The medical record of a dental patient is a document for identifying a patient. The medical card describes the features of the condition and changes in his health.

All data of the medical record are filled in by the doctor and confirmed by the data of instrumental, laboratory and hardware studies. In addition, the medical record reflects all the features and stages of treatment.

For each dental patient, several documents are drawn up, which include informed voluntary consent to dental treatment, consent to the processing of personal data and a medical record of the dental patient.

We were told about the rules for their registration at the RaTiKa dental clinic (Yekaterinburg).

Medical card of a dental patient

As early as October 4, 1980, Form 043 / y was approved by Order of the Ministry of Health of the USSR No. 1030, which was intended specifically for maintaining records of dental patients.

Dentists were required to strictly adhere to this form, but already in 1988 the above order was canceled. Since then, no law has been issued to order dentists to use a specific form of medical record. However, on November 30, 2009, the Ministry of Health and Social Development of the Russian Federation issued a letter in which it recommended that doctors use the old forms to keep records of their activities (for dentists - 043 / y).

The current legislation recommends (but does not oblige) the use of form 043 / y for medical records of dental patients. However, it is most convenient to keep patient records in the appropriate programs for managing dentistry.

Most clinics do use this form, but often slightly convert it to a more convenient format, for example, instead of A5, they print in A4 size or make other minor changes.

The medical card of a dental patient is filled out at the first visit of the patient to the dental clinic. Personal data (name, gender, age, and so on) are filled in by a nurse or dental administrator, and the rest of the card is filled out exclusively by the attending physician.

Rules for issuing a medical card for a dental patient by a doctor

  1. The card contains information about the diagnosis and complaints of the patient.
  2. The diagnosis is entered into the card after the examination.
  3. It is possible to clarify the diagnosis or completely change it. When making amendments, the date must be indicated.
  4. It is important to note the presence of concomitant diseases of the patient or those significant for dental procedures, diseases that he has already suffered.
  5. It is necessary to describe how the current disease develops, to include data obtained during an objective study, information about the bite, the condition of the mucous membrane, oral cavity, gums, alveolar processes, and palate.
  6. X-rays, laboratory tests must also be in the dental patient's chart.

Each of them should record their stages of treatment on a separate insert and then place them on the card.

Rules for storing medical records

  • The medical card must always be in, it is not issued to the patient at home. But we recommend that you give the patient a special form with you, which indicates the date of the next visit. You can develop and release it yourself or use one offered by partner companies, such as a toothpaste manufacturer.
  • Considered a legal document, the card must be kept for 5 years from the day the patient last visited dentistry and a corresponding entry was made on the card. The document is then archived.
  • The contents of medical records should exclude the possibility of breach of confidentiality and illegal access to them, so it is best to keep them under lock and key.

Informed voluntary consent for dental treatment

Dental services are included in the "List of certain types of medical interventions for which citizens give informed voluntary consent when choosing a doctor and a medical organization for receiving primary health care", which was approved on April 23, 2012 by the Ministry of Health and Social Development of the Russian Federation. By signing this document, the patient testifies that he is voluntarily treated in dentistry, he was explained in detail the need for certain procedures, the plan of which is prescribed in his medical record. The client demonstrates an understanding of possible outcomes, existing risks, and alternative treatment options. He is aware of the possible side effects of the planned treatment (pain, discomfort, swelling of the face, sensitivity to cold / heat, etc.). The patient also confirms his understanding that the treatment plan may change in the process.

The document can be signed by the patient himself or by an authorized person (if there is a document confirming the right to represent his interests).

Consent to the processing of personal data

This document gives the organization the right to process the patient's personal data (name, date of birth, type of identity document, and so on) in accordance with existing legislation. If the patient is a minor, then the consent to the processing of personal data is signed by the parents or legal representatives.

Since the creation of the modern structure of dental care, the medical record of the dental patient has been its basic element. It existed when other documents, without which it is impossible to imagine the work of a modern clinic, (contract, protocol of voluntary informed consent, insurance policy, etc.) were not yet known at all.

At the same time, many dental clinics completely or partially ignore the role of the dental patient's medical record: they either do not use it at all, or modernize, modify, invent their own options. And if the use of various variations on the theme of the medical record of a dental patient can be understood (in many respects, the existing form is already lagging behind the requirements of the time), then the complete absence of a medical record is completely unacceptable.

What is a dental patient's medical record?

The medical record of a dental patient is a document that properly identifies the patient and contains information characterizing the features of the condition and changes in the state of his health, established by the doctor and confirmed by the data of laboratory, instrumental and hardware studies, as well as the stages and features of the treatment.

Registration of a medical card of a dental patient -

The medical record of a dental patient is issued in accordance with the orders of the USSR Ministry of Health No. 1030 dated 04.10.1980 and No. 1338 dated 12.31.1987. At the same time, the Ministries of Health of the USSR and the Russian Federation managed to arrange extreme confusion with the medical record. In 1988, an order of the Ministry of Health of the USSR (No. 750 dated 05.10.1988) was issued, according to which the order of the Ministry of Health No. 1030 became invalid. However, another, newer Ministry of Health, now the Russian Federation, since 1993 began to regularly refer to the provisions of the order of the Ministry of Health of the USSR No. 1030, making appropriate changes and additions to it.

There are no later basic orders or other acts of the Ministry of Health of Russia establishing the form of a medical card. Therefore, although many provisions of Order No. 1030 have become invalid, references periodically appear in new regulatory documents to those parts of the order that relate to the maintenance of medical records. In particular, the requirement remains that all medical institutions (we note, regardless of the form of ownership) are required to keep medical records of the established form. In dentistry, this is Form No. 043 / y "Medical record of a dental patient."

What does a medical card include?

Medical card No. 043 / y contains three main sections.

1) First section- passport part. It includes:

  • Card number;
  • the date of its issuance;
  • surname, name and patronymic of the patient;
  • patient's age;
  • gender of the patient;
  • address (place of registration and place of permanent residence);
  • profession;
  • initial diagnosis;
  • information about past and concomitant diseases;
  • information about the development of the present (which became the reason for the primary treatment) disease.

This section may be supplemented by passport data (series, number, date and place of issue) for persons over 14 years of age, and birth certificate data for persons under 14 years of age.

2) Second section- objective research data. He contains:

  • external examination data;
  • oral examination data and a table of the condition of the teeth, filled out using officially accepted abbreviations (absent - O, root - R, caries - C, pulpitis - P, periodontitis - Pt, filled - P, periodontal disease - A, mobility - I, II, III (degree), crown - K, artificial tooth - I);
  • bite description;
  • description of the state of the oral mucosa, gums, alveolar processes and palate;
  • X-ray and laboratory data.

3) Third section- a common part. It consists of:

  • survey plan;
  • treatment plan;
  • features of treatment;
  • records of consultations, consultations;
  • clarified formulations of clinical diagnoses, etc.

Some features of the medical card

The material and type of the medical record of the dental patient does not matter much. It can be made in a clinic or printed way and, as a rule, is an A5 notebook. The main requirement is that it be on paper and have records in the form approved by law. The passport part is issued by a medical registrar, clinic administrator or nurse.

All other entries in the medical record are made only by a doctor, legibly, without corrections (a printed (computer) version of making an entry is possible), using only generally accepted abbreviations. The wording of diagnoses, anatomical formations, the names of instruments and medicines are indicated in full, without abbreviations, taking into account the officially used terminology. The entry made is confirmed by the signature and personal seal of the doctor.

In addition to the entries, the following must be entered in the medical record (pasted):

  • test results (if any) - originals or copies;
  • extracts from other medical institutions where dental care was provided, especially if dental care was provided in other institutions after the patient first applied (began to be observed) in this dental clinic;
  • medical opinions, expert opinions, consultations received in connection with the diseases for which the patient is observed in this clinic;
    medical opinions, expert opinions, consultations received in connection with other diseases, the course of which may affect the characteristics of a dental disease;
  • information on oncological examinations (on the basis of the order of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation "On measures to improve the organization of oncological care for the population of the Russian Federation" No. 270 dated September 12, 1997);
  • information on the doses of radiation exposure received by the patient during X-ray examinations (based on the order of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation “On the introduction of state statistical monitoring of exposure doses to personnel and the public” No. 466 dated December 31, 1999);
  • x-rays of the patient's teeth and maxillofacial area, performed in this dental clinic.

Let's take a closer look at the last point. Of the entire evidence base that is used by the parties when considering consumer claims in court in connection with the quality of the services provided, x-rays are of the greatest importance. Why? For example, let's analyze a controversial situation that occurs most often.

The patient treated his teeth in several clinics and took his x-rays everywhere after the end of the treatment. At the same time, of course, in all clinics there were certain documents confirming the fact of treatment (contracts for the provision of services, entries in the medical record, receipts for payment, checks, etc.). In one of the clinics, during treatment, an instrument broke off in the canal of the tooth. However, the patient did not sue the clinic where the instrument was broken, but the richest of those where he was treated.

At the same time, it is practically impossible to prove the absence of the fault of the clinic indicated in the claim if the clinic cannot present an x-ray taken after the completion of the treatment. That is why the clinic is extremely interested that all the images taken by the patient remain with her. However, there are certain legal difficulties here.

The fact is that radiography is usually included in the price list by clinics as a separate type of service. And on the basis of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation and the Law "On Protection of Consumer Rights", the patient has the right to regard the performed x-ray as a paid service, the material expression (result) of which is an x-ray. Accordingly, the patient acquires the full right to take this picture for himself.

Of course, this situation does not suit the clinic at all. Therefore, the clinic usually uses the following exit options:

  1. include in the Contract for the provision of dental services a clause according to which the x-rays performed in the clinic are an integral part of the medical record of the dental patient. In this case, all images taken in the clinic remain its property on the basis of an agreement concluded with the patient.
  2. give the patient not the image itself, but its image on paper or other media - for example, a copy from a visiograph, or a printout of a scanned image.

However, all of the above applies to the medical record of the dental patient form No. 043 / y. If the dental clinic uses its own form of medical record, then it can have serious problems during the trial. The fact is that the patient can file a petition for the clinic to provide evidence of a medical record of a dental patient of a statutory form (form No. 043 / y).

In this case, the provision by the dental clinic of a medical card of a different form may be interpreted by the court as a formal basis for recognizing this form as not complying with the requirements of the law, and on this basis the card may not be accepted as written evidence. And this will allow you to ignore all the entries made in the card and give the patient reason to accuse the clinic of improper record keeping.

Since this form of the map is really morally outdated and does not fully reflect both changes in civil legislation and new diagnostic and treatment standards, its certain modernization becomes inevitable. Therefore, in dentistry, as a way out of this situation, an insert sheet to the medical record (information sheet) is used, taking into account the specific features of a particular clinic. It is much worse for the dental clinic if the medical record of the dental patient is not kept at all.
