Key Phrases: How to Edit Agency Key Phrases

This will cover the process of adding and editing Agency Key Phrases. Agency Key Phrases can be created and pushed to all End Users. To be able to Add/Edit Agency Key Phrases, you must have the “Edit Agency Phrases” permission item enabled. This workflow can be used by System Administrators. To initiate this workflow, navigate to any screen that has the option “Add/Edit Key Phrases” in the 3-dot icon, in the top right of the screen.

Note: If Users want to duplicate a County/CalMHSA Key Phrase for personal use, there is no shortcut to push into “My Phrases.” If this is desired, click into the phrase’s textbox and manually copy and paste into “My Phrases.”

Key Phrase Categories

CalMHSA has created categories to help with organization of Keyphrases.  

  • Personal Key Phrases 
  • Client History Key Phrases 
  • MSE/PE Key Phrases 
  • Consents Key Phrases 
  • Supervisors/Attendings Key Phrases 
  • County Key Phrases 
  • CalMHSA Key Phrases (Do NOT edit) – CalMHSA will create these Key Phrases to push down to counties/end users. 

These categories will appear in both My Keyphrases and Agency Keyphrases  

Counties can add additional ones as they see fit (eg clinic/unit specific, by disease state etc). Please contact your county EHR admin to assist. 

Users can copy and paste Keyphrases from one category to another.  Do not edit any of the text that are within “CalMHSA Keyphrases.”

Functional Key Phrases

These functional keyphrases are denoted with the following angle brackets “<   >” and allows the system to distinguish the code that between desired data to be pushed into Keyphrases and simple text. 

These keyphrases can be found under the Agency’s category “CalMHSA Keyphrases (DO NOT EDIT)” and can be copy and pasted into other Key Phrases and/or categories
