHART<br />

Checklist<br />

When you perform a chart check using the eCHART Checklist,<br />

an electronic patient note is automatically generated. Note that<br />

this feature must be turned on in Department Setup to save the<br />

Lesson 3 Entering<br />

Diagnosis<br />

Information<br />

Objectives<br />

You will learn how to:<br />

• Enter diagnosis and staging information<br />

• Affirm a diagnosis<br />

• View the Diagnosis and Problem List<br />

• Add additional diagnoses<br />

Defining radiation prescriptions is a basic part of the clinical chart in MOSAIQ. But<br />

before you can define the prescription, you must enter a diagnosis. eCHART<br />

contains the <strong>Oncology</strong> Diagnosis dialog box for entering diagnosis and staging<br />

information as recommended by the AJCC. The information in the dialog box<br />

includes the data set recommended by JCAHO for accreditation of a comprehensive<br />

cancer program, the patient’s diagnosis per IDC-O, and the tumor stage per AJCC<br />

standards.<br />

Keep in mind that a course of radiation therapy as defined in MOSAIQ includes not<br />

only the primary site, but all sites related to the primary. For example, if a patient<br />

has a lung tumor and bone metastases related to the lung site, then both the primary<br />

tumor and the bone metastases would be treated under Course 1. However, if a<br />

patient comes in with a new primary site, that site and all related metastases would<br />

be treated under Course 2.<br />

In this lesson, you will enter diagnosis and staging information, affirm a diagnosis,<br />

view the Diagnosis and Problem List dialog box, and add related diagnoses.<br />

To admit a new patient, you must have Administrative | New<br />

Patient | Modify security rights.<br />

To view the Diagnoses and Interventions window and the<br />

Diagnosis and Problem List dialog box, you must have<br />

Clinical | General | View rights.<br />

To enter and affirm a diagnosis, you must also have Clinical<br />

| Diag/Staging | Modify rights.

What’s Next<br />

You can add to or edit existing diagnosis and staging<br />

information at any time during treatment. This is useful if<br />

you have an incomplete diagnosis when the patient begins<br />

treatment, but need to complete the information later. You<br />

can also delete a diagnosis until a related activity occurs,<br />

such as a captured charge. However, once a related activity<br />

has occurred, you cannot delete a diagnosis, you can only<br />

change it.<br />

• Congratulations! You have finished the <strong>Radiation</strong> <strong>Oncologist</strong> Module I training<br />
